news


Vice Admiral Torres resigned from IWCOM.

Rear Admiral Moreco announced new IWCOM.
A copy of my first mail to the IW fleet, as posted on Monday, 29th January 2001:

 
Members of the Infiltrator Wing,
 
as you know Vice Admiral Torres has stepped down from the position of IW Commander last week. I want to use this opportunity to thank you for your work in service of the IW, and I think I am far from being alone when I say that, given you want to, the IW will always welcome you back. Thanks again, and have fun whatever you do. :)
 
In his letter of resignation, VA Torres has asked GA Ronin and HA Kawolski to select me as his successor. The process of application has taken until this morning, but now I can inform you that I was accepted as IWCOM.
 
I will do my best to prove myself worthy of the trust that was put in me. Also, I can assure you that I do not intend to leave this position soon; the IW has seen too many Commanders in the last year, and I want to bring this great Subgroup back to stability and glory.
I hope you will help me to accomplish this task. Let us all work together for the best of the IW, instead of working against each other, serving our own ends.
If you need anything, do not hesitate to contact me, I am always here for you.
 
Thank you for your attention, and stand by for other mails coming in.
Read those carefully, I intend to do some major changes in the IW.

A new IWXO
With my promotion to IW Commander, the IW needed a new Executive Officer. After getting opinions from all over the IW, I have decided to promote former MC-90 Fear COM, Major Figaro, to the position of BGCOM, IWXO and the rank of General (GN).

IWTOC resigned
The Infiltrator Wing Tactics, Operations & Communications Officer, Major Kano, has decided to resign from his position. A new position for him in the IW Fleet is still being sought.

New IWTOC appointed
After Major Kano´s resignation, I have decided to appoint one of his assistants, namely Captain NiksaVel, CMDR of Knight Squadron, as the new IWTOC. Along with this comes a promotion to the rank of Major (MAJ).

New Knight CMDR
With NiksaVel´s promotion to IWTOC, Captain Vengeance has been appointed CMDR of Knight Squadron.

Wing I WC resigned
Commander Neo, Wing Commander of Wing I, resigned from his position this week. Currently he has a place in the IW reserves.

New Wing I WC
Lieutenant Commander Trevor Rastyn, the IW PMO and former CMDR of White squadron, has been promoted to Wing Commander of Wing I on the MC-90 Renegade.
A replacement for him as White CMDR is still being sought, but the announcement should be out within one or two days.

Big changes in the IW fleet
For quite a long time I have thought it necessary for the IW to concentrate its strength while relatively weak in numbers, and to move together closer. Therefore, I have issued the following orders:

1) Ares squadron on the Fear is CLOSED effectively NOW.
Former Ares members have been placed in other squadrons in Wing II.
 
2) Shadow squadron on the Warspite is also CLOSED effectively NOW.
Former Shadow members were all placed in Panther squadron in Wing I.
 
You will notice that this brings the IW down to two wings with three squadrons each.
This allows me to go to step three....
 
3) The MC-90 Warspite and the MC-90 Fear are CLOSED for squadrons NOW.
 
Now to a new home for the two wings...
 
4) A newly captured MC-90 is open in the IW NOW: the MC-90 Renegade
Both wings are now placed on the MC-90 Renegade under the command of their current WCs.
COM of the MC-90 Renegade is Captain Astix, former COM of the MC-90 Warspite.
 
5) The Elite question
The IW Elite is placed on the reopened MC-60 Warhammer.
This MC-60 will only hold the Elite squadron, no COM and now WC. The Elite CMDR is put under direct command of the BGCOM / IWXO.
Now we need an Elite squadron...
Shadow squadron will be reopened on the MC-60 Warhammer. The selection process for the new CMDR of Shadow squadron is still running, but it should be done in the next few days.

New IW squadron roles and ships
With the changes in the IW´s structure, the squadron roles and ships had to be redone. Here´s the current list:

awards


An old award revived
An old IW award, the "Chosen One", has been revived. While it was awarded to the highest scorer on the IW Battle Board in former times, it is now given to the leader in the IW´s ongoing effort to increase in size.
The Chosen One (CO) is the member (except for IWCOM and IWXO) who has recruited the most pilots to the IW since 1st January 2001.
Currently the title is being held by First Lieutenant Abel Malik of Razor squadron.

Echelon Guardian - 02/2001
The high honor of wearing the Echelon Guardian for this month went to Sergeant Major Viper Axxemann, XO of White squadron.
