Squadron News
-Big news this week concern the arrival of a great veteran pilot to our squadron. I guess you already greeted him and stared at his chest full of decorations for a while :p
It is a pleasure to have him here, so in behalf of the squadron and the wing, I
Gentlemen, set up a nice party the way such a new member deserves ;)
-This also means that Kappa is at the Roster Record Happy Number once again, yay 11! I wonder when we'll get to the dreaded full strenght :p
-I want to make a special mention of yet another landmark in the Kappa non-stopping amazing achievements from our pilots, being this one pretty special as it is very close to us all as squadron. This time, once again from the hands of CM Algaron. He has researched and compiled the best squadron history so far, going back to the reopening of Wing II. He did a fantastc job, for those of you who didn't read it yet, I suggest you do it, as is interesting, fun to read and inspring all at the same time.
For his efforts he got a Palpatine Crescent, which he must wear with pride as it's one of the most well earned medals I witnessed in my career, even though he deserves much more.
Great job Algy. ;)
-FRIDAY FRIDAY FRIDAY FRIDAY!!!!
*whassup now with him...he must have sniffed that one month old bantha stake that was growing fungus on the Hatch*
NONONONONONO!!!!
FRIDAY FRIDAY FRIDAY FRIDAY!!!!
Yes gentlemen, Friday is the DEADLINE for Kappa vs Wraith!!! I'm still missing submissions. WE NEED 100%!!!

-Tim has changed his mail addy because of some troubles he had on receiving mails. Be sure to update your adress books. The new one is tiecorps@swirve.com
-Talking about pilots doing great things and LCM Tim at the same time, it only can lead to another announcement. The TAC office has released Tim's first battle, and he earned a MoT-Rh for it!! It's listed as TC-TIE 173, so I want you all to fly it, I want that citation on our roster ASAP. Congrats Tim ;)
-And since we're on updating stuff, update your bookmarks too. With squadron.org dying recently, Algaron has moved the pages to a new servers, so the adresses are these:
Kappa Homepage: http://www21.brinkster.com/algaronx/kappa/
Flight II page: http://www21.brinkster.com/algaronx/flight2/

And while you update these, check out the new buttons and layout of the page. The page looks cooler than ever!! once again, great work Algaron.
(how many times did I write update?? sheesh :p)
-Wing II has a brand new e-group from the hands of our own Nurse Crush. As we are a "communication happy" wing, this comes as a bliss :p. The adress is wingii@yahoogroups.com, so go post your guts out an kill us all in annoyance :p
