RHO SQUADRON REPORT #22

REPORTING OFFICER: Colonel Alexandre Morgan, Squadron Commander

RECIPIENTS: General Gilbert H. Frown; cc: Rho Squadron

DATE SUBMITTED: 04.02.2025

SQUADRON COMMANDER'S CORNER

(Colonel Alexandre Morgan stood in the middle of the Rho Commander's office. The place was almost identical to the way that he had left it one-and-a-half standard years ago: the lighting remained dim and polite, the clean desk was unmoved, and the air cooler still rattled slightly when turning on.

Almost identical.

Luckily, the one thing that it was missing was the one thing that Morgan had taken with him. He picked up the framed portrait resting against the wall and placed it up higher. The micro-repulsor unit hung the painting in place, and Morgan stepped back to admire the finishing touch to the office.

His smile grew, and he walked to sit behind his desk and view his handiwork. The portrait hung proudly, the memory it showed coming quickly back to Morgan. The thrill of the Rhodium, the pride in the triumph, and the love for each and every member of the squadron was refreshed every time he saw it.

He had decided a while ago that the Rho family portrait would go wherever he did.

Of course, much had changed since that portrait. People had been promoted, pilots had retired, and new family members had joined up. He made a mental note to get a new version done. Perhaps for the briefing room, he thought.

Sighing contently and powering on his datapad, he began to write his first report - again.)

 

Pilots of the Rho Family,

It's been a while since the last Rho Squadron Report - so welcome back! I hope that all our pilots didn't forget how to read in the meantime. I know we've got some proficient Imperial University students among us, so I'm not worried about y'all, but the rest...

It's a privilege to be sitting behind this desk again. There's truly no place like RHOme (forgive the pun), and nothing honors me more than being trusted for another tenure as its chief custodian. I look forward to the work that we will do over the coming months and to seeing what we will achieve together!


For Rho Squadron! Long may it reign!

CLOSING COMMENTS

It's fantastic to be back in the Rho CMDR seat, friends. I'm excited to see what more we can accomplish this go-around. Great job against that First Order scum, by the way - there is no Imperial Remnant quite like the Emperor's Hammer!

Many thanks again to COL Davalorn for our new banner that heads up this report and CPT Davy for our patch featured in the banner!
