Edict #57
“If I had told Mother I think you are handsome, she certainly would have had you locked in a cell”
With the furore surrounding my last batch of promotions, I decided to leave the last one a little while to allow things to settle down.
The recipient of the final promotion for this term holds a position that is very close to my heart. In 2005 when I was first promoted to Captain, the Draco in Fleet
5 was a mess. Over time, with the remaining core of players we managed to turn the ship around and when I resigned as her CO she was in good shape. Since then she
has seen two further CO’s and has gone from strength to strength.
In October 2007 she received a new CO who took what I and our own Tribble had done and enhanced it. Since then, Draco has been a model ship, consistently providing a
happy, healthy and active roleplaying environment that no FComm has had to worry about. This is a rare thing in our club and, whilst it has certainly improved in the
past term, the few ships like Draco which have led the way are worthy of recognition, particularly those who are the driving force behind that consistent strength.
In recognition of his excellent work as Commanding Officer of the USS Draco, I hereby promote Gene Gibbs to the rank of Fleet Captain, with all the rights and
priveleges therein.
Congratulations Wookie, may you keep showing us the way for many years to come.
