This report was submitted by CPT Daisuke Airyu


CPT Daisuke Airyu, reporting in for the week of 6/23-6/29, 2001

THIS WEEK'S GRUDGE MATCH:
Hitting a deer with your car
VS
Ramming an MC-90 with a TIE Advanced

Serovich: I thought you promised your friend you wouldn't make any sick jokes about killing that poor deer...
Airyu: He doesn't get this report. *cackles*
Serovich: ...
Airyu: Okay. Let's summarize the situation. I was doing about 75 (mph, cause I'm an American! hoo-hah) down a dark, heavily forested road. I saw something that looked like a cat and figured I could straddle it.
Serovich: And it kept getting bigger and bigger.
Airyu: And then I hit it head-on. Wham, now there's deer fur all over the back of my car.
Serovich: Lovely. No damage?
Airyu: None. Now, let's go to our newest recruit, Trey Ivins, who's testing out the other contestant in the match. Trey?
Trey (over radio) : Hey! I'm heading straight for the cruiser as we speak!
Airyu: Great! By the way, your promotion went through, you're officially a lieutenant!
Trey: Sweet!
Airyu: Which means you're fully responsible for all damage to and/or loss of craft!
Trey: Wait a second now....
Airyu: I hope you're insured!!!
Trey: The controls!! They're stuck!!! I can't- *is cut off by an explosion, then static*
*a slight pause*
Serovich: Airyu, you're a dick.

MORAL: Never, ever volunteer to help out with the grudge match.

TYPHOON HAPPENINGS
----------------------------------------
TWO NEW PILOTS
One old, and one new. LT Hyuga Seithen returns from the reserves after a stay of about a month, and LT Trey Ivins (yes, already) is fresh off the Daedalus. With the addition of these two new faceless minions, we're up to 22 battle citations. Yay us, and keep up at the recruiting.

WOODY STILL NOT BACK YET
We're entering the timeframe he specified a couple of weeks ago.. so he should be returning to duty soon. Key word is should.

Arrivals:
SL Trey Ivins (FM 3-2) <----- PLT Daedalus
LT Hyuga Seithen (FM 3-3) <----- Reserves

Promotions
SL Trey Ivins ------> Lieutenant

Medals
CPT Daisuke Airyu ----- Medal of Instruction
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THERE MUST BE SOME WAY TO ALLEVIATE ALL THIS BOREDOM
(more commonly referred to as "orders"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------.
PRIORITY- WING X LEAGUE
TFRs for TC-TIE 114 are due to me by monday night. Give it your all, and we'll be able to sweep the round against Thunder.

PRIORITY- RECRUIT
Our squadron is looking a little bit better than before, but it's nowhere near its former strength. If you know any Star Wars nerds that have TIE Fighter, go! Draft them immediately!!! If we're going to put up anything of a fight in the wing competition over these next few weeks, we need to get some new fresh blood in here.

SECONDARY - GO UP AN FCHG RANK
Not only do you get the nice little stripes to add onto your uniform sleeves, you get an ISM for every rank past Lancer! And it looks very good on your activity reports, something which our Wing Commander wants to see. So get flying, and see if you can go up a rank before I do.

"I think we need a radio." "Yeah, we need a radio." "We should bring in a radio." "Yeah, cause we need a radio." "Do any of you guys have a radio at home that you could bring in?" "No... we need to get a radio." "Yeah, so where will we get a radio?" "I dunno... Radio Shack?" - Me and a couple of my co-workers, determining that our office is boring as hell without a radio. I think we need a radio.
