Sorry, I forgot to update that link when I re-did the pages. The link has now been fixed, and you should be able to access the materials. Sorry about that, and thanks for letting me know about the problem!

Hah! Someone finally interestested in the course... I can't wait to see how you do.

Of course I'm interested. And I'm sure more will be.

Actually , I think that the Academy is on the Right Track. Thanks to some very dedicated officers.

Your opening new doors and people are curious by nature. So if I may.

I'm suggesting that some courses be added as ''requirements'' to have promotions. For exemple : Admin1 should be a requirement to become a 2LT , for at least two reasons.

- Obviously, to know how it function

and

- To show true dedication and constant amelioration of one officer.

Generally the Leadership-type exams are required for any real postion, or at least you start getting poked if you haven't.

An officer really shouldn't be promoted, ever, if they don't have the required leadership course (ie, Squad leadership for LT+, etc).

So take your exams and eat your peas, children.

I take it back, an officer can *not* be promoted without the proper exams in order. I want to say that is a dictate of the manual. Either way, it's true.

Well, I've got the exams in order and I've eaten my peas. So, can I get promoted now?

Yo, Commander Muscat, customer!

I still think that the Orbiter part should be taken from the course. It's like creating an XWA theory course and then ask to fly the game.
