Theta Squadron WSR #10
132045ZJUL14

The month since my last report was certainly an active one and, in the light of the final results, a productive one for both the Warrior and Theta, not to mention certain individuals. Due to the number of ship and squadron updates and summaries a WSR was next to useless and outdated as it was written. That being said the RtF comp is moving further into memory and the usefulness has returned... and if you believe that you'll believe anything! (I jest).

I'm afraid the recent house move and relocation on my side has led to an appalling absence from everyday activities over the last 2 weeks, compounded by no real internet access until mid-August. The MSE was prioritised and sent on the 5th and is currently pending review from officer's with far more braid than I. The RtF website represents the major contributions in a readily accessible format, but suffice to say the emphasis will be on rewarding those of you who responded to the call with activity, however great or small. My thanks to those of you who rose to the occasion. In particular of course its a simple fact that we are TCCOMs Own Escort Squadron and we hold that heady honour, and our position onboard the flagship, thanks to the major and consistent efforts of GN Yoda, now the wingman of the TCCOM himself having surrendered the role of Theta Battle Captain. An impressively shiny medal is hopefully his in a matter of days and reflects not just the 600+ missions flown or the fictions, or the dozens of HS, but all the above and the efforts made to organise our efforts before the comp began. We hit the ground hard and fast and never surrendered the lead, I couldn't have asked for any more.

As victims of our own success the MSE took hours to compose and I would rather let that stand and re-direct an activity report to the RtF site. The squadron entry that normally follows the intro to this report has thus been removed and I consider all of you to be on a well earned R&R for the remainder of July. Suffice to say when I get net back in August the harassing will recommence, but my main directive now is to take it easy, sit back on our laurels for an all too brief moment, enjoy a glorious Summer and get ready for August. We'll hit the ground running again, and turn our gaze to the next honour and the next challenge.

The RtF medals have been awarded, with mysele earning 2x IS-GR, matched by an IS-SR and -BR, with a -BW to prove I do on occasion fly! Gilad earned himself an IS-BW for flying the SP battles in their entirety and proving most useful in supporting the ssquad's wider effort in that round. Of course Yoda claimed an abundance of awards, including an IS-BR, 2x IS-BW, an IS-GW, and a horrendously rare IS-PW. Perhaps most importantly we won as a squad, and a ship, with our own comrades close behind.

Prima Inter Pares

GN Pickled Yoda stands out from amongst the rest of the squadron, but all members of the squadron who participated in RtF can count themselves as close on his heels...

Theta Competitions

Theta squadron comps, Op Thetan particularly will be on hold for the better part of this month, with any activity between this report and July 31st going towards a single round. This is due to my limited ability to process or administrate at present but will be rectified come August.

Operational Picture

...Is anyone there? Helloooo? That's odd, I count 4 TIEs, 4 MIS, and... no shuttle. Where the hell has Theta gone? WC? WC! Damn it Frown, where the hell is my squadron?!? Escorting the TCCOM? In a shuttle and without any fighters, are you seriously telling me they told you that and then they just wandered off? Did you check that with the Chal, oh they claimed we're the Flagship and should be keeping a better track of the TCCOM? Those snide little bas...
