Operations Manual

Bylaws

The Rebel Squadrons Bylaws is a document that outlines the procedures and guidelines of the RS as established by RS High Command. All Rebel Squadrons members should take the time to read over the Bylaws.

The Concept of HIER

The acronym HIER, which stands for Honesty, Integrity, Equanimity and Respect, is a principle that every RS member must strive to make the model of their participation. This principle can basically be described as an everyday golden rule: to treat people with respect and to remain honest and fair.
