I. News
-----------------------------

1) The XWA Week of War at Battlestats.com is starting up tomorrow, October 25th. It's encouraged that to all members interested to participate, though is not required. Participating in this event can earn you RS merits, awards, not to mention gaining Multiplayer experience in XWA. Other information about this can be located in this News Letter below in the section entitled "XWA WoW". I urge many pilots to play in this competition, and if not fly, at least go there and recruit people to the IBG.

2) I will be extending the deadline on the current IBG/R2F mission to November 30th. This is to give me a little time to organize things. Trust me, it's to everyone's benefit. I repeat, NOVEMBER 30TH.

3) A CO for the Domination League is needed after Wes's disappearance. Applications are to be sent to the whole Fleet CS, that is vender@hotpop.com, varmer@gmx.net and jon@skavanger.freeserve.co.uk. Remember to include your curriculum and experience in the RS, any interesting skills and the usual stuff.

4) Draco Squadron has no CO or XO, Draco Squadron has been contacted on the matter. Suitable candidates are being searched for within the squadron until we start looking outside of it first.

That's all for today, until next time. I'm gradually going to get comfortable with commanding IBG, so just a little bit of patience is asked for.
