Congratulations to all the new Ensign Pilots (salutes). It is tradition for newly commissioned officers attaining flight status to pay a cubit to the enlisted person rendering a first salute to them. Payments will be received in Joe's Bar, preferably before you get shot up by the Toasters. Also congratulations those attaining "Top Gun" status. And a special OORAH to the Pointy Nosed Viper Jocks and Rabid Raptor Drivers of the Raven Battle Group, you rock.  - Paul "Iceworm" Oakley, 1ST SERGEANT, NCOIC, Battlestar Raven Marine Detachment.

And a Happy Birthday Group Salute and "OOHRAH" to the one that makes it all possible, the "Mama Raven", the Boss, Raven Actual: DragonLady (Salutes).

So this is inspired by John David "Buzzsaw" Feagin, I'm simply adding a Raptor one of it's own special blend because Raptor, that's why. It may not be as good but hey, Raptors didn't have one :P

The Raptor Pilot's Creed:

This is my Raptor.

This is my beast, and I will tame it.

This is the eyes, this is the ears of the fleet.

Without my Raptor, I am blind. Without my Raptor, my comrades-in-arms are blind. 

I do not seek the glory, I do not seek the fame. I seek what will bring those who need me home.

I serve in defense of my comrades. I will bring them home. I go out when all others fail. I fly where others fall.

No mission too great, no challenge to strong. With my Raptor, I will succeed. If the call goes out, I will be there. 

I am one with my Raptor, I flow as one. In sync with my Raptor, no foe shall best me. My strength is in my agility, my trust in my Raptor to function.

Though one day I may fall, one day I may stumble, before the Gods this is not that day. Today I fly, today I fight, as long as I have breath in my lungs, for the Colonies and the people I serve.

The Viper Pilot's Creed:

This is my Viper. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

My Viper is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life.

Without me, my Viper is useless. Without my Viper, I am useless in not fraking dead. I must fly my Viper true. I must shoot straighter than my enemy who is trying to kill me. I must shoot him before he shoots me. I will...

My Viper and I know that what counts in war is not the rounds we fire, the noise of our burst, nor the smoke we make. We know that it is the hits that count. We will hit...

My Viper is human, even as I, because it is my life. Thus, I will learn it as a brother. I will learn its weaknesses, its strength, its parts, its accessories, its sights and its canons. I will keep my Viper clean and ready, even as I am clean and ready. We will become part of each other. We will...

Before God, I swear this creed. My Viper and I are the defenders of the Colonies. We are the masters of our enemy. We are the saviors of my life.

So be it, until victory is the Colonies' and there is no enemy, but peace!

The Battlestar Crewman's Creed:

This is our Battlestar. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

Our Battlestar is our best friend. It is our home. We must master it as we must master our lives.

Without her crew, our Battlestar is useless. Without our Battlestar, her crew is useless if not fraking dead. We must defend our Battlestar true. We must shoot straighter than our enemy who is trying to kill us. We must shoot him before he shoots us. We will...

Our Battlestar and we know that what counts in war is not the rounds we fire, the noise of our burst, nor the smoke we make. We know that it is the hits that count. We will hit...

Our Battlestar is human, even as we, because it is our life. Thus, we will learn it as a brother. We will learn its weaknesses, its strength, its parts, its accessories, its sensors and its weapon systems. We will keep our Battlestar clean and ready, even as we are clean and ready. We will become part of each other. We will...

Before God, we swear this creed. Our Battlestar and we are the defenders of our Colonies. We are the masters of our enemy. We are the saviors of our lives.

So be it, until victory is the Colonies' and there is no enemy, but peace!

"WARNING: CYLONS ON AISLE 26, COMICPALOOZA HOUSTON. BATTLESTAR RAVEN ARRIVES JUNE 17."
The Houston Cylons have set up a cultural display on Aisle 26 of the ComicPalooza Brown Convention Center in an attempt to win the 'hearts and minds" of the public, including members from the UK Fan & Costuming Club. The Raven Chapter will counter with the premier of the museum class model of the "Beast", the Mercury class Battlestar Raven, Flagship Vessel and Chapter of the Battlestar Galactica Fan Club.

Just an apology for my long absence. I've been going through a lot of personal stuff but back and hoping to get to know everyone better.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TRIREME ACTUAL !

Monday, May 2 is Keith "Leonidas" Ranson's Birthday. The name synonymous with Toaster recycling. The man that invented Saturday night BFC chat-room Fleet Missions. Trireme Actual is top notch pilot and leader and former CAG, and earned his command at the first Commissioned Gunstar Escort in the Battlestar Raven Battle Group.  Always ready to administer encouragement or a swift kick to motivate and get things done. Now if we could just get him to come out of his shy shell and open up a little it would be great.

The cake was delivered by Marines, but don't know if it came from his pilots or the Cylons. Either way, I'd have it checked by an EOD Tech.

So here's to one of the few pointy-nosed Viper jocks I'd follow on a walk-in-the-woods patrol. OOHRAH!!! SO SAY WE ALL!

Had a great time at EmCon where we all met the Chief Aaron Douglas...what an awesome guy, so friendly and looked like he enjoyed his time in Nottingham too.  Loads of club members came along in costume so good pics.  Lots to see in Nottingham too and some great pubs including the Pitcher and Piano - as recommended by the Chief - and Ye Olde Trip to Jerusalem a pub that has been there since 1189....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY REAMER

Today, April 29 is Roger "Reamer" Barstow's Birthday. The hotshot CAG of the Battlestar Raven Air Group is always there for his Club, his Friends and his Shipmates. Remember, he is the one that built and donated the raffle Viper model with lights and a glass case to help out a Club Member. For a tough leader, he is a dedicated and selfless man, and, I'm proud to say, my Friend. Here's to you Reamer, Happy Birthday and Thanks. SO SAY WE ALL! I believe some well-wishers are already celebrating.

Went to this fun show today.  Our changing room was one of the Executive boxes with views over the famous cricket ground...very nice.  We were able to field a large number of different costumes which was unusual.  We had madame president, Armistice Six, NCP Officer, Prisoner, Old style Warrior and Chrome Centurion, Deck hand, Marine and of course BDUs and Duty Blues.  Here are some pics....

One Week after the Mission at Zebulon; Ens. 'Freya' Willis is In Trireme CIC after Shuttling Parts and Supplies from the Raven ,And Talking with Trireme CO Leonidas.

"Well, that should be it Sir;They're Probably Finished offloading Now;Anything you need me to Take Back?"

A Couple of things;A Few Smaller Items That have been Boxed up,Checked,and Should have already been delivered to your Raptor by Now;And This(Pulls out A bottle of Honey Ambrosia) Hand this to Lt. Red Dog of my Old Squadron;Tell Him I Said He did a Superb Job of Leading the Spartans;And, Hopefully, He'll get A Squadron of his Own,Soon.

" Very Nice! I Concur with you Sir; He Actually Saved My Butt out there;I'll see He gets this And the Message!" (Salutes)

Leonidas Returns Salute,Freya Departs.

 Two Hours Later; Trireme is Maintaining Escort Position with the Raven:

"DRADIS Contact,Sir." Says XO 'Bunny' Nonemaker; What We Got? " Civilian Cargo Ship,Just Sitting there"

Any ID? "Stand By"       " A Very Old Ship; Colonial 3306-L, Registered with Wayne Enterprises of Leonis."

Sitting there,You Say? "According to Sensors..." Adds Tac/Ops Officer 'Faceman' Ursiny ".. The Only thing that's Running is it's RCS System; It Hasn't Moved for the Last Three Hours."

Any Transmissions? " None Sir; If they were Sending out an SOS,We Would have Heard it by Now."

Well, They have to get Help Sometime,From Somewhere; Any Radiologicals? "None Sir; Sensors show it's Clean;Except for the Fact it looks like A Rust Bucket." Adds Bunny.

DJ(Comm Officer Rachel Fish), Patch Me Through;   "I've got them Sir,But There's Some Static Also."

Colonial 3306, This is the Gunstar Trireme, Are you in need of Assistance?

"(Skrreeeek) This is 3306(Bluuurrrt), We're Fine(Saaaact) just some Engine Trouble(Skreeerk) We'll be on our Way Soon;Thanks for Asking(Scrrretch)"

"That's It Sir,Obviously,They're Trying to Blow us Off."

Really? Not THAT Easy! We're Going to take A Look see;DJ, Contact the Raven and Advise them of the SITREP; Let them Know We are Investigating." Yes Sir."

Faceman, We're going to Pay them A Visit; Contact Tusker;Tell him I Want Him and Platoon B Ready to Load into Raptors;Alert the Flight Deck,Tell them to have Raptors 360,362 and 365 Ready in Five Minutes; Bunny,You've got the Store; Alert the Raven CAP to Stand By in Case,Even though chances are, they're not Going Anywhere; Have Chief Cool and one of his Techs Meet us in the Hangar,Also.

"Got it,Sir; Be Careful."

90 Minutes Later,the Trireme Raptors Land on 3306;The Captain and Crew are Obviously Cooperative,But, A Little Apprehensive:

Let me Get this Straight,Your Company is A week Away from Bankruptcy,Yet, You're Still Operating?

"Why Yes Sir; We've got to Make Money Somehow until the Courts tell us to Stop."

Yes, Interesting; And, you're still Running this Ancient Ship,Without hope of Spares?

"We have to use what's Available,Sir."

 Ah-ha, Well, You Certainly won't Mind a Safety Inspection while you're trying to get your Engines running Again?

"No Sir, we should be on Our Way Soon;We have Time Sensitive Cargo;We need to get to Picon ASAP;Everything's in Order I assure you."

Won't Take Long

In the Next hour,several Containers are Opened,Empty; Now, they Approach A Particular Group of Containers:

"Sir, Seriously,We Need to Finish this so we can Go." "What's your Hurry?" Asks Faceman

"This is the Sensitive Cargo I was Telling you About;We have to get it there On Time,or We'll be in Trouble!"

Leonidas Hears Something;He puts his Ear to the Container; He hears Muffled Voices and several "Shh!'

Captain,Open that Container! "But Sir, Our Client will be VERY UNHAPPY if that Cargo is Damaged."

Well,He's Going to be REAL Unhappy,If we have to open it with a GRENADE! Easy way or Hard,Your Choice!

The Captain Nervously Opens the Container,Revealing Cardboard Boxes;"See, Nothing Wrong Here!"

FELDGERCARB! The Last time I Checked,Cardboard Doesn't say "Shh!"

 Leonidas and Tusker Pull Away the Boxes,revealing A Space Housing Five Women Huddled together in A Corner; They are also greeted with a foul Smell as A Bucket in Another Corner being their only Sanitary Facilities,Along with A Case of Water.

Leonidas Emerges and makes a Beeline for the Captain; He Grabs the Captain,and Nails him on the Wall;The Captain is Sweating Profusely.

Captain, I Don't Know which I Hate Worse,The Cylons,or SOMEONE WHO PROFITS FROM THE MISERY OF OTHERS!

TUSKER! I WANT ALL THESE MOTHERFRAKKERS PLACED UNDER ARREST NOW! Leonidas,Holding back his Rage.

The Crew are Handcuffed, and Placed under Guard;The Rest of the Containers are Searched;Three more are found to have bogus Cargo with Living Spaces For Women;Obviously,This Ship was Involved in Transporting 'Comfort Women',Better Known as 'Socialators';An Illegal Trade in the Colonies,Perpetrated in the Outpost Worlds .

A Total of 25 Women are Found;They are taken to A more comfortable Part of the Ship; Many are Nervous,others are Relieved.

Chief Cool Returns from the Engine Room: OK,Chief,Any chance This thing will Go? "Not much longer,Sir; The way the Frakkers have been Running this old Bucket,They've just About KILLED These Engines! We Might be Able to Nurse this Junk to Chaska Station,About A Day Away." Never Mind,Chief,We're Going to Call for A Tow.

"The Crap People will Stoop to" Says Faceman  There are some who will go Lower than that,Faceman;

Anyway, Contact the Raven: Request they Send Two Shuttles with Medics; Some of these Women need to be Checked out;Have them send Blindsword too;We have some New Customers for his Brig;Then call Chaska Station;Tell them there's A Derelict they need to come and Get Before it Contaminates the Spacelanes!

Here are the Photos of my latest Completion: The Battlestar THEMISTOCLES; This Is Basically the BamBamm/Fantasic Plastic Kit I Bought some time Ago; This made it's debut at The Friday Night Meeting of the IPMS/Lafayette Scale Modelers;Photos by Mike Kloppenburg.

This was the Battlestar 'Leonidas' Served on Prior to the Raven;He Got his Nugget Training there after Graduating from the Academy,and Eventually Exceeded Expectations; Many Pilots and Crew still there Remember Him Well.

Hello Colonials,

As you all know, Battlestar Galactica Fan Club's Flagship Chapter has just recently celebrated it's 5th Chapter Anniversary as a group. The Battlestar Raven is truly humbled by all the blessings, accolades it has been receiving and continue to grow both in quantity and quality as a group. The group could not have done it without her loyal and talented members, friends and all her fans.  During its 5th Chapter Anniversary as a group, it was finally revealed to the public, the project that is being worked.  It is a personalize version of the Mercury Class Battlestar, RDM version of the Battlestar Pegasus.  It is personalize because it will bear the name Raven-BFC 002 right where the seal will be.  The model is a studio scale size that is at least 6 feet long and about 3-4 feet in width depending how far out the landing bay/launch pad will extend out on the side.  This model is unlike others  and  will be the first one of its kind built with such details. One of those details has already been revealed but not all,  at the Raven's FB fan page -

http://www.facebook.com/BattlestarRavenBFC002  

This model came about as I was looking for a builder to build one for.  My passion for BSG led me to wanting to own my own model and was not settling for just the smaller model.  I wanted something BIG that will help inspire others about the show as it has inspired me. It is more effective when seen as they say.   I am a collector so I love owning unique things in my collection.  So a man by the name of Dan Joplin of D & L Fantasy Arms, came forward and presented himself to me and told me, he will build one for me.  He is the same person that I helped recruited to the combine convention of Galacticon 3 and Comicpalooza.  After talking with him, a contract was drawn during Comicpalooza 2015, to build this magnificent model for me that will be used representing the Battlestar Raven Battle Group at conventions.  This project means a lot to the person building this for me and my group.  Why you ask?  This will be his last BIG project because according to his opthamologest, he only has about 60% of his site and could be blind in 3 to 5 years and has advanced arthritis, and maybe retiring from doing what he is doing now.  He will just do some personal pieces to leave for his family and that I maybe receiving his last and best project of his life's work. That is why he is pouring his heart out making this model.   When he told me this over the phone, I did not know what to say but felt truly thankful for everything he has been doing to build this project for me.  And you know what they say about the end results from things made and built from love...it is priceless and you will hold it dearly close to your heart because it is one of a kind.

So folks, I would like to personally invite all of you, especially all the Ravens from all around, to join the Raven Houston Contingent crew led by Raven Marine NCOIC, Paul "Iceworm" Oakley, to the debut of the Raven "Beast" , this summer at Comicpalooza.  We will have some special guest with us.  They are the founders of our sister club from the UK-Battlestar Galactica Fan & Costuming Club.  The Raven "Beast" will be the pride of the Raven Fleet and will represent the mother club ( BFC) with honor anywhere it goes.  And we hope that the "Beast" will become your pride as well too.  It is as close as we are all going to get, to feeling being aboard a real Battlestar. ;-) :-) 

Thank you all for your time and patience!  Our next two events where we will have some representations will be as follows:

Wizard World- Madison, Wisconsin ( Led by Raven XO- Steve Tweed)

Traders Village Houston Comic Con- ( Led by Tim The Cylon )

In Service,

DragonLady 

BFC Vice President

Commanding Officer-Battlestar Raven-BFC 002

Greetings All,

I was fortunate to be able to plan the spring op. This was a continuation of the November Op Where the Raven received Intel from our rescued hostage that the Cylons had occupied the nearby planet Zebulon.

A Raptor was dispatched to perform a recon mission and discovered that the Cylons had built a very large Raider manufacturing plant.

It was decided that the Raven Battle Group must take action and destroy the facility and take out as many Cylons along the way.

The Op was set to take place on Saturday the 2^nd of April at 10:00pm but as always the Raven Battle Group is ready to take on the Cylons.

The op took place in the main chat room and for the next mission everyone is invited to attend.

We had a substantial turn out for this event. You are more than welcome to read what took place during the latest Op and I look forward to seeing more of our members for the next mission.
