Yod Squadron
Report #18
10.20.2001 - LC Halcyon

MAJ Halcyon reporting in for Yod Squadron 10.20.01

Fleet News:

The new TCC:XWA is CPT Gord Darkonian

For all us CMDR's/WC's/COM's we can now upload the banners onto the roster ourselves, instead of bugging the FO and XO.

The 16th TO Communique is out, and can be found here.

The ASF Squadron Competition III has ended. Congrats go to the ISD Grey Wolf for becoming the ASF flagship, Odin squadron for being ASF Escort Squadron and RA Brucmack for being the ASF Top Ace!

The new baron is LC Andrzej Mezynski (say it 3 times fast :P). Congrats.

Newsletter #78 has been released and can be looked at here. Newsletter #79 should be out soon, and submissions are being taken for Newsletter #80.

A lot of little bugs dealing with the BSF generator and banner uploading were fixed by code-g0d, XO Kawolski :P

Wing News:

Where to start...Congrats to the newly promoted CPT's Turr and Akhil! The both greatly deserve it! Also some bum of a Yod CMDR got LC :P
Congrats to both LT Kitten-claw and CM Yarik Kelve on their shiny new Bronze Star's! Great job you two!
The Cheth CMDR spot has opened up, so e-mail LC Reaper and COM Proton if you're interested.
LC Mini Minkus has stepped down as Teth CMDR and has asked to go to the reserves. During his tenure as CMDR, he helped make Teth the premiere TIE squadron in the fleer, and he shall be missed.
It is official. LT HicRic is the new Wing IV DOC! He has been busy treating all of our friggin' hangovers from all these promo's and awards. In related news, CorEx stocks, the manufacturer of hangover-pills, has gone up 200% :P
We have received news on a new competition that is similar to a FCHG comp. A mail was sent out over the egroups but if you didn't receive it, you may ask LC Reaper for a copy.
Rememebr, everyone, recruit, recruit, recruit! We need more members in this fine wing of ours :)

Squadron News/Orders:

There is currently a competition on against Praetorian Squadron. The mission is FXWA-33 (atatched) and is to be flown by Tuesday, October 23! I have submissions from Kitten-claw and myself. Deathangel is exempt since he doesn't have XWA. The rest of you don't have that excuse, so go fly :P
Once again, I'd like to congratulate LT Kitten-claw and CM yarik Kelve on their Bronze Stars. If anyone ever has trouble figuring out what a Yodder should be like, just take a look at these two :)
I tried to get a competition with Omega squadron going, but haven't heard from its CMDR for a few days now. I'll try and get us a TIE competition before we go face Tornado squad (yes, we'll be facing them soon too :P)
Only two more spots open in Yod, so go out and try to fill them :)
