PI Squadron Report #12
29 May 2003


CMDR'S CORNER

**Salute** to Pi Squadron

Just wanted to start this report off with a congratulations to Pi on retaining 4th place runner in SSL for Week #5. All this and still only having 5 of 6  flying, so we did great. Well it looks as though we'll be losing CM Kalve Ryder since he has yet to check in and or report his status as to why he hasn't been active for over 4 weeks now, I will have him sent to the RSVs cuz all he would do later is hurt the squadron due to lack of activity or contact.

We still have to continue pounding our push for SSL. The reason is I'm sure other squadrons may back out or simply stop participating. So with this in mind if we stick to it, we should come out of this doing pretty good. Not that I'm saying were bad, cuz we're doing great, no really you guys are doing an outstanding job for what we have. Its just that the other squads have atleast one more member to fly the bloody mission and we're behind one member in flying and if we had him flying then we might have been doing better from the start, get me?

Now its time for round #6 of SSL, so all I say for this is everyone fly it ASAP! Also we need to keep going on the Wing Top Gun comp, we're doing good, but we could be doing better, so get on the ball and fly this one as well.

I have to say I'm really sorry for the lateness of my report, but its due to a RL problem. I have had to assume the duties of Mom and Father for my son cuz my wife had to fly to Japan due to a death in the family. Albeit I'm keeping up with general activity and asking the members of Pi to help me out, but lemme say its tough having to deal with a 1 month old baby without mommy around :P But rest asurd I'm here if you need anything.

When the TC website gets back up and running I'll do the BSFs that I have in my inbox sitting there waiting for me to do. I'll also upload this squadron report as well. Since we're gonna be losing a member we need to work on recruitment of a new personnel. I don't care if its an old member or a reservist, just keep in mind that if it is a reservist ask them to atleast fly for the current ongoing comps we have. If nothing else these are what we need to get help with. Overall you guys are doing great with general activity, keep up the good work. Onto the semi-good stuff the squadron nitty gritty.

Remember lastly to Report in! at the least, an email at this point can be worth a thousand words. For those of you doing stuff I salute you :) and thanks for the work your doing. I would also like to see Pi and the wing get more peeps, so go recruit!


RECRUIT! If you actively recruit members to PI Squadron and you get three of them, then I will award you an ISM for recruiting them. The only stipulation is that they must graduate the academy if they are there, then join the PI and stay for a minimum of 2 weeks while being active :P , if they are old farts (RSV returnees or others), then they must remain and be active for 2 weeks. The total amount to get an ISM, is for recruiting 3 members to PI. Once this goal gets reached then I will submit a request for you to receive an ISM. Make sure you remind me or I'll forget :P
Online report in case you'd rather see it this way :P

CHAIN OF COMMAND
NOTE: Remember there is a chain of command which is in place, shown below this paragraph is the order in which it is to be used.
  1. Flight Officer
  2. BGCOM
  3. COM
  4. WC
  5. CMDR
  6. FL
  7. FM
So this by itself should give you an idea how things work in the Imperial Military. There is an orderly way of doing things and that means you must utilize the chain of command. And believe me when I say this if you don't, or chose not to, it can seriously work against you. Ship board matters needs to be dealt with using this chain. If there is a problem, it should be handled here and only here, there is no reason why anyone outside of this ship would need to help us with an internal matter, unless it's obvious that it should go beyond our immediate chain of command in order to be fixed.
PILOT FILE SUBMISSION STUFF
Don't forget when submitting a pilot file for me to BSF I would ask that you put your pilot in the below format:

3319TIETC10 (where the first number is your PIN, the second is the platform type which you flew, the last is the # of the battle flown. In the case of TIE-FREEs put TF, for the rest: DB, IW etc, you get the idea, if not email me and I'll personally explain it. This makes it easier for me to BSF, cuz in the case of those who don't add their PIN to their email, then I'll atleast have it, by labeling it this way.)

Cya next week!

CLOSING EXTRAS
Great Job Pi! Now go get to your fighters we have another round of SSL to do! Happy Hunting!

Have a good day! Cya next week!

V/R,

In the Service of the Empire
