GM_Kadann | Welcome all to another Vast Empire meeting |
GM_Kadann | If someone has the Army report, msg me now |
GM_Kadann | I've been pretty busy lately in real life |
GM_Kadann | doing a lot of unpacking and moving things around the house since I got married |
GM_Kadann | I am hoping that I'll get some more time here soon |
GM_Kadann | Have a few projects I would like to finish up |
GM_Kadann | I would like to thank those that have sent in some donations to the Vast Empire |
GM_Kadann | I noticed that there were a few recent donations, so I thank those that sent in the donations |
GM_Kadann | Let's move onto some division reports now |
GM_Kadann | Doesn't look like we have an Army report today |
GM_Kadann | So let's go ahead with the Navy |
GM_Kadann | Denethor, you have the Navy report today? |
CDR_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | yes |
CDR_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | ok, this is my first report as Wing Commander of Phoenix, so I hope you all enjoy |
CDR_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | Lots happened this week, mainly last sunday. Line Captain Shazam decided that it would be best if he stepped down from his high positions and let those that he'd been training the last few months to take his place. |
CDR_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | myself and Jegora Fal were both promoted in rank and position to fulfill these duties - I was promoted to Commander and Wing Commander, and Jegora was promoted to 2nd Lieutenant and Training Officer of the Navy Academy. Shazam has taken up the positions of Wing Executive Officer and Training Executive Officer to assist myself and Jegora in the transition, to help it be smoother |
CDR_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | Jegora Fal was also promoted to be Squadron Commander of Nazgul, with CPO Gshlecc as his XO |
CDR_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | both myself and Jegora were awarded the Legion of Merit by NCC Japeth, who also awarded Shazam for all of his continuous dedication to the Navy over the years with a promotion to Commodore |
CDR_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | it is now time award the status of Captain's Own and Imperial Guardian |
CDR_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | because of increased activity in a squadron made up of general fresh pilots, Kaph has been awarded the title of Captain's Own for the month of June |
CDR_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | and due to his continual activity and eagerness to improve the NAvy, I am awarding the title of Imperial Guardian to Jegora Fal |
CDR_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | also, due to increased activity, Flight 2 of Viper has been awarded Merit Cross's, and their Flight Leader, Anden Beliam has been promoted to Chief Petty Officer |
CDR_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | all 3 squadrons reported in, but not all of their members did, so I am instituting a Navy wide AWOL check |
CDR_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | so send in emails and PMs to your squadron leaders ASAP |
CDR_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | congratulations to all on promotions and other commendations. I'm now done with my report |
GM_Kadann | Thanks Denethor |
GM_Kadann | Cosmic, you have the Army report today? |
KO_GN_Cosmic | I do. |
KO_GN_Cosmic | Not too many reports this week, although that's expected for those in school and in the quarter system - finals have come around. |
KO_GN_Cosmic | At the moment, my webmail has been bugged again by some annoying spam, so I'm currently in the process of trying to transfer over to Thunderbird - if you sent me reports via email, I may/may have not gotten it (but thats a problem on my end). |
KO_GN_Cosmic | Before I mention some recommendations, I'd like to first say that it would be great if the leaders of your squads, etc., would send in reports even if you have nothing/very little to report. |
KO_GN_Cosmic | There may be nothing to report, but as an AHC member - having nothing in your hands at all is even worse since we don't know if you're dead, just a little inactive, etc. |
KO_GN_Cosmic | Now, on to some good stuff. |
KO_GN_Cosmic | First off, this is a very long overdue award to someone who has earned it. |
KO_GN_Cosmic | The Gold Cross's description is as follows: Awarded to members who have posted over 250+ storynet posts. |
KO_GN_Cosmic | Since neither Grand General Fury or High Colonel Merrick are present (and due to the fact that this award has been requested in the past numerous times and approved but never bestowed), I request permission from Grand Moff Kadann to bestow the Gold Cross upon Sergeant First Class Luckystar (as it is an award that only the XO may award). |
GM_Kadann | I am going to have to defer this to either Grand General Fury or High Colonel Merrick since I am not in the Army and don't have records for Sergeant First Class Luckystar at this time |
KO_GN_Cosmic | Understood. |
KO_GN_Cosmic | We'll continue on with other things down this list. |
KO_GN_Cosmic | "Platoon Drunkard" Sniping101 has a few requests, and his recommendations will now be recognized: |
KO_GN_Cosmic | Is Senior Sergeant Namyr present? |
| * SGT_Namyr yawns and steps forward, saluting smartly |
KO_GN_Cosmic | Sergeant Namyr, for your activity, you have been recommended for elevation to the rank of Senior Sergeant (I gave it away :P). Congratulations. |
| * KO_GN_Cosmic Salutes |
| * SGT_Namyr salutes and goes back to her seat |
KO_GN_Cosmic | It doesn't look like any of the other recipients are here, but here are their awards as well: |
KO_GN_Cosmic | Dante has been promoted to Sergeant |
KO_GN_Cosmic | X-Ray is hereby promoted to Lance Corporal |
KO_GN_Cosmic | Ah, he's here. |
| * CPO_Gshlecc|LCPL_X-ray salutes |
| * KO_GN_Cosmic Salutes |
KO_GN_Cosmic | Apologies for not seeing you there, and congratulations on your promotion, Lance Corporal. ;) |
CPO_Gshlecc|LCPL_X-ray | thank you, sir |
KO_GN_Cosmic | Voth is also hereby promoted to the rank of Lance Corporal. |
KO_GN_Cosmic | For Sergeant Ken Alibek, a request for him to receive the Emperor's Will 2nd Class has been made for his outstanding activity in Iron Horse. |
KO_GN_Cosmic | On the Academy side, I do have a new story up for the trainees: Immortalis. I'm hoping you guys (the new trainees going to read this) will take a look at it and start participating on it. More story will come from me by the end of today. |
KO_GN_Cosmic | In concluding, I'd like to re-emphasize the need to send in reports despite the fact that you may have very little-to-nothing to report. It makes a difference for the Army High Command when determining who exactly is active. |
KO_GN_Cosmic | For those that have received awards, congratulations - you've earned them. |
KO_GN_Cosmic | That's all from my end. |
GM_Kadann | Thanks Cosmic |
GM_Kadann | I don't have anything else for today. |
GM_Kadann | Thanks to all who came! |
GM_Kadann | Dismissed |
