SPARTANS!
OK People, Get those Sugarplums out of your Heads and Listen up!
We Have An important Escort Mission Today; We Are Escorting A VIP to the Raven; He Carries MANY Names,But his Callsign is 'Kringle'. He will Be Bringing Cargo to the Raven; He will be Flying A Retired First Cylon War Raptor,Which He has Added Extra Towing Power in Front of It; The Lead Tow will Have A Red Running light on it's Nose, So, DO NOT SHOOT! The Raptor,Reportedly Painted Red in Color, Will Be Accompanied by Five Colonial Shuttles.
Our Job is to Intercept this Convoy, And Escort it to A Safe Landing on the Raven; All Eyes will Be Out For Toasters!
Skids Up In Twenty From Port Flight Deck; Dismissed!

IN MEMORIAM:
GLEN A. LARSON
1937 - 2014

Spartans,
A Sad Day: This Morning, it was Announced that the Creator of all we Know and Revere as Battlestar Galactica, Has passed Away.
He was a Magnificent,and Prolific Writer and Producer of Not only BSG,but Many other Memorable TV Shows including The Six Million Dollar Man,Buck Rogers in the 25th Century, and Knight Rider.
He Had Come up with the Concept for BSG in the 1960s,When Star Trek was just Beginning to find its legs; After the First 'Star Wars' film Hit the Big Screen in 1977, Mr. Larson Finally was Able to Bring the Saga Of A Star World to Fruition; Despite A Legal Battle with 20th Century Fox Over Alledged Plagarisim, The Tale Of A Rag-Tag Fugitive Fleet Became A World-Wide Sensation; It was unfortunate that it only Lasted one Season,Due in part to it's Expensive Production Costs.
However,Those of Us Who remember The Struggle of Humans from Another Galaxy to find their Brothers Here On Earth, Never Lost Faith That The Saga Would be Revived And Retold; It has Been Kept Alive Thru Conventions, Novels, Comic Books, Fan Fiction, And other Institutions to Make Sure this Compelling Story Is Never Forgotten.
One such Institution is Right Here: The Battlestar Fan Club, Where We All can Play in the Universe that Mr. Larson Created; And One Such Fan,Mr. Ronald D. Moore,A Writer for Star Trek, Has Taken BSG to Another Level, And Has Shown the Sci-Fi Fantasy Universe That BSG Has A Place in Popular Culture.
The Potential of BSG Fandom Is infinite; And, We Must Always remember the Man Who Showed us the Way, And Given us an Adventure to take with us to the Stars!
SO SAY WE ALL!
Leonidas,CAG

SPARTANS!
A couple of Announcements; First, please Welcome Our Newest Pilot: Ens. Tara 'Caprica 6' Cole; Yes, She Happens to be A Cylon Model Six; However, She Has Pledged To Help Us In Our Fight, So, She will be treated as A Equal Spartan! I Expect You All to show Her What It Means to serve in the Finest Air Wing In the Fleet!
And, I Am Assigning Raptor #339,of SEEKERS SQUADRON, As A Designated Strike Raptor at The Disposal Of SPARTAN SQUADRON; It will Carry The Name "ARES", And is Crewed by Lt.jg.'Judge',And Lt.Jg.'Money'.
Finally,Next CAP: PrimeTime and Goose,Take Caprica 6, and report to the Starboard Flight Deck; Skids Up in Fifteen........MOVE IT!

ATTENTION ON DECK! At Ease!
As You Know, We Are On The Way To Isis 281,Which Is Being Harassed By The Enemy; You Will Know What To Do Out There!
However, I Must Sadly Say That We Have Lost One Of Our Best....To The Enemy! Lt. Baroness,Unfortunate To Say, Has Been Confirmed As A Cylon Sleeper Agent By Dr.O'Donnell; She Was One Of The Finest Trainers I Had Under My Command; Unfortunate We Did Not Know EVERYTHING About Her; Right Now,She Is In The Brig,In Heavy Restraints; She Will Be Dealt With After We Are Finished At Isis 281; This Should Teach Everybody About One Thing: VIGILANCE! We May Kill A Thousand Cylons In The Air, But The Enemy May Be Closer Than We Think!
Enough About That; Only One Thing Left To Say:
And: PREPARE FOR GLORY!
Leonidas,CAG

We Honor CPO Ronnie 'Cueball' Beaton, The Raven's Mechanic Extrordinare!

AT EASE,Spartans!
I Know You Are All Thinking About Tonight's Mission; However, Today, Is A Day To Thank A Certain Individual!
The Individual I Am Referring To Is The One Who Makes All That We Do Possible; This Person Has Worked Tirelessly To Establish The Foundation Of What We Are; This Person Has Gone Beyond The Call Of Duty, And Has Helped Us Gain A Foothold In The Annals Of BSG Fandom And Lore!
She Is A wearer Of Many Hats: Commander Of The Raven, And, Vice-President Of the BFC!
SPARTANS! WE HONOR THE ONE WHO'S BIRTHDAY IS TODAY!
OUR COMMANDER,DRAGONLADY!! SO SAY YOU ALL? (SO SAY WE ALL!!)
(O U U ! O U U ! O U U ! )
So Say we All!
