MANTIS SQUADRON WSR #2
                 COLONEL DRAX REMLINGER
                  FOR WEEK ENDING 12-26-03

FROM THE CMDR'S DESK:
Do pardon the lateness of this report gents but old Draxy boy has been on a Christmas drunk that was quite frankly suppose to last till the new year so hey im actually early with thing. If you bought that then cool, if not i appologize for my slackerness. I hope all of you enjoyed your holidays and will continue to do so as Mantis is officially on vactation till the 1st of January. We will regroup then boys so try to drink a cold one at the Tigers Den courtesy of yours truly till then. Regulators, out!

SQUADRON NEWS:
Not much shacking this time. I expect business to pick up soon so relax till then fellas.

Our new message board has been attained gentlemen.  I encouage you all to post to it frequently.  We will get some runons and different kind of things going on there to pass the time until we get 100 percent functional.  It can be found here:  Mantis Squadron Message Board.


WING NEWS:
Well just like our squadron there is not much happening in the wing currently. Numbers are low but the beer is plentiful so I count it a blessing.

Python Squadron is still open for apps is any of you old dogs are interested but I promise you wont have as much fun as we are going to have here. Feel free to apply with Sicky and Nighty is you wanna.

BATTLEGROUP NEWS:
Darksaber released some reports, 4 I think. And here we all hoped he had been eaten by a space slug or at worst a lovely siren. No such luck....Good to have you back Darky.

RA Gilad has taken the helm of the ISD Grey Wolf. We must pray for him daily as he attempts to steer the old Mutt as the GWSOoM keep up their antics.

In more Mutt news, Major Pickled Yoda takes over as the new WC of Wing XIII. Good luck to you both.
