Staff Changes:

:::::FROM: General Gavin C. Kravis, Outgoing UGCO:::::
Fellow Pilots and Instructors of the Rebel Squadrons' Academy,
       Today is a rather sad day for me. As of Sunday, November 10th I will no longer remain as the RS UnderGrad CO. I have been on the RS UnderGrad Command Staff for over two years now, and have been CO for roughly one and a half years. This has been my home for a long time. I joined the XvTUG nearly four years ago under then XvTUG CO Captain Jack Stewrt. Over the years I've seen a number of COs come and go and alot of changes in this system, mostly for the best. I've tried to do my very best in furthering that ideals of the RS through it's UnderGraduate system and hope I have not failed you. At this time I would like to officially turn over command of the RS UnderGrad to MGN Spokes, with CMDR Earthkeeper as XO. Stallion is going to work you boys hard, but I think you have what it takes. Good luck to you all and may the Force be with you.
