Well now, its good to be back home. I am pleased to announce I am finally off of my LOA and I am terribly sorry to all of you, especially to Commander Judarrl that this took sooooo long to take care of. However we are all one big family here so I hope you guys can forgive me and we all get back to work. I took this leave to take care of RL work which had be bouncing between Alabama and Florida almost every day and it has played hell with both my physical and mental health lol, but we got everything taken care of, I got payed, layed, and above all I made it back in one peice so I'm happy and very eager to get back to what I enjoy - being your CMDR!

First off let me give a very special thanks to our Executive Officer who has gone above and beyond what even I'd have done to cover for our squad this past month, I'm quite suprised she didnt AWOL me, but I'm glad she didn't cause now I'm back and ready to do the job. For her efforts Mrs.Juddarl shall be handsomely rewarded. Once again, my deepest thanks Commander - you covered my ass and thats what we need in this squad, unity and friendship. :-)

Okay as far as activities are going, I am not quite sure if we have anything at all. I am sure all of you are eager to get started on something and I have had a challange for a squad vs squad - and after a few days thought I think thats what we are going to do. Commander Judarrl since it was originally your idea I will give you full reign as our Squadron's Judge during this competition so please get in contact with the required people since you know them better than me, and get us rolling. If need be we can set up a meeting for tomorrow some time to discuss things.

During my absence I have not seen much but then again what I have seen were awsome. I think I speak for the whole squad when I give a big congratulations to our own Colonel Gunman on recieving one of the highest honors one can recieve - The Grand Order of the Emperor. Gunny has busted his ass ever since I met him and there is no doubt in my mind that this award is pry an understatement for this guy, and if I could make something better and give it to you man you know I would - but enjoy your reward its something that very few can say they have. Three cheers for the good Colonel!

We need some new members! We have a few empty spots in Blue and its time to fill them! I am sure between all of us we can manage finding 2-3 new recruits or even maybe 2-3 old vets that know what it means to be part of something special. Either way I want to get these spots filled before the 5th of next month so I'll be contacting some cadets and seeing if I can't get a few volunteers for the squad. ;-)

FLYING!!! I am not sure how much flying has been going on, but if any of you have done any missions during my absence please submit them to me and I'll have them submitted ASAP! I know I have a lot of catching up to do but I'm gonna need some help from you guys in getting your info to me.

Well this is some what of a lax report, but its better than nothing right? Next week I'll be back at 100% and will give out a real deal report heh, but for this week I ask for you guys to just bare with me while I catch back up. Its great to be back guys and I hope everyone missed me as much as I missed you guys!
