Edict #16
“Only now change blows on the winds of time. Change. This time there is no drifting back.”
I write this edict with a sincere sense of sadness. I never enjoy having to replace officers, particularly when they have previously demonstrated an outstanding skill for leadership.
Wail Qasim has been under some severe RL stress recently and I’ve granted him as much leeway as I can, but after four weeks without his influence, the Lexington is beginning to suffer and, per the conditions laid out in MOO (Member Order and Organisation), with no clear return date and no response to emails sent by this office and the Fleet Two Commander, Wail Qasim is hereby relieved of his command. Provisions for recruiting a new Commanding Officer for the Lexington will be laid out further by the Fleet Two Commander in the Personnel Department. Until such time as a new Commanding Officer is chosen, the Fleet Two Commander has appointed the Lexington’s XO, Samuel Bibb to the position of acting CO.
Further to this and under the same aegis, Wail Qasim is relieved from his position as Engineering Director. With the Assistant Engineering Director AWOL, with no sign of return, I shall be acting Engineering Director until such time as a new Engineering Director is appointed.
Wail is sincerely thanked for everything he has done and it should be understood that this should in no way reflect badly on either his character or career. Each of us, in our own time gets overwhelmed by RL and I know he would understand that the needs of the Lexington’s crew must be considered first and foremost.
