Things have slowed down just a bit this week. I have extended the Elite Squad Competition to the 21st of July, hoping that more activity will come out of it and it should give the troops enough time to finish their stories.

We seem to be getting a lot of members coming back from Extended Leave. We just need to get them into positions before they fall “inactive” I hate to see people I know can be very active fall apart.

I would really like to see more recruits passing their training. I know talon has had a tough time with his e-mail problems being the Army and Navy’s TO at the same time. Therefore, I would like to have as much of us helping him out as possible till he finds himself an assistant. Idealistically troops should have to wait longer then 2 days to be placed in a squad, there was a time when that happened, and I think we can bring it back :)

I would also like to encourage reports from the SL up to the AHC, haven’t had one of those for a while.

IRC activity has really slowed down. I would like to see that pick up a lot. Therefore, this is a message to our commanders to try and get as many people onto IRC as possible.

We have had tons of new recruits lately. Thanks goes to those who recruited them. Put I’d like to welcome a few new people into the squads. PFC Dez into Iron Horse, PFC Dakkon to Wraiths squad, PFC Slyer also to Wraiths Squad, and PFC Tamale to Panthers Squad. Congratulations, and have fun and stay active.

I would like to thank Colonel Talon for his excellent job on the Army Headquarters website, for his efforts I would like to present him with a Blue Medallion. Congratulations and keep up the good work!
