<p>Sherman Cottle - Young Doctor Bio, First Blood</p>
<p>'"One of these friends was a young Doctor named Sherman Cottle, serving his initial medical internship. He was born to his trade, son and grandson of doctors. He had all the tools: brilliant, confident to a fault, and strong willed with a stern but sincere bedside manner.

<p>'"One of these friends was a young Doctor named Sherman Cottle, serving his initial medical internship. He was born to his trade, son and grandson of doctors. He had all the tools: brilliant, confident to a fault, and strong willed with a stern but sincere bedside manner. It was said he could close a gash with three stitches on a fruit fly and leave no scar. “Doc” was known to patch up enemies as well as friends. His morals and fortitude had only one flaw: smoking. He was trying to stop…….for the thirteenth time.</p>
<p>"...CIC to Doc Cottle, casualties on the port gun deck.."</p>
<p>Doc Cottle’s station was looking more like a morgue than a hospital. Blood was everywhere. Seriously wounded were courageously trying to drag themselves back to the fight. Yet Corporal Mann was awestruck by the scene of Doc Cottle working feverishly and quickly on many wounded. One gash was held together with clamps, a fracture was splinted with tape, one sailor died in mid-treatment and was quickly slid aside. Doc concentrated, healed and moved to the next for the longest period of time anyone had ever seen him without a cigarette in his mouth."'</p>

<p>First and formost, I would like to say first, that the new Raven Marine logo is <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>ONLY</strong> </span>exclusive to the Raven Marines.

<p>Each graphic on the newly Raven Marine logo has a meaning. It was specifically chosen for a reason and put together in the manner it did. I am new to the fandom world so as I learned more about it, I wanted a design that stands for something. So with Raven Actual's help and ability to put things together, this was brought to life. Hopefully this will make the Raven Marines unique in its own sense and that to those the FEW and the PROUD, current and future Raven Colonial Marines, will be able to proudly wear it when this becomes an official patch. Raven Marine NCOIC Paul "Iceworm" Oakley will do the honor of explaining what it stands for.</p>

<p>Colonials,</p>
<p></p>
<p>Two new convention Banners will be making its debut next week that will be representing not only Battlestar Raven, but the mother club , Battlestar Galactica Fan Club. These two new convention banners of course will be accompanied by the Raven's original banner as well. The two banners will also become what I call "the Traveling Banners". It means, where the Raven is being represented by other members of Battlestar Raven other than myself, these banners will be there. The original Raven banner if far too important and precious to be shipped around as it contains signatures from cast members of both the TOS BSG Series and RDM Series. Those signatures were obtained by those Raven Members who were with me at Galacticon 3, as a gift to me which I dedicate to my whole Staff and Crew. Without them, there is NO Raven. I am approaching my second year as her Commanding Officer this coming August 1, 2014. And I will say this, it has been such an honor and such a pleasure so far, leading a group that is full of class act and talented members. The Raven has truely indeed evolve! And as I stated early this year, it will be THE YEAR OF THE RAVEN!</p>

<p>So Say We All!</p>
