SHIELD SQUADRON REPORT #12 10/3/03

QUOTE OF THE WEEK

We’ll smoke those Al-Qaeda terrorists one by one.
-President Bush (smoke?)

MOMENT OF THE WEEK

`gunman - Is it legal to send a spy plane over another nation's territory?
`D - Erm
`D - Totally if you are America
`gunman - lol
`gunman - I really don't understand them
`gunman - They're complaining the plane was intercepted. It's like the spy plane is legal :P


SQUADRON NEWS:

-Flying activity was good this week. Loor and DV managed to impress me :)
-Unfortunately, RA Autoris had to retire due to RL military service. He was a great COM for our ship and we’ll sure miss him :(
-We also lost a pilot. MAJ Bobxavi left us to become CMDR of Ghost Squadron. Oh well… at least we now have 102 citations :P
-2 Weeks in and the Squadron of the Month race is as follows..

1st - SHIELD SQUADRON - 107 MISSIONS
2nd - Crossbow Squadron - 23 Missions
3rd - Sword Squadron - 21 Missions
4th - Hammer Squadron - 2 Missions

Pilot of the Month is equally one-sided..

1st - Darth Vader (Shield) - 44 Missions
2nd - Loor (Shield) - 25 Missions
3rd - Sarn Erec (Sword) - 20 Missions
=4th - Powerslave (Shield) - 17 Missions
=4th - Kurha Merino (Crossbow) - 17 Missions

We rule! Keep it up! :DDDDD
-XO thing: When I took command of the squadron, I made Brad Tack my XO. Then Bobxavi came and I made him the unannounced XO because I wasn’t sure of who else was coming to the squadron. The problem of having a soccer team with the best goalkeepers in the world is that It’s hard to choose which one is going to play. As for this squadron, when I need someone to replace me in command, I’ll just choose one of our 3 Majors, who I think are the best qualified for the job when it’s required.


SQUADRON STATUS

-Keep flying. Last time we were also on the lead at the beginning and then… :P
-Nick & Motto comp: So far I only 2 submissions. Those who haven’t sent their suggestions can send it before midnight GMT.
-Caption comp: It’s back. Check it out at www.buffy75.freeserve.co.uk/caption.html
