the subgroups wherever possible...

THE EMPEROR'S HAMMER NOW OFFERS INTERNET RELAY CHAT (IRC) CONFERENCES FOR ITS NON-AOL MEMBERS!
In accordance with the following transmission from RA Zeus (COM/RA Zeus/ISD Van), and my attendance at an IRC meeting last Saturday, the Fleet Commander herein posts the following:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
From: Athena923
To: GA Ronin
Sir,
I have already begun weekly meetings with the Internet members of the EH.
If you joined GNN and became a beta tester like Stelek you would be able to
attend the meetings and listen to what the internet members have to say. Our
meetings are at irc.gnn.com at port 6667 at 12:00 EDST on Saturdays. They
are in room ##Emperor's_Hammer. Stelek knows more about GNN than I do and he
would be able to tell you how to join it.
Thanks
COM\RA Zeus\ISD Van
FLEET COMMANDER'S NOTE:
These IRC meetings shall have the same content and function as our AOL meetings...In addition, as with ALL EH onlince meetings/conferences, attendance is voluntary, NOT mandatory...However, it is an amazing experience to talk to EH Members from all over the world at once...We had Members from South Africa, Sweden, Canada, and the US all "chatting" at once...A LOT of fun and highly recommended by the Office of the Fleet Commander...!
COMBINED ARMS BATTE MEDAL APPROVED FOR THE ASSAULT OF AURORA!
The Fleet Commander has recently approved a new Battle Medal for the successful completion of the Assault of Aurora Combined Arms Battle (CAB II), as created by AD Melan Pyr (former OPS/AD Melan Pyr/CS-7/SSD Avr)...
The former Operations Officer should also be commended on his diligence in creating/revising Battle Medals for ALL 30 previously posted battles. In addition, the OPS has also created Medal "workbenches" for easy editing in Medal distributions and Medal Display Cases. Each is basically standardized in accordance with the design above. Each is in its own case, with the silver Battle nameplate and the gold medal name. The medal designs have been "cleaned up" by RBKugel (Melan Pyr) for consistency. These Medals have been compiled in the Opeations Manual released concurrent with this Newsletter...In addition, RBKugel has created Emperor's Hammer specific Dress and Duty "uniforms" upon which all the Emperor's Hammer Medals, Ranks, Positions and Dark Brotherhood regalia can be worn...( a peak of the new EH Uniform is presented in the Officer's Deck Section of this Newsletter!)...These are also detailed in the Operations Manual...

FLEET COMMANDER ANNOUNCES RESIGNATION OF OPERATIONS OFFICER, AD Melan Pyr!
With great regret, the Fleet Commander herein announces that the Operations Officer (AD Melan Pyr/RBKugel) has officially resigned from the Emperor's Hammer Strike Fleet as of October 30, 1995. His excellent artwork, Dark Brotherhood involvement as Herald, innovative proposals and constant advice and Battle ideas will be greatly missed by ALL Members of the Emperor's Hammer. The Command Staff wishes Pyr the best of luck in his future endeavors. In addition, the Fleet Commander wishes to extend his personal gratitude for the contributions made by RBKugel to the Emperor's Hammer and the Dark Brotherhood...
However, as the Fleet must fight on, VEELON has been promoted to the Rank of Rear Admiral and has accepted the Position of Operations Officer of the Emperor's Hammer....
