Theta Squadron WSR #18
241550ZOCT14

This WSR is being submitted to you with the kind co-operation of an evil corporation, no... not our own glorious Empire but rather that of the dreaded Starbucks - we in the Empire could learn something from free wi-fi and a smell of coffee and cocoa in the halls of power. Of course I digress...

MSE isn't a dirty word, more correctly it's a dirty acronym - approximately 6 days remain to add any activity of note this time around so there is still more than enough time for each of you to contribute something meaningful. You might be as pleased as I was to note that I will allegedly have the actual internet by this time next week, it even says so in a letter so it must be true. I assume of course the net remains the generally vile and equally amusing place it has always been! With those guiding concepts in mind, the MBs are crying out for our squads outstanding and imaginative banter and abuse - get to it!

Many thanks to Gilad and Yoda for their first pilot files as part of the ongoing TIE Golf, and congratulations to MAJ Caine on his well earned ISM from last month's delayed (by me) MSE. There have been very few mentions of a certain mammal recently, which I'm sure has nothing to do with the delicious tagine served in the senior officer's mess last night.

Unfortunately the SOO remains out of reach for the near future so on behalf of Theta I'd like to thanks the TCCOM and TAC for stepping into the breach while I am quite sure the COO is digging himself out of a pile of LoC awards and MP reports rivalling only Everest in scale. It's quite easy to sit here in a squadron and throw muck upwards and complain, it is often more difficult to acknowledge good work as the common assumption is that it's only their duty in any case. We seem to be in the middle of a golden era for the TC and I'm keen to see it continue, it's always a pleasure to note these periods when they come around - I know for a fact that even 2 years ago most of us didn't believe it would happen. Now we have COMs, combating squadrons, multiple wings, and a lot of positive momentum. It's time to keep our small part of it rolling along - so come on Theta, time to bring back the A-game.

Operational Picture

...where the hell has TIE gone, I could have sworn I'd tied him up in the briefing room. Hmm, Doralt must have him, yes... Doralt. Right, onto the important things - just about time for the evening meal, let's see what's that delicious aroma from the flag galley. A hint of spice, roasting meat, I'm salivating! Don't look at me like that crewman, haven't you ever seen a Colonel talking to himself? Be gone! Smells like... sautee of gundark? tauntaun sirloin? rancor steaks? Might even be a nice bit of goa... NOOOOOOOO!...

(Command Deck, ISD Warrior)

...you're all staying here until the smell of vomit and general sleaziness is scrubbed from every deckplate, equipment well, and every fibre of the carpet in the cockpit. It smells like Frown's cabin in here, complete with the grime and general air of disappointment and despair. Why for instance is there now a set of fluffy dice in here, a novelty AT-AT that... oh yes, that dispenses mints from its back end when you depress the button on top. What the hell else is in here??? Oh, an array of highly illegal spirits and vintage weaponry... actually' we'll keep that... that I approve of, but nothing else! Yes, alright, that squadron photo of us in that bar fight can stay - it's amazing, I'll admit, the way that the security footage caught us all in the same shot. The blood and teeth catch the provost's stablights almost beautifully as they spiral away from that guy getting hit by the chair - well done Gilad on that one... what... I appreciate art occasionally... I know what I like... philistines, keep scrubbing...
