Thank you to the Squadron Leaders for putting last weekend's exercise together. I can only speak for myself, but getting tossed into the deep end like that was both terrifying and exhilarating. I ain't ever been that close to a volcano before, and seeing one up close and personal was ~~super cool~~ thrilling. So glad y'all are the type of leaders wiling to give us challenges that makes us better pilots instead of just busier ones.

[...] And congratulations to Strike Group Alpha as well. You all managed to hold together under real pressure. That says a lot about the team~~, regardless of who happened to be in the lead~~ ~~despite A~~. Well flown. :)

SQUADRON LEADERS.

I totally understand the rationale behind putting the newest recruits in the squad leader seats, and I think it was a real good exercise for Sloane to show what she can do. Apollo [...] was also there, doing his thing! I did want to ask, though. If we run something like this again, would there be an opportunity for me to prove my mettle as a leader as well? If not, that's alright. I trust your judgment on these things!

FRIENDS OF FOX. [ if it feels right to you, go for it! ]

Some of y'all might've noticed we've got a new face on the Mnemo! Bear Bradshaw. Seeing as most of you can put two and two together, it probably won't come as much of a surprise when I say he's my brother. I'm just as surprised as the rest of you!!! I thought he was still veiled back on the AC compound, but here we are!

He doesn't remember me, which is so~~ooo~~ okay. Really. I'm sure everything will work out just great in the end. But if you've been thinking, hey, that guy kinda looks like Fox if he were super jacked and didn't have a mustache — now you know! Ha ha.

i already got to use 3 volcano threats today

You did very well too and you should be proud of yourself

I’ll keep the request in mind, Fox.

That's huge

Nice flying, NorCal.

he is pretty jacked.

Yes.

this feels super forced my dude, but if you're good blink twice.

What kinds of threats?

Thanks! Bravo was a great team.

Well. We did call this.

You did real good, Foxy! I'm sure you'll get us next time.

Mav, be nice.

Do you need anything, Fox? It has to be all kinds of weird.

You should have received the memo already, but I’m heading down with the Aldanas for a few days as security support. Az, I know nothing but glory can restore your crown, but take care of One.

Oh my god, that's insane! He does have nice arms but I remember thinking he lacks a certain distinguished gentleman quality and now it's all clicking into place.

Are you sure you're actually good though?

Okay, sounds good. If there's anything I can do on my end — steps I can take, initiative I can show — to prove I'm ready, I'm more than happy to put the work in. I really do appreciate the guidance and the time y'all take to steer us right. Just say the word.
