Crisis Averted!
All I can say is "Wow!"
I know, I know. I'm a terrible liar. I have a lot more to say. When I relaunched the Black Hawk two years ago, I hoped that this sim would be one of the best out there in the interwebs. Today, I can say…

A Minor Change of Plans
Last week, I was notified that the Commanding Officer of Task Force 93 had submitted his resignation. Within a few days, the BFA elected to fill the vacancy by doing a shuffle of sorts between two different Task Forces. As a result, I am no longer the Executive Officer for…

Several Items...
Hi all, just have a couple things to report:
First, this one took me by surprise, and it's more of a fun fact than anything. Bravo Fleet has a central wiki, or 'infobase' as they've named it, that players young and old, past and present can contribute to. I have…

Wow!
Six months ago, I received Bravo Fleet's approval to begin recruitment for the USS Black Hawk under their banner. Within a couple hours (completely shocking me in the process), I'd received my first application from the player who is now being Lt. JG Noxa. From there, an incredible journey began.…
