SA New Year Meeting - Jan 2013

SA Commanding Officer, Fleet-Admiral Martind Forlon: "Lady and gentlemans, just passed year was for Silver Arrows like boat on very rough sea. We had very good start with new members and activity. After this was for various personal and also due clan philosophy change (usage more CF RP for our base operations) clan structure heavily damaged and was needed alot time and work to reverse our course from way down back to way up. Let now please speak our Clan leader and founder Fleet-Admiral Sam Thomas.

Fleet-Admiral Sam Thomas: "As you all know from what I told you after my return, my duties and other interests (RL) left me for many months with no time to be here. With my return I decided to leave the Chief Officer title to my deputy: Fleet-Admiral Martind Forlon! He had been Deputy for far too long, and earned the right to use the big chair! To help with clan duties, I will take on the position of Deputy CO for now and I believe that the New Year 3013 will show us if there is someone whose activity allows him/her to reach this clan position."

Fleet-Admiral Martind Forlon continue: "Thank you Sam, I know this sounds civil and not as should be in military organization, but I learned alot from you and your work is still around us and will be for a long time. So I will use a bit privileges, which offers my new position, and will be less formal to you . I will do my best to help our clan to be well organized, active and known in Crossfire space!

For now I have prepared few special rewards and bonuses for our members which helped alot with clan duties in past year ...

First which I have in mind is lady Captain Raiden Caprica. She helped alot with different clan tasks and also in times when I had big doubts how to continue. Thank to her help are changes in our clan books done with correct grammar (and not with my own ). She helped alot also with new Achievement medals which offer SAC more precisely reward our active members. I as acting CO decided to nominate her for a rank Rear-Admiral! She have now authorization begin preparations for Commanding Trial 2 in the same moment when she will return to active duty. I do not have doubts that she is able to pass this trial (as was confirmed many times before in Inner Core Expeditions), but I believe that she will like much more a challenge do this mission/trial before she will join Silver Arrows Admiral's group. Next to that is she rewarded with Medal of Defense Excellency, with which want SAC evaluate hers work on clan principles and reputation.


Second one is Lt. Eugene N. Bennett. His big activity in space and helping others was extraordinary and I believe Dooms leaders knows him very well from countless reports how big damage was this one human able did to them   . Next to that he helped also with SAC personal missions to Russian pilots and mainly he prepared Official documentation (Russian server rules translation with all actual changes) which was job done far away behind normal duty. For this all he will receive Distinguished Action Medal and as bonus also +20 community points. Congratulations!


Next member which deserve attention is Lt.-Cmdr. Glen Morangie. His hard work and professionalism while he perform his duties in space (I heard very good references from known pilots!) helped significantly raise our prestige and this is for mercenary organization on Crossfire one from most priced values! He also have one from biggest personal fleets under his command which is really admirable counting how "long" he is in our clan ( ... SAC knowledge about Lt.Cmdr fleet ofc do not rely on his shift board entry which is nicely to said obsolete ...one can say historical?   Next to that he helped with many tasks which allows us significantly raise our tactical and commercial possibilities! For all this mentioned he will receive Medal of Honor which is very hard to get, but in this case very well deserved!

And here is one more thing. Lt.-Cmdr. Glen Morangie was as second active SA member able to fulfill requirements for achieving Exploration medal and for me is personal pleasure to use this occasion to give him this award! Exploration is part of our clan motto and for me personally is this medal one from most valued. Really very good work!  


Now we heave here Lt.-Cmdr. David Hayter. If I should say who did in past year the biggest change in his behavior and povs on clan (not only) activities, then I will be talking about him. For his work for clan and community and skills showed in space he will receive Medal of Defense Excellency and extra +20 community points. Congratulations! Please keep up your good work!


This meeting is almost on its end, but I still have something in my pockets. Lt.-Cmdr. Hanzo Hasashi please stand up! You took from us long vacation but with your return came very big activity on clan level (and it looks also your a bit bigger patience ... hope I do not repeat this too often? ). Also your activity in space is exemplary and your fighting skills are excellent. I as acting CO therefore decided, that your rank should be higher and you are extraordinary promoted to rank Commander! However you still will need in meantime to pass Commanding Trial 1 to be able take next Trial needed to obtain higher rank. With this have for you SAC also one personal assignment which goals are not exactly given. You as Commander now have full access for Lt.-Cmdr Academy level and therefore you can work on adding there new missions and PvP training documentation. Is also needed organize training sessions in space and help other clan members so they can raise their combat skills. Decision if you want accept this assignment and how you will want do it if you accept is fully in your hands.


This is all for now lady and gentlemans, I wish us all very good year 3013, alot action (and fun) in space and for everyone here success in all activities and objectives which will be started or be given to you.




p.s.: siggies and other updates will be done in few days.
