Edict #16 - Stardate 10052.3
“Believe me, your memory will carry on, we’ll carry on.”
It is extremely hard to find a fitting tribute to someone who so impacted this club as Brian Olinski did. After much discussion, it became clear that there were a lot of things that we could do to honor Brian’s memory, but in the end, the most fitting tribute would be to name a ship after him.
Though he spent a lot of time in the Academy with Cadets, it would be hard for one to argue that Fleet Five was not Brian’s home. The ship now known as the USS Entente was formerly the USS Kansas, and Brian’s first command. His first government position was as FComm 5. With this in mind, Sidney, Geoff, and Nick developed a plan to pay tribute to Brian in the most fitting way possible.
Under the recommendations of the Fleet Commander and Commanding Officer, the USS Entente is hereby recommissioned as the USS Brian A. Olinski NCC-92340, Olinski class.
This change is effective as soon as possible IC, and the internet department is directed to make this change OOC within 7 days.
I would like to specifically thank Sidney Parker and Nicholas Villarreal for believing in this and making it happen. Both of you deserve congratulations and thanks!
Jen (President)
