This report was submitted by COL Smitrock



Greetings fine pilots of the ISD Subjugator and SSD Avenger.

I have this Weeks Wing XX Weekly Report.

WING XX Dated the 13th of September Year 2001 AD

Current Wing XX Events

>>Greetings fine pilots and Flag Officers of the Avenger Task Force. I have in front of you the 12th Wing Report for Wing XX of the ISD Subjugator.

>A difficult week for Wing XX and the an entire Nation.

>This past Tuesday I got to work around 7:00 am est my usual time. Being that I work for an ambulance service I went straight to our bunk room to lay down for a couple hours. Around 8:45 am est I heard my co-workers in the TV room swearing and talking loud. Half asleep I got out of the bed and walked into the room and they said you better sit down and have a look at this. I was just amazed and in shock that a plane had slammed into the one WTC Tower. As we watched the footage and listened to Bryant Gumble on good Morning America we witnessed Live the 2nd plane come from the right side of the TV screen and smash right through the 2nd Tower. There were no words to be said. We all looked at each other watching the debris and flames on National TV. We just kept watching in amazement with chills. At 9:30 am est I had to go out on a call. After loading a patient into the back of the ambulance I ran up front and started to drive onward to the Hospital. I turned on a locale radio station and they stated one of the Towers collapsed. I rushed to the nearest ED quickly to drop the patient off in hopes to getting back and seeing the footage. As my partner and I walked back into the ambulance base the 2nd Tower collapsed along with the information about the Pentagon being slammed by a plane as well.

I would like to give my condolences to all the civilians and their families who have been hurt and who have perished in this tragedy. I especially want to pay my respects to all my brother EMS workers and emergency service employees that have died in this disaster. EMS services are and will always be at the beckon call of duty for the public in all Nations......

>For some Wing XX news, we have lost several excellent pilots this week due to school and other Real Life events. My best wishes go out to LCM Swerg, CM Cobolt and CPT Dae Cam, they have transferred to the reserves. Congratulations to MAJ Demos, he was promoted to WC of Wing XIX, CMDR Jacob Van Nowak, he was promoted to RA CA:RO. Also I want to say congrats to GhostHawk on his promotion to WC of Wing XVIII as well :)

>The new Wing XX web site is up with all current news and competitions, please go to this url to view: http://www20.brinkster.com/smitrock/xxintro.html

>As many of you know RA Tiger has launched a new competition for the entire ATF. The COM's Judgment. Its a ladder type of comp with all 4 platforms involved. Top award is a IS-GW for flying and a IS-GR for the JK portion. A huge thank you goes to CPT Grail for creating the ASP powered web site, excellent job. Here is the url http://www22.brinkster.com/grail/comsjudg/. btw this will be an ongoing monthly comp :)

>A reminder to the few of you that are not aware. The TNT is not a TC Fleet wide competition anymore. TNT is now a Dark Brotherhood based melee competition where any one in the EH who is a DB member may fly and earn a CoF for each win. :)

>Congrats goes out to Raptor Squadron, they won the SoM for August! excellent work :)

TOTAL BSF's SUBMITTED = 195 (16 BSF's approved this this week!)

TOTAL IWATS COMPLETED = 77 (1 IWATS completed this week!)

>A reminder to make an effort to post on the Wing message board along with the Squadrons as well. Postings are another excellent way of presenting ideas and suggestions. Another reminder is that the Wing web site is always updated with the latest Wing news, comps and Squadron rosters.

>I will provide a link here to the TC News page. I feel that's the first place any TC member should look at when they open the database. TIECORPS NEWS PAGE

Current Wing XX Competitions

---->"Tides of War" - The Wing is divided into 2 groups. Each group is made up of different pilots from all the squadrons. Both groups must fly the designated Free XvT Mission and the 1st and 2nd highest scores from each group will go up against each other (deadline to submit scores to me is 9-27-01). The two 2nd place winners will compete for the IS-BW and the two 1st place winners will compete for an IS-SW (You will have from 9-27-01 to 10-3-01 to submit scores for announcement).
>>>Ongoing Squadron of the Month competition. Please note that Squadron Reports of the 1st of September will have the final SoM point total and the winner will be announced for the previous month..


>>> The "PoM" award will be based on a pilots overall activity on the ISD Subjugator. It ranges from MP participation in Fleet wide competitions, Wing, Squadron and self recognition. Squadron Commanders, with your first report of the month along with your total "SoM" points please recommend the pilot in your Squadron worthy of "PoM". I will keep track of the Squadron CMDR's and announce it with the "SoM" as well. A few benefits from earning this award:

-A great accomplishment to add to future applications.
-A little medal I made special for you :)
-An ISM being that the Ops Office allows me to award it which there should be no problem.
-an of course bragging rights :)

Thoughts from the Wing Commander

>>With the recent transfers our total pilot population has went down significantly but this will only be temperary. We will see 3 new fresh CMDR's by next and and our recruitment effort will need to go in full swing.

"Guided by Darkness, We shall prevail"

>>That's all for this week..WC out!<<
