(Note: Any replies to anything in here should be made to the Vanguard Egroups at (Wing_XV@yahoogroups.com) or to me individually at (ruler2b@hotmail.com).

It was that time again, a weekly meeting with the Wing Commander and all of the Vanguard's pilots and staff. The amphatheater was full, nearly every seat was taken, the pilots filed into the room and took seats in squadron sections. On stage sat the Wing Commander, MAJ Ekim Yellek, and the Commodore, Vice-Admiral Bevel Leeson. As the pilots all took their seats, Ekim walked upto the podium and called the room at attention, the pilots snapped to their feet. "As you were," Ekim smiled. "Well it's about three-eighths of the way through Supremacy Comp IV. We've done quite well, but it could be better, a lot of the veteran pilots are dragging." Ekim glared evilly at them. ;) "But all in all I am quite proud of what we've done, we're hovering around 10,000 points right now, and the Avenger is probably a thousand or two more, but we're catching up and we shall beat them. The Intrepid however is at almost 16,000 points, to catch them we'll need a lot of hard work and determination. But the best news is we have passed the Mutt and we're charging ahead full speed. I am proud of this group and you should be too." Ekim paused and smiled on the group. He then looked to Leeson who had nothing further to add. "Okay then, Dismissed! Commanders remember there is a Commanders meeting Sunday, 2200 EST."

Well that’s just the comments from me for now, keep reading important information still ahead.

Vanguard Standing Orders

Standing Order #1: (RL) Real Life first!
Of course the first and foremost thing is RL. It is highly recommended to take all RL matters first and before all ship functions, unless you just don't care. I would like to enforce this order to all members. But please be reminded that you should inform your superiors of any situation so that we can count you on LOA, and don't forget to mark your profile stating your on Leave. Even if your only going to be on leave for 2 days, please mark your absence. This way if it takes longer than we know where you are and won't count you as MIA/AWOL.


Standing Order #2: SC IV flying
As I would think you may know we’re in a fight for our reputation right now. Everything you do for the fleet in the months of April and May count so get active and have some fun doing it.

Standing Order #3: Squadron Histories!
So I am now implementing something, I’d like to see a wing history and squadron histories for every squadron onboard. Histories can be fictional or what not and should include all members of the squad in the history as well as the cmdr.

Shopping List
Fly all the battles you can… and not free missions, cause I hate BSF’ing those things one at a time. :P

Top Squadron of the Week
Hornet! Way to go Guys.
Top Squadron of the Month for March
As announced previously the WC’s Own for the month of March was Python, congratulations to the pilots and it’s rookie cmdr, CM Glorick. I’d like to see every squadron take one of these during my tenure as WC to show an all around wing.

As promised, I've decided on a new BGCOM for the TIE Corps Battlegroups: Many congratulations go out to the former Wing VIII Wing Commander, Vice Admiral Drake!

As many of you will know by now, a couple of days ago, Admiral Mell announced his decision to step down as BGCOM of the TIE Corps Battlegroup.
