Cmdr Strahd enters the ready room hastily . His hands are filled with reports and data-pads. Some of the pilots giggled as their cmdr stepped in, juggling reports and almost tripping on the step to the podium. But Strahd had a job to do and he was going to do it.

“Greetings all, once again another week has passed. I would first like to congratulate Tarkin and Alec for their activity this past month. I know my activity levels have not been the greatest this past week but I assure you all, once I can upload your files for you and my real life duties slow down a bit, I shall be back in there with you all killing those new republic pilots along side you.”

Strahd’s hands seemed sweaty, and he shuffled along nervously. He knew his activity wasn’t up to par for a cmdr wasn’t up to par. How could he ask his pilots anything more? He stood there and stared off into nothingness for a moment, Then his eyes shifted to the pilots and a grin appeared.

“I plan on setting up a competition between you all…it will be done in the simulators and will focus on one of the battles found in our archives. I shall have more info coming to you all in a short while. Hopefully I can show you that I’m not only a desk jocky and I can still fly too. Dismissed!”

NEWS

1. Congrats to LT Gareth on his promotion from SL. Great job!

2. I shall be creating a squad comp and I’ll be using and XWA battle. This is yet to be approved but when it does, I’ll hand you all the details!

3. I still can’t up-load files!!! I’m going to test a few things here myself that I hadn’t thought of before…maybe I can get to the bottom of this myself. In the meantime, send all pilot files to our WC and he will be able to submit them. (I really wish I could do BSFs again!)

4. I needed your activity for May and I never got most of them guys! (Don’t worry Gareth, I have all yours as well as a few others too.) But I will have to do my report with what I have…so don’t be expecting a congrats or medal if you hadn’t sent me activity. (Remember? My Hard Drive crashed and lost everything)
