How are the Muslims faring in the month of Ramadan? Chin up, soldiers. This is likely to be one of the few times in a year when you get to toughen up. ;)

"Musings of a Guylian-Eating Officer" is suspended indefinitely because Peregrine is having computer problems (read: her comp is totally fried). This edition may be a little sparse in some sections, but I promise you that the others make up for this. We have included some interesting news on the Firebirds, Asian Aiwing, and the cast of Space: Above and Beyond.

An epic draws to a close as we present to you the final part of Kingfisher's "Operation White Wing - Fight for Hill 375". I'd like to remind the newsletter list that any submissions to the newsletter are very much welcome. "Semarak Api" was intended to be a two-way communication between the newspaper and mailing list, so without your participation we can't make that happen.

As always, enjoy! See you in a fortnight.


Servabo fidem,
Captain Yasmin "Garuda" M.
88th Firebirds Squadron

The newsletter will be posted every fortnight (hopefully). For suggestions and contributions to both the newsletter and mailing list e-mail Garuda. I will forward any message intended for the whole squadron to the mailing list. If you want your message to be seen by the whole squadron, state it clearly and I will put it up on the Bulletin Board column as well. I am also responsible for Communications, so e-mail me if you have any other problems, except those concerning your membership in the 88th, as that falls under Peregrine's wing.
