WEEKLY GAMMA SQUADRON REPORT
GAMMA WEEKLY SQUADRON REPORT #39
TO: TCCOM HA Daniel Bonini
FROM: Gamma CMDR COL Elwood the Brave
DATE SUBMITED: 29th March 2014
OVERVIEW
Sad News first today. We've lost one of our SC MP hotshots to the RSV's due to RL circumstances. Tuba has requested his transfer, which is already processed. I hope you'll get everything sorted out fast and return to active duty with us either here in Gamma or what ever we might be called then! I'm sure we'll always have an open spot for you, Tuba! You'll be missed!

Now on to the good News. The opening of another Ship/Wing is coming to its final stage as it seams. Lots of discussion going on about it within the different squadrons. *crossing fingers that it will happen soon*

All MSE medals for February that I recommended in my MSE were awarded this week. Congratulations to Star and Tuba for their Bronze Stars and to Repulsor and Impulse for their Palpatine Crescents! Well done and well deserved!

MoC's for February are also done. MoC-doc for me, MoC-soc for Starkillerny, Plif, Dante, MoC-boc for Tuba, Impulse and Repulsor. Congratulations!

GoP saw 3 participants. And again Plif managed to beat Repulsor's score. Congratulations!

There were 19 answers for the Gamma trivia this week. Winner this week is Plif with 9 points, directly followed by Tuba and Impulse with 8 points. Right behind them is Repulsor with 7 points. Nice work!

As this is the last WSR for March, GoeP, GPotM and the monthly parts of GoP and the Gamma Trivia end today. Winner of the GoeP is again me, GPotM for March is CPT Plif with impressive 233 points, March winner of the GoP are Plif and Repulsor, both with 14 points, second is myself, March winner of the Trivia is Plif with 35 points, followed up by Repulsor with 23 points. Medals on their way to your inboxes, gentleman! Well done!

SQUADRON ORDERS
1.) Report about activity before I release next weekly squadron report (approximately next Saturday around 11:00 UTC/GMT). Even if you did nothing you should still report and say that you did nothing.
2.) Keep activity on good level (IU/IWATS, flying or anything you can do). This club is about activity and fun, not just boring hang around.
3.) Participate in Competitions! Those are designed and run to give YOU something to have fun with.

FINAL WORDS

Why do good news always have to be accompanied by bad ones. The upcoming comissioning of Wing II aboard the ISD II Warrior is the best news in ages. But losing one of the best SC MP pilots of the TC to the RSV's is as bad as the other one is good, at least for Gamma. Let's hope we'll be able to compensate at least a part of the loss in the near future!
