* KAPPA SQUADRON REPORT * CPT Tempest * February 16th, 2003 *
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
A sad week for Kappa, as we've lost a pilot again. Although he was
talking about resigning since a while ago, it is nevertheless very sad
to now really lose Dash. Well boy, you said we prolly wouldn't miss
your flying activity, which is prolly right... but we'll certainly
miss the rest of you. Hope to see ya on IRC from time to time at
least. :(
Some more bad wing news, Jack Stone stepped down from Theta command,
but will stay active as a pilot. And he has been promoted to Major, so
congrats despite your decision to step down. :)
Also congratulations to Stele, who has been promoted to the rank of
General.
