Okay, 2 things for the start.

Yes, I handed Paladin over to Battlefront, I did this to keep transfers simple. Dont worry, I have a name picked out for the new Platoon when the time comes.

As for the Knight Platoon, you\'ll note that indeed, there is a new squad, please send in the applications to myself, Corran, Alex, Dav, and Ric, the Fleet CS will pick the Squad CO, then Dav and Ric will pick the SO. I have a reason for this... Also, DF Reviewers, you should have a review out right now, you\'ll soon be getting review levels with everyone else. As for the Knight Platoon SO, Its also up for grabs, but for now, I want people who have command expierence within the RS to apply. If noone does that suites the standards we need, then Ill open it up. I apoligize for the appearence of micro managing, however, its my duty to get a stable CS in place, then the current CS will take these jobs over.

Now, I handed out several promotions. This means we should all be nice and drunk from those guys buying us the free liqour right? lol.

Now then, here is how the Battlefront Platoon is currently set up. Zeke Freeman is the CO, he will head all of battlefront even if I have to add a second wing, he\'ll be in charge of that as well, as a division leader, while the wing XO\'s assist him with more wing specific tasks. Currently he has but one wing. This will work with all divisions, Alex will head the RC and Writing division. Dav will head the JK series division. I have this for a reason, to simplify communications within each group. Now that I have explained that, I chose Talon as the XO, both were recommended as CO\'s by different people, and it was a close toss up, however, I saw that Zeke had a bit more expierence and has always been quite eager to help. Alexander is the SO, I chose him because he was also spoken highly of, and was actually one of two people left, and the only one mentioned to me. One of our own also plays BF, and I chose him to be an XO of one of the Squads instead of waiting around for others to show up, conngradulations. I believe this set of CS is going to be effecient in their duties, if not, Ill fire them :-).

Come on people, its a joke.

Okay, now then, to tell you what the CS is doing. To explain how CS now operates...each Division or platoon leader is on the list, along with their XO. This mimics the RS HC. Only with wing leaders within the fleet. This is to keep all the CS in the loop. Platoon/Wing leaders and division leaders later on will all be voting members, with the Fleet CO, XO, and SO also voting (No Alex, this dosnt mean you get a double vote). That currently gives us 5 voting members, though I have the right to veto the vote just like the President. I set it up as a mixture of the RS HC and the US Government system. This is to help the leaders in the fleet keep me on the right track, keep us all communicating, and hopefully, keep everything running smoothly and efficiently. I am also doing this to jumpstart the return of power to the proper people, I believe we are in better shape for this.

This is a note to cadets who may be wondering why you didn\'t get your promotion. You probably need to get on your profile and fix your primary fleet, once that is fixed, and if the RSCD is your primary fleet, you will be promoted. I checked again just a few minutes ago, and some of you who thought they changed theirs didnt, dont forget to click save, or make sure your logged in properly.

I think that covers it all for now.
