<Salute>

Greetings Sigma Personnell.

It's Great Day for Sigma! Shinobi is back to best squadron in whole universe, and that mean i have my A-DOC... FEAR ME!!!

As a result of having my assistant i announce that I release WC Zeth Durron from my medlab. It's end of Patients' Republic of Wing II. Now Zeth takes back all his duties.

I'm very sorry for not writing report on time but i was participating in final of Physics olympiad. (1st-5th april). I'm 36th in whole country. Drink arew on me.

These two weeks could be treated as Shining weeks. Lots of medals were awarded, loads of missions flown.

We are closer and closer to gain Citations. We have 3 at the moment and number is expected to grow. Fly, Fly, Fly, and first of all try to finish your SIGMA Assignment. Have Fun.

SL YARIMASTA!!! PLEASE REPORT TO ME, OTHERWISE I'LL HAVE TO AWOL YOU. If anyone can contact Yarimasta, please do so.

Colonel Malidir stepped down as Wing Commander of Wing XIV and joined the Reserves due to pressing RL obligations. Malidir has been an excellent leader and I would like to thank him for the good work done during his WC tenure. The position of Wing Commander on the ISD Intrepid (ASF) is now open for applications. Mandatory requirements are as follow:

• Previous command experience in the TIE Corps at the level of Squadron Commander or above.
• Good knowledge about the XvT/XWA platforms and Multiplayer.
  
• Fast email response time (no more than 48 hours).
  
• SM/3 and WC IWATS courses completed.
  

Applicants are expected to fulfill the following duties:

• Help the Commodore with day-to-day administration.
  
• Run regular competitions fir the Wing.
  
• Be a good example for the rest of the Wing (participating in competitions, flying SP & MP, passing IWATS courses, etc.)

As you see it's not an easy job but if you are a successful Wing Commander you will be rewarded accordingly. Submit your applications to VA Gidda with the subject "Wing XIV Application". If you want you may include one of your current superiors as reference.
