Delta Squadron Weekly Trivia
This week's questions and answers were:

Q1: What Imperial-class Star Destroyer served as the flagship of then Admiral Thrawn during his campaign against the traitorous Admiral Zaarin in TIE Fighter and late saw service with the Emperor’s Hammer?
A1: Grey Wolf
Q2: What Imperial-class Star Destroyer served as the Flagship of Admiral Natasi Daala as she guarded the Maw Installation?
A2: Gorgon
Q3: What Imperial-class Star Destroyer served as the flagship for Lord Vader and captured the Tantive IV at the beginning of A New Hope?
A3: Devastator
Q4: Name the Imperial-class Star Destroyer that was captained by Thrawn and served as the flagship of the Dark Jedi Jerec. It was destroyed shortly after the Battle of Yavin, but it’s computer core was salvaged and installed in another Imperial-class Star Destroyer, which took on the same name (with the suffix “II” at the end). Jerec went on to name his massive command ship, which first appeared in the second Dark Forces game, after this ship.
A4: Vengeance
Q5: Captain Lorth Needa commanded what Imperial-class Star Destroyer in The Empire Strikes Back? This was also the ship that Lord Vader’s shuttle launched from in the opening scene of Return of the Jedi.
A5: Avenger
Q6: What Imperial-class Star Destroyer shared the original name of the Imperial-class itself?
A6: Imperator

Results:
Tuba: 8
Tom: 6
Shado: 6
Clark: 4
Gist: 4
Chris: 3
Sergeyli: 2

I thought this was a cool set of questions and it looks like I managed to throw in a couple of hard ones!

Commander’s Thought’s:
Welcome back to LCM Tuba and LT Tom O'deevs!

This week was a pretty good week! All trivia questions were released in the given timeframe, though Thursday I almost hit the deadline due to some chaos at work. I'm hoping that next week will go just as smooth, but I'm not sure, given that I'll still sorting out this week's mess.

One thing in particular that pleased me was that all pilots were active, which I view as a big achievement! For the coming week, one thing you can do is complete LCM Tuba's IWATS Course and earn yourself an IS-BR!

FYI, I did get the MSE for June turned in. I'm really hoping that there will be some merit medals in the mail soon. I'm still disappointed that nothing has come down from May...

That's all for this week!

Cordially Submitted,
Colonel Gilad Pelleaeon
