I have not as of yet received any reports from Tavillion or my direct subordinates, but seeing as its now Friday morning, I don't expect them yet.

On a slightly off topic note, id like to validate you all for doing a very good service the SR has needed for a while.

Arturus and Fox, thank you for instituting a policy to determine activity and contributions to the SR, we needed one badly.

Winter, keep up the work with the league drops. ill be getting in the mercs ladder soon, but ill have to create a new name. old one wont work for odd reasons, so ferget it, lol

SPM SIT-REP:  02.14.03
From: scott kapperman [mailto: kap3063@hotmail.com ]

Salute Sir,

Monkey, here is the report for this week. I was unable to contact badger garner, but I had contact with Reddog and Cral. I hosted a Militia practice Monday night with Reddog and myself, we were joined by Hicks, Gallows and Orion if my memory serves me right. Both I and Reddog will be participating in the Skye Tournament Saturday and I hope to see you there.

Neither Cral or Badger have Mercs so doing lance practices is a little out of the question, but I have been able to work with Reddog, Hicks, Jad, Orion, and Gallows calling out targets on the rw. Reddog is turning out to be a excellent wingman. He and I have faced some of the finest Rangers and outsiders and still made a good showing for our unit. Other than that SNAFU
Situation Normal All F'd

Firewalker Promoted to Sergeant at Arms (SaA)
From: fox@tcm-services.net

SALUTE

I have made the decision on the Sergeant at Arms position. It was a difficult selection process that was narrowed down to Firewalker and Jadua. Both of them show qualities essential to the training process, so the decision was further complicated. In the end I chose Firewalker because of his superior experience with league drops and specialized tactics training. He will continue in the position until he can no longer do so, or no longer wants the position. In such an instance I will recommend Jadua for immediate elevation to the position of Sergeant at Arms.

Ladies and Gentlemen, the Skye Rangers has always prided ourselves as being a very active and distinguished Elite group. To see these standards slack off for no apparent reason is not acceptable and frankly disturbing. This it not to say that you are not allowed to have fun, quite the contrary, we only ask that you carry out your basic duties and requirements so that the Skye Rangers can continue to function as it has in the past. Taking five to ten minutes a week (if that) to send in your status report to your Commanding Officer and informing them what you have accomplished in the past week is not asking much, and quite truthfully it is the only thing that the Skye Rangers demand of your membership.
