Theta Squadron WSR #36
092130ZOCT15

The 2 months between reports this time around has been due to a major increase in workload and a major decrease in time available to do my best for Theta as a CMDR. The standing joke with our former COM and beloved current WC was the deployment of "denied" on any occasion that I dared suggest that another pilot would prove a better Theta CMDR - a joke made worse by our RtF victory after I'd claimed we were looking for a 3rd place finish! I've had a great 20 months as Theta's CMDR and I think we can all be proud of back to back RTF titles, the birth and evolution of the Warrior as a fighting ship, and the well entrenched public image of Theta as a crusty, scruffy looking band of vagrants - a band that I've had the distinct pleasure to lead until later tonight when my resignation will be officially processed. Rather than leave any sort of power vacuum to be filled by a lunatic yelling "Kappa Hype" I've been privileged to recommend my successor and have that recommendation accepted. I won't spoil the COMs big reveal...



Rather than be forced to wander the corridors of the Phoenix tormenting Frodo I'll be staying on to torment Frown, a duty I intend to give my full attention as a Thetan pilot. The recent change in COMs, Admirals and CMDRs is a great thing - continuity is great and change should always be managed, but it proves we've got a great depth of leaders willing to step forward and give this club their time. That bodes well for the future and gives me a great deal of confidence. Who knows, that 3rd ship may need a COM in a year or two.

Operational Picture

…Is that pipe music??? What's the General doing, has he finally gone totally mad? He's just walking slow circuits of the hangar causing a scene and playing that screeching bloody tune. Is this some sort of Theta thing I've not seen yet, like that one for new pilots where they lock them in the TIE trainer and flood it with Frown's not so private stash of alcohol. Or where the least efficient pilot in the trainers has to steal part of Frown's uniform for the effigy hidden on 3 deck? I hear they're almost ready to use it to fake his death...

...Something's going on, Frown's face is... twitching... my gods is he trying to smile? It looks like he's having a stroke, maybe some sort of palsy or allergic reaction. I can actually see the muscles in spasm, I don't think they've ever been used like that. Looks like he's reading a message from the General, looks like a personnel notice...

CMDR's Corner

All good things come to an end, but Theta is in a decent place going forward and with a new and trusted hand on the tiller the only way is up. It's been a pleasure.

Yours aye,
