TARTARUS SQUADRON
WEEKLY SQUADRON REPORT
19.09.2003
CMDR/MAJ DarkC

Salute
This report will be a bit shorter than ussual again :P I only hope I didn’t forget anything important :)
Last week I was telling you that I am very busy with some furniture movements from here to the country and also my house is upside down. Well, I managed to take the old furniture to the country last wekend and I almost finished rearranging 2 rooms at home this week :P Still have very much to do, but at least things started moving. So enough with my problems, let’s go on with the report.

COMMANDER’S OFFICE
I’ll try to be very brief,because I am in a hurry,so here are the main issues:
Seems that nothing I told you last week about comunnication mattered . I didn’t hear a word from you this week , except for Maiko ,Jamie and Reelo.
I know Miack and Wes are on leave, but what about the rest of you?
I want to remind you that there is absolutelly no problem for any of you who have RL or any other kind of problems to take a leave as long as you LET ME KNOW!
The fchg race against Odin is on and I am now in the position to find out all my pilots are missing. You guys should have at least give me a sign.
As you know or you’ll find out in the followings, there have been a few medals awarded to you and some of you were promoted. I thought this will mean something to you…
Another big problem is our squadron website. I remind you my dear Les,that in case you don’t correct the problems by the end of the week you all might wake up without CMDR next week. Please fix it…you promissed me!

Squadron status

Competitions
THIRST FOR REVENGE
The competition started on the 15th …and will last till the end of the month.
As i hope you know (or at least you should) it is an FCHG race. I hope it was a good choice and i won’t have any unpleasant surprises.
Unfortunatelly up to now i haven’t seen any reaction from you (except for Maiko …again).
I won’t ask you anymore …this time i order you all FLY!
It’s absolutelly unacceptable! The first week of the competition is over and there were no submissions (except for Maiko who’s plt files i didn’t get unfortunatelly)
I’d hate us to make fool of ourselves. I’m still counting on you, but i’m warning you that if things won’t change for the better and very soon, i’ll get very angry.

There are also many other Wing Wide or ASF wide competitions so all you have to do is choose one:P

GREY WOLF TOP GUN COMPETITION
Incoming Alert!

Battle Stations! Battle Stations! Competitive War time is about to start.

In just a couple short days the ship will receive a mission to fly for this new comp as was set up by yours truly ;)

On Friday Sept. 12th I will send out a brief and the mission to fly for the next week ending on Sept. 18th for round #1 of the GW TG comp. I will do so for each and every consecutive week for the remainder of the comp. Results will be posted by me at the end of the week.

Remember it's to your benefit for all to participate where possible if nothing else do it for the FCHG points you'll earn and who knows maybe, just maybe, you'll be the one to be able to say, "I WON THE GW TG as the Top Gun Pilot onboard!"

Fiction
None this week?
I would like you to think of something...lol..use your imagination:P


POETRY CORNER
I lay my life on you
Westlife

Just a smile and the rain is gone
Can hardly believe it
There's an angel standing next
to me
Reaching for my heart

Just a smile and there's no way
back
Can hardly believe it
But there's an angel calling me
Reaching for my heart

I know that I'll be okay now
This time it's real

I lay my love you
It's all I wanna do
Every time I breathe
I feel brand new
You open up my heart
Show me all your love
And walk right through
As I lay love on you

I was lost in a lonely place
Could hardly believe it
Holding on to yesterdays
Far, far too long

Now I believe it's okay
'Cause this time it's real

I never knew that love could
feel so good
Like a once in a lifetime
You change my world



LAST THOUGHTS
Well ,this is about all ….except for….
I didn’t wanted to be put in the position to tell you this, but you gave me no choice…you got your medals and you got your promotions. Of course all of these were well deserved, otherwise I wouldn’t have recommended you. But when I when I brought up your names in front of my superiors I really believed in you,don’t make me regret it.
I did my part of the job, now it’s your turn to give something in return.
We’re having a competition god damn it! Prove to me you care for this squadron at least as much as I care for you.
And make sure you keep in touch!!!

Respectfully submitted,
CMDR/MAJ DarkC/Tartarus.
