VIRUS IN BATTLEGROUPS REPORT
I’m sure you’ve all heard about it by now. They say if you even looked at the email, you’re infected. The tool that will fix it is at:

THE WEEKLY COW QUOTE!
“No longer diverted by other emotions, I work the way a cow grazes.”
Käthe Kollwitz (1867–1945), German artist. Diaries and Letters (ed. by Hans Kollwitz, 1955), April 1910 entry.
And I excpect the same type of work from my pilots!

Another mostly active week! I’m greatly pleased so many of you participated in the Thunder vs Sword competition!

eGroups has been doing evil stuff and sometimes you emails don’t show up in my box! Does anyone know of any alternatives?

Arrivals - none
Departures - none

SQUADRON STATUS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The "Kangaroo of the Week" competition is still waiting for someone to grab this ISM dangling in front of them. Challenge me to anything reasonable and try to hold the title {except for XvT ‘cause I don’t have that :(}

Sword squadron got lucky and beat us. But with LT Wray’s entry, it was pretty close.

The Battlegroups has started a competition among all the squadrons. The first round is flying. Everyone (meaning EVERYONE) needs to fly FREETIE 092 (attached) by January 24! That’s this Wedsday! I don’t know why they gave us such short notice, but I know you can throw something together in time :)

TO FLIGHT LEADERS: Don’t forget to tell me what you’ve decided about your flight mottos and nicknames.
