I'm most pleased to see the new week kick off woth a large number of BSF approvals rolling past my desk from the Tactical office. This is very encouraging to me. What I find a little discouraging though in these statistics is that some squadrons are responsible for very few of these. However, positive steps are being taken, and I am quite sure the numbers will be a lot better next week.

 

Earlier this week the Executive Officer, SA Kawolski announced a whole bunch of interesting things in his fourth XO report, including the closure of the Naval Corp. This has been viewed by many as an opportunity to aquire more pilots for TC ships. I hope there's a few people attracted to the charm of the Grey Wolf. In any event, the ASF as a whole should do well out of this.

 

I think the impending emergence of the Emperor's Hammer database, superseding the current TIE Corps database, will be a great step forward for the TC and the EH as a whole. I was very pleased to read what Kawolski had to say about that. I think the difference will be most noticeable for CMDRs up, with greatly improved administration features.

 

Some more good news for you pilots. At last we have most of the monthly squadron evaluations we are going to get, so this week I went through the recommendations and actioned them as appropriate. Congratulations to recipients of medals and promotions. Sorry about delays on some of the medals, the Operations Officer is being a major pain in the neck, so some I have reccommended have not been approved yet. All who had fun in February can give yourselves a big pat on the back. I trust you are all having fun in March?

 

You all saw it in Brucmack's wing report. WoW is here again! We are the EH's ambassadors for multiplayer melees. I would like to see lots of Wing XIII names on XvT matches, and quite a few on XWA matches as well. I love WoW, even Australians can get involved.

 

Last of all. I would like to say ALL YOUR BASE ARE BELONG TO US! Thank you to some people in #wingxiii for bringing that to my attention yesterday. You know who you are.
