Greetings all, and welcome to the FO report for the past week. I'm a little pressed for time today, so it's going to be a brief report:

News -

- Imperial Storm III continues. As always, please check http://www.emperorshammer.net/wo/is3/ for all current updates.

- Commander Tour of Duty: As stated in the Fleet Standing Orders and the SM/3 Course notes, the CMDR ToD rule is:

All Squadron Commanders are expected to serve in their position for a minimum of FOUR months. This is the commitment you must make towards the job. Anyone who quits before this time without extenuating circumstances will be reduced to the rank they held prior to their appointment.

This is to emphasise the point that being a CMDR requires a great deal of time and commitment. It is not something to be entered into lightly and without forethought.

This rule become official and enforced for all CMDR appoints from THIS MONDAY! In addition, from this Monday, all persons applying for a CMDR position must have taken and passed SM/3. The only exception is if the applicant has previously held a CMDR position and taken & passed SM/1 or 2.

- Squadron Management Course Ver. 3 (http://www.btinternet.com/~spellfire/sm.html):

Had a good number of people taking this so far, a graduate list is below. A shocking number of people however are getting basic things wrong, like rank caps and medal awards. In addition to reading the SM notes, you're also expected to have read the Training Manual. Remember, although you may have no intention of ever being a CMDR, taking the course is a good way to familiarise yourself with several important aspects of the TIE Corps.
    I'll be updating my FO page with the current Staff List tonight. Remember that you can also find the current staff on the eh.net rosters. Also please remember that transcripts of the tests are NOT kept. So if you want to know where you went wrong, then please email me BEFORE you take the test.
