SPARTANS! PREPARE FOR GLORY!
SPARTANS!
Today is the 15th Anniversary of the Battlestar Fan Club; We here owe A lot to Those who have Put in the Work,and Are Still Putting in the Work to Make the BFC one of the Biggest Fan Organizations In the genre of Science Fiction!
It takes A lot Of Work,Imagination,and Enthusiasm to Make something where we can All Add our Stories to This Saga Of A Star World; It is OUR Responsibility,and that of Future Generations,to Keep The Stories Coming,and to Perpetuate The Lonely Quest of Humans to Find Earth; So Say We All!
Next CAP: Batman,Short Round,And Thumper: Starboard Flight Deck,Skids up in Ten!
CAG
Spartans,
It is my Sad Duty to Announce that Actor Patrick MacNee,Best Known for Being the Voice of the Cylon Imperious Leader,And the Role of Count Iblis in the Original BSG,Has Passed; His Distinctive Voice Is Something we will All Remember as part of the Culture of BSG,So Say We All!
Leonidas,CAG
BTW, No Disrespect intended for the MOMS Who Have to play BOTH Roles,For their Jobs are the Toughest of All!
SPARTANS!
First, I would like To Wish All The Fathers A Very Happy Fathers Day! The Point that is often most Forgotten is that Anyone can bring A Child into the World;But to Be A Parent,To Provide for the Child,To Tech the Child Core Values,Especially Right From Wrong, To Nurture the Child,and Help Him/Her on A Path,That is What Describes The Male Parent,aka The Father; It is one job that is Not for the Faint of heart; It requires Dedication,Sacrifice,and Most Importantly,Love.
Next, There is A Mission Scheduled for Saturday Night,June 27th; The Briefing for OP 'BACK ATCHA' Is posted On the Raven's Main BFC Page.
Finally, Today is the Birthday of the One Individual Who has Worked Hard to Make all that We do Possible; Despite the fact this Person has A Busy Career in the (Real World) Military,and A Family at Home and Overseas; This Person has Been Front and Center Behind Making the Battlestar Fan Club,and the Flaghip of the Fleet,The Raven,Remain at the Forefront of BSG Fandom and Lore; It is with this Dedication that We are Adding to this Saga of a star World,And Perpetuating The Adventure for Future Generations!
WE SALUTE THE VICE PRESIDENT OF THE BATTLESTAR FAN CLUB,
ADMIRAL CHERRY 'DRAGONLADY' OCLIMA !
SPARTANS,SALUTE! (OUU! OUU! OUU!)
Now, the Next CAP: Booster Gold,Short Round and Foxy Chrome, Port Flight Deck,Skids up In Ten!

WE SALUTE RAVEN ACTUAL!

Leonidas,CAG
