Galbiati, Matteo -- from Italy. FSO staff but he was sent to the PAC RPF (Pacific Area Command, Rehabilitation Project Force) to avoid PR (Public Relations) flaps, as he was a very well liked OT VII Solo Nots C/S, well known to the public. Jill Graham was his "twin" whom he graduated from the PAC RPF with in 2001. She was also from AOLA, and last at the Orange County Universe Corps I believe. She DIED of cancer shortly after graduating the RPF. As Matteo didn't get a good "product" on Jill he was blamed for her death (despite the fact that it was more than likely lack of medical treatment that caused her untimely demise), Matteo was sent back to the RPF to do the program all over again. Matteo was Sea Org FSO staff since the mid 1980s; he joined with his whole family when he was a young teenager. He was an outstanding kid and worked hard to become an auditor and advanced steadily up the levels with great pride. He was always encouraged to carry on which he did and came all the way to the top as a Solo NOTS C/S and on the Case level of OT VII himself. (No small achievement, as anyone in the Sea Org can attest.) As an auditor he was an expert in the skills required as a Class IX, NOTS auditor. He was a very hard worker and a dedicated Sea org member. As a Solo NOTS C/S he served thousands of OT VII auditors from all over the planet. He speaks at least 4 languages and was a major asset for FSO, and created millions of dollars in VSD (Value of Service Delivered, counted in $ for training and auditing) for the organization. He was very popular and very much liked by the home Solo NOTS auditors, so naturally he had to be sent away to another RPF far away from Flag, hidden in the basements of the big blue in PAC so he wouldn't be found or recognized by the public wondering as to where he had gone. His mother is still working at the FSO as a Class IX auditor, his brother Andrea was also an auditor at the FSO but is now SP declared. About 8 years ago or so, Andrea did the RPF program at Flag, graduated, but somehow got in trouble after that and got SP declared. His father, Giancarlo was on Solo NOTS and also was Sea Org staff at the FSO, but he got fed up with something and routed out and went back to Italy. Apparently he is living near Andrea and I recall Matteo telling me that they were running some kind of a business. He is "Black tagged" on the board at FSO as a Solo NOTS auditor, meaning that he's off the level and/or disaffected. At this stage Giancarlo is probably also SP declared if he is in contact with his "SP" son, Andrea. Matteo was working hard on his RPF program and wanted more than anything else to get back on the production lines of FSO. One reason is because of his beautiful wife Natalie, who is also a successful auditor and won an award recently for "Auditor of the Year". We saw the event on video here in the PAC RPF! Unfortunately, Matteo probably will never see his wife again, or it will be in years to come. Matteo got sick while on the RPF program and had to have heart surgery and now has a pacemaker. Off and on he faints and gets dizzy and even has to go to the hospital for checkups when his pacemaker fails. I saw him having to wear a heart monitor around the clock to check the functioning of his pacemaker. Whenever someone has to go to the hospital while on the RPF program a "security escort" of 2 other RPFers is required. All three persons that have to leave the base to go to the hospital have to get written approval from the RPF I/C and they have to pass e-meter security checks done by an ethics officer before leaving the base for "security" duty. Additionally, if you are working "on the decks" i.e. doing projects like making furniture in the mill for the smaller Class IV or V Organizations, you also have to get an approval from the In-charge of that work area, and sometimes even getting your own replacement is required, even though you are also "required" to act as security to accompany someone to the hospital. What a "Catch 22!" Most commonly you are required to "make up your decks time" using your own 5 hours a day study time, to "pay" for the exchange of accommodations. In other words, you are "granted the opportunity to redeem yourself" and in order to work on your RPF program 5 hours a day, you have to do physical work in form of cleaning jobs or construction/renovations at least 8 hours a day. No credit is granted for "overtime", which is frequently required to handle "Events" or other "hill 10s". The "exchange" in the form of food and shelter (of dubious quality) is to do renovations projects to upgrade the buildings or other projects. That's why you see the entire Big Blue being stained blue from bottom to top, some of the windows repaired and a lot of furniture built by the RPF forces.
