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.
Tonight we were were able to host our summer op which was created by one of our Raptor Pilots from the Seekers Squardon Wedge. The title of this op was "Start" This was an action packed op that was very well thought out and a good time was had by all.
This Op was the first from the iniative that the CAG has put in place for the invitation for our members to create our ops.
Here is the transcript from Operation "Start"

FLASH.........AAAAAAH! Savior of the Universe...Is coming to Fayetteville Comic-Con!
In all the Cheesey '80s Glory, Sam Jones has been Confirmed as A Attendee for this year's Comic-Con in Fayetteville NC on October 15/16; This Certainly Makes up for the Loss of Noah Hathaway(The Original Boxey)(The Con Folks are going to try to get Noah Here in 2017); And, It feels like there will be some Electricity Coming, So, Brace Yourselves!
And, If Ming the Merciless and His Minions want to give Flash A Hard Time,He can Call on the GUNSTAR TRIREME for Backup,For We will be there! So, If you happen to be in Fayetteville that weekend,Stop by the Trireme's booth and Say Hi to 'Leonidas' and 'Bunny' ! Further Details can be found at Fayettevillecomic-con.com.
Hello all,
I just received word that WISH con which was to be held in November has been postponed until sometime in 2017. If you were planning on attending you will want to check your email so you can view your options. Once a new date is announced I will be sure to update everyone.
People of the Fleet,
Today, The GUNSTAR TRIREME,First Escort of the RAVEN BATTLE GROUP,is One Year Old;We Stand Before the BFC Fleet as It's Newest Addition;We are,to Date, Proud of What we Have Built so Far;We,of course, Know that we Are Still in our Infancy,and Taking Toddler Steps Forward;However there is Confidence that we have the Solid Foundation for Success;And,With A Dedicated Crew,and Hard Work,That Success will be Assured.
At Galacticon IV, In Seattle,Wash.,One Year Ago, The Trireme was Officially Commissioned in A Ceremony Presided by Lucianna 'KAT' Carro,Where She Read our Official Orders from Fleet Admiral Rivera.
(It was Originally Intended to Have Edward James Olmos(that's right,Adama Himself) Preside;Unfortunately,A Last Minute Development Prevented his attending; Oh Well, Stuff Happens.) However, We Express our Profound Gratitude to Lucianna for Filling in,and Making it Special;WELL DONE,KAT! SO SAY WE ALL!
I was Presented with the Trireme's Booth Banner,And Officially Relieved of My Duties on the Battlestar Raven;
Needless to Say,Galacticon was A Memorable Event!
In the Time Since then,Myself and my Command Staff have been Laying the Foundation for the Trireme to Succeed;There is,Of Course,More Work to be Done;However,as we Bring in New Members, and Continue to Grow;There is No Doubt we will Establish the Basis for Future Chapters to Follow, as the Flagship,the BATTLESTAR RAVEN,Has Done for Us.
Our Mission,Our Mandate,is Simple;As the First Escort of the RAVEN BATTLE GROUP,We are Tasked with Having the Raven's Back in Combat,Pretty Much like in A Real-World Carrier Battle Group where Frigates and Destroyers Protect the Flattop; In The first Few Encounters, The Trireme has Stood Fast Against the Cylon Threat,and Added It's Firepower to the Already Awesome Firepower and Squadrons of the Raven; It is Already Said the Cylons are Shook at what We can do Now.
To Celebrate our First Year In Existence, I Am Revealing TRIREME SHIP PATCHES:
These Patches have been Manufactured by Quality Patches,the Same Company that Made Certain Patches for the Raven;This Company was Highly Recommended by ADM. Dragonlady;And,Up Close, They indeed do Good Work!
The Patches are Three Inches Round In Diameter,Black Thread on White.
From the Initial Batch I Have Ordered, I have Reserved some for Myself,and to Present to Certain Individuals;
These will Be Ideal for Collecting;However, Only OFFICIAL Members of the Crew can Wear these on Uniforms.
I will Have about 35 Patches FOR SALE at $7.00 USD; THERE WILL BE A STRICT LIMIT OF TWO,WHILE SUPPLIES LAST!
If you are Interested in Purchasing, Please PM Me,Either Thru my Personal BFC Page,or My E-Mail kranson@nc.rr.com,and I Can Provide Details(No, I will Not Do This Thru PayPal).
I Am Proud of What we Have Done in our First Year;And, I Have Great Optimism For Our Second Year.
SO SAY WE ALL!
K.A. 'LEONIDAS' RANSON
Commanding,GSR-0201
