Happy Thanksgiving Day to Everyone!

Hello Everyone,

            Thank you all for your continuous support and being members of the Battlestar Fan Club!  Another year is passing us by as we reflect on what has happened throughout the year.  Many of us thankful for the blessings we have and are fortunate to share on to others.  Thanksgiving Day is not just about celebrating and giving thanks for all things.  It’s also a day of reflection in which we all take a moment to remember others.  People in our lives whom have passed away,  Memories we cherish that span our lifetime,  Looking to the future because at times life throws us a curve ball.  However, through it all we remain steadfast in order to continue striving forward.  Continuously reminded by the people whom have touched our lives.

            Enjoy your Thanksgiving Day with your Family and Friends.  If you happen to be folks that also help out at shelters feeding the homeless, WE THANK YOU.  In closing I want to say thank you to all our members.  Who are here in the states and around the globe doing your part remembering and keeping Battlestar Galactica alive and strong.  Thank you!

Respectfully,

FADM Rivera, M.A.(CF)

People of the Fleet:

Fayetteville,NC has undergone another successful gathering of everything geek.

This time, some classic BSG was finally thrown into the mix;Thanks to the appearance of Jack Stauffer (Bojay), The rag-tag fugitive fleet is now A part of Fayetteville's geek community.

Jack helped the con kick off the panel discussions with his take on the struggles he had to endure as an actor;Sadly, only A few people attended this particular panel,but,Jack was gracious to give his anecdotes and advice to those who listened.

12578096254?profile=original

Afterword, Jack met and greeted fans and sold autographs;Plenty of fun was to be had on the Crown Expo Center floor: Cosplay of all types,Collectibles,including comic books and toys, were up for sale;A stage was set for demos and performances,and DJ Clash was spinning tunes for the crowd.

 Wrestlers Arn Anderson(The 4 Horsemen) And Sgt. Slaughter(also of G.I.Joe fame) were also meeting and greeting fans;One of my Alter-Egos, Bulletman,was there to help Sarge keep those nasty Cobras in their place:

 Speaking of G.I. Joe,Comic writer extrordinare  Larry Hama was also in the house:

After Day 1 had wrapped up,I was there for Jack Stauffer's Comedy/Musical Cabaret "Confessions from Downstage Center,or as he puts it,How come I never got the Girl" At A local Holiday Inn; Again,not A lot of attendance,but you know with Jack,wether it's 500,50, or 5 people,The Show must go on! He provided his tale of struggles in grand Broadway style! I'm one of the fortunate few to actually catch his show twice(the first was at Galacticon IV,Seattle,2015).

12578098870?profile=original

As Day 2 began, I presented Jack With A Trireme T-Shirt and Ship's patch in sincere appreciation for coming to Fayetteville,and his continuing to be all he can be for the fans;There is no telling how much longer he will make con appearances,since he,and the rest of the 1978 BSG cast,are getting up in years;But at least we can hope that other cast members,either TOS or RDM,will soon follow;Also Hoping that Team BSG Viper will someday bring their creation to the sand hills of NC.

12578098491?profile=original

Jack did extend an invitation to me to attend All Con in Dallas in March;Oh, how I would love to! However, with my Finances in an Iffy state right now,It kind of looks doubtful,But,That could change;You never  know....

And, The Con Organizers announced that starting in 2020,Fayetteville Comic Con will now be Twice A Year,the first in April,and the second in October;I'm hoping I can do both;However,as with many of us in life,My Bank Account will have the final say.

Regardless of the future,I am happy that we have A base to spread our fandom to our section of the south;And, As long as I am able to,I will do what I can to advance the cause of BSG fandom; So Say We All!

Hello Colonials,

      I ran into this article and looks like a Battlestar Galactica Reboot is in the works from Producer Sam Esmail will be arriving arriving in April of 2020 if there are no unforeseen delays.  This has been shared on BFC FB Page as well.

LINK: https://deadline.com/2019/09/battlestar-galactica-reboot-drama-series-sam-esmail-nbc-streaming-service-peacock-1202736127/

     

      Just remember sooner or later they have find Earth if they go that route. Last thing anyone wants is they drag out the story-line for four seasons or more. If the ratings drop b/c fans loose interest then their goes the show. Shows now are more about money and ratings as far as executives are concerned. They don't give enough time for the show to develop characters fully as well as the story.  Hopefully it does great and fans keep it going by watching.  This looks to be for a streaming service according to the article.

      It is going to be introduced a "New Outline" show perhaps in in different time of Battlestar Galactica. We have the original series, Re-imagined Series, Caprica Series, Blood and Chrome. Just have to wait and see where this story-line fall in.  According to his Tweeter page Sam Esmail says is will be a new story-line within the BSG mythology. Same Producers from the show Mr. Robot.  Lets us all hope and have Faith it does great.  We are the Fans so things are basically out of our control.  Be safe colonials.

******* ACTION MESSAGE ***** ACTION MESSAGE *****
** ATTENTION SQUADRON LEADERS and PILOTS MISSION ALERT **

Attention Colonials,
      The following mission is assigned to all Raven Squadron Leaders and Pilots. Mission parameters are simple and at times can be challenging base on the individual pilots. If you are up to having fun on different levels then step up to meet the challenge. Mission will be broken into different sections and your participation will go a long way into interacting and sharing with your fellow squadron mates.


      One of the key things in order to be a successful Colonial Warrior is being able to assess, improvise, adapt, overcome and continue moving forward. The worst thing that can happen to any pilot is being stagnate. Squadron Leaders are ultimately responsible to keep pilots engage. Whether it is role playing or another area of fun. The goal here is to acquire targets listed with a photo. Some targets will require you be in the photo. This way fellow Pilots can get a chance to meet one another visually while achieving the goals. You have two weeks in order to accomplish the mission parameters please share all photos on the Raven Airwing FB page as well as Battlestar Fan Club page in order for other members to see.


      Mission parameters will be listed below. Everything will be straight forward in order to ensure maximum participation. You will need your cell phone camera, Your mind, Your imagination and steadfast tenacity to engage to finish the mission. Now remember this will be for fun and if you want to invite family members to help you out excellent. Be prepared to travel around your City or Hometown and search / interact with other people if needed.

MISSION PARAMETERS::
1- Find Main Street in your City and take of photo of said sign with city background.

2- Find your local Museum and take photo of the front ensure you are in the photo.

3- If you have a BSG item collectible or otherwise snap a photo.

4- Catch a picture of an aircraft flying overhead.

5- Draw a Colonial Viper TOS(The Original series) or Re-Imagined your choice. If you are a Raptor Pilot draw it. Perfection doesn’t matter here the goal to do the drawing.

6- The quote game. Save an image of your favorite BSG character TOS or Re-Imagined and add a quote they said on the show. For example an image of Adama and the quote, “Sometimes you have to roll a hard six”. Any character from the show post all images for fellow pilots to see.

7- Picture of a City Police or Police Car you must be in the photo. If you ask an Officer they don’t mind.

8- If you like Cosplaying wear it and share the photo.

9- Finally, to finish the mission. A photo of a light post at night. As pilots we all need to be reminded of a guiding light to get us home after every mission.


      You can post your mission accomplishments individually or as a whole if you get them done. If you do them one at a time please include the number that goes with each assignment when posting.

      As a reminder Squadron Leaders and fellow Pilots will be watching and checking Battlestar Raven Airwing FB page. The Link is here:: https://www.facebook.com/RavenAirWingBFC002Official/?tn-str=k*F

Let them all know you are strong and well taking on this simple mission show you conviction to making things happen. I know there are many that may not be able to participate, but I know those of you who will make a difference and carry their torches. Be safe everyone and look forward to see all of you making it happen. The mission parameters are simple and completely achievable the rest is up to you the individual. SO SAY WE ALL! and good luck.

Remembering Sept 11th 2001 Never Forget

This day always saddens me. However, from the ashes roses Unity, Teamwork, Inspiration, Guidance, Action, Selflessness, Unwavering Strength Etc etc. The list goes, but I am sure you know exactly what I am talking about. The attack was that off cowards, but it made all of us aware we are not untouchable. Evil lurks in the dark planning and attacking when anyone least expects. I like so many of you will never forget and more importantly always remember those we have lost. Be safe everyone and always stay safe, Amen.

Colonials,
Greetings to all of you all. I hope all of you have been doing well. I see there has been little activity among the Air Wing personnel. This is understandable because everyone has their own personal life and issues. Real life at times can get the very best of and suck away the fun of Sci Fi. As with all things we use Sci Fi as an escape to get away from the real world problems and enjoy the company of fellow fans. As Battlestar Galactica Fans we are always trying our best to enjoy each others company. Whether that is online or meeting up at a Convention. In the next few days I will be posting a few goals for you as Pilots in the Air Wing to go after. Have fun post photos share with everyone. If you are a Squadron Leader appointed by your Commanding Officer and CAG. Step up have fun and challenge yourself to see if you can make this mission happen. I will post it before the weekend arrives. If you feel that it is time for you as a Squadron Leader to step down and give someone else an opportunity. Please contact your CAG because this will allow for growth and development of fellow Pilots wanting a chance at becoming a Squadron Leader.
Be on the look out for the mission briefing in the next two days. Again it will be released before the weekend I expect all pilots and Squadron Leaders to take a leap of faith and have some fun. Be safe everyone and take care.
FADM Rivera, M.A.(CF)

Battlestar Dreadnought Specs and Background

Battlestar Dreadnought (Heketokares-Class Heavy Battlestar): Specifications: Crew: Approx. 6,000 ships crew + 200 dedicated commtechs Propulsion: 8x Enhanced sublight engines, RCS Clusters Role: Super Carrier/Battleship Hybrid Armaments: 10x Primary batteries (5x Dorsal/Ventral Spine Triple Super-Heavy turrets); 24x Secondary heavy batteries (6x2 twin turrets port/starboard); 40x Tertiary medium batteries port/starboard (10x2 twin turrets port/starboard); many duel AAA/PDC batteries (groups of 6/12 networked batteries); 10x VLS Missile tubes (Nuclear Capable) Defenses & Features: ECM/ECCM; Drone decoy system; Advanced Fleet CIC facilities Aircraft: Full Viper Mk VII compliment, Full Raptor compliment, Aviation facilities: 4x flight pods; 4x flight decks; 160x Viper launch tubes; 4x flight pod hangars; Viper construction facilities Dimensions: Length 2584.2 meters; Background: the Heketonkares-Class Heavy Battlestar is a true goliath. Produced during the 50 year armistice, 5 years prior to the Fall of the Colonies. It truly lives up to its class namesake the “Hundred Handed” goliath of legend. The secondary guns are equal to the huge forward batteries of the Mercury-Class. Its primary turrets are the biggest over made by colonial shipyards, each barrel firing 800cm diameter shells that can shred a Basestar in very short order. & that is w/out the 600cm & 400cm batteries being added. Its unique turret layout offers equal coverage on all arcs other then directly forward. It also has a large aviation compliment in 4 separate flight pods that are recessed into the Dreadnoughts incredibly thick flanks making them very difficult to damage. The Massive forward head section is divided into upper, lower jaw & teeth. The top section is the most heavily armored & contains the ships bridge; incredibly powerful sensors & electronics are buried in the two side sections. The luxurious crew accommodations are sandwiched between the two massively armored sections in “the teeth”, all studded by banks of AAA guns. The primary role of the Dreadnought is to be the Command ship of a large Armada providing heavy artillery & strategic CIC support. It has nearly all-around heavy gun & armor coverage making it ideal for anchoring the center of a fleet formation. This behemoth features dedicated Fleet CIC functions w/ a large dedicated communications staff. Its secondary battery placement makes any attempt to flank the fleet a highly dangerous endeavor. The only truly “safe” attack vector is directly from the prow & this is covered by numerous PDC banks & incredibly thick armor plus the armada it would be at the center of. This makes the Dreadnought a true force multiplier in large scale fleet engagement.
