Cadets John Rivers and Alisa Rene are promoted to the rank of Ensign. Authorization for the Guardian or Avenger of your choice, as well as any other appropriate snub class, is given. Well done.
Lieutenant Marisa Marshall, your quick thinking and consistent demonstration of leadership ability has warranted your rise to the Mid Command. We look forward to seeing you continue to do so well at your new position, Lieutenant Commander.
Ensign Zeeroi Takann, we are impressed with your attentiveness to directions and positive attitude. Keep going and your promotion to Lieutenant will only be the next step of many.
Similar to another member of this truly patriotic family, Ensign Malachy Marshall is awarded the rank of Lieutenant.
Last one for today - Ensign Courtney Vargas is also granted the pay raise to Lieutenant. I'm sure the Fleet Admiral is proud to see you've been doing so well.
Keep in mind the new ship or weapons allowances for your ranks, ladies and gentlemen. I hear that Quartermaster Polstari has managed to get through enough paperwork to see a small spot of floor in his office - you'd best cover that up before he gets any ideas.

As of the seventh of this month, Fleet Admiral Roy Sanders had stepped down from his position in the Admiralty. He will remain on until the end of July as a Captain in his old role, Fighter Wing Instructor.
Admiral Alan Polstari has also relinquished the responsibilities of his old role, and is now retired.
Additionally, Vice Admiral Nicole Hayes chose to step aside, citing health concerns and a wish to move on with her life in a different direction.
Another - and fortunately the last - of our senior staff to leave is Captain Kohaku Ueda. Although recently returned from an undercover operation, she feels that she is more suited a Naval desk job aboard Washington Shipyard and as such has transferred there.
And now onto some good news; Captain Remus Sius, due to your superior diligence and good service as the Capital Warships Coordinator, you are promoted to Admiral. It has been an honor to serve with you thus far.
I, Vice Admiral Rohj Teerin, have been entrusted the position of Fleet Admiral by Sanders and the Secretary of State.
Commander James Lambert, although your record has several extended ... absences on it, I have seen fit to issue you the rank of Captain. Given dedication, I'm sure you'll do well.
Lieutenant Commander Marisa Marshall has also received a promotion, to Commander. Marshall, you will serve under Lambert as the Special Forces Lead. Take your time settling in; things will work out fine.
Finally tonight, Cadet John Graham has been granted the pay grade of Ensign. You have done really well so far, so keep it up.
With the retirement of Polstari, please visit my office for now should you have any requisitions to make. You have all done well, and I look forward to serving you all as best I can.

Recruit Nick Kaney, you have successfully completed the 8-hour probationary period. You may now acquire a Guardian or Avenger-class fighters. Please do not spare yourself from acquiring an Upholder bomber, you'll be amazed at the number of hostile capital ships you may encounter.

In recognition of maintained superb service, Lieutenant John Graham is now conferred the rank of Lieutenant Commander. You kind of remind me about an old friend I served with.
