TIE Corps Command Report
Weekly Report #74 – Submission date: August 11th 2014
Introduction

Welcome to a new TCCOM report, this one a little bit delayed due to RL commitments.

It seems that our SOO might have had more problems than he anticipated, since he was supposed to return on the 2nd of this month. I hope he is all right, and I’ll let you know as soon as I hear from him, if he doesn’t do that on his own.

I was hoping to have a few more medals to list here, but we had decided to wait for the SOO’s input on them. I really didn’t want for it to take this long, but since we’ve waited until now, it’s better for us to wait a little bit longer and guarantee that everything is properly done.

Still, one of the pending medals managed to get awarded this week, and it was:

- LC Impulse – Palpatine Crescent

Other than that, we also saw some great news this past week.

LC Kyle Kroan finally managed to step down from Beta CMDR, since a new one was promoted to the position. Newly promoted CM Chrome is the new commander of Beta, and he has hit the ground running, making several changes to the squadron roster details, and also releasing a very impressive first report. Good luck, Commander! And, Kyle, thanks for all the effort! Chrome’s promotion leaves Alpha’s Flight 3 Leader position open, so contact Alpha CMDR if interested.

Besides the aforementioned position/rank promotion, we also had a couple of rank promotions this past week, as Epsilon’s Flight Leader Gyssler was promoted to the rank of Colonel, and Alpha Squadron CMDR Landon Cruise was promoted to the rank of Captain. Well done, gentlemen!

As you probably saw recently in the mailing list, Alpha Squadron has a new pilot. Welcome back to MAJ Delak Krennel, formerly known as Enzo Matrix, who returns to the TC after a while away. We’re glad to have you with us, Major!

Finally, Commendations of Loyalty recommendations are being accepted from the Commanding Officers. There are some reccs still pending, and as soon as they are all compiled, they’ll be recommended to the Fleet Commander for approval!
