Right, this sums up most of the period where the entire ship were on leave.
Darn, this christmas have made me lazy.... And now I have to find out where
left and right are again.... Oh well, it could be worser, right people? :P
Now, where should I start... Oh yes!
We got a new pilot 20th December, all please welcome Lieutenant Deke Starkiller.
He were an Sub-Lieutenant for a few hours, and by completing his INPR he qualified
for his first promotion, the rank of Lieutentant... Good work Deke, keep it up! :)
Now I gotta review the battle table of Tempest again, new assignments will be posted
this week, we lost quite alot of citation when our numbers jumped up to 11, this is something
I think we can correct quite fast aswell.... I just gotta find something thin so that I can use
the emergency ejection on my 50X CD-ROM which I so nicely removed from my computer
when I installed my DVD-ROM, WITH my TIE95 cd in it!
Damn, I'm good :)
You may laugh now! :P
Ermm... Well... Back to business... Yes, as you might have noticed, the squadron leave
ended a few days aga :P
However, this month we won't challenge another squad due to that our two best pilots
are both on leave, Lieutenant Commande Kheeta will be in Australia until February 1st.
Commander Kaneda will be gone until Februay aswell, he's in Australia too :P
But I don't know the exact date when Kaneda returns, tiecorps.org seems to be always
down when you really need it.... Bah!
So this month, we'll focus on flying battles and increasing our Citations, next month we'll
start to make other squadrons fear us, like the good old days ;)
One thing, some of you have been rather quiet lately and I would like that the Following
people report in to me and explain the reason for their quietness, I need to know in order
plan the next moves for this squadron. This applies to the following pilots:
LT Grey Wolf, LT Jerha'd Milar, LT Mike Keyman and CPT Vuffi Raa.

anyone who's interested in the club! If you'd like to join our happy little group of recruiters,
