Fleet Commander; Fleet Admiral.
Dave is the current FC of the RS and was appointed on October 22nd, 2006.
Fictional character history
Dave entered the Imperial Navy as a Tie Fighter pilot shortly before Palpatine's rise to power (ca. 25 BBY). His service in the Imperial Navy was of long tenure, and saw him move from starfighters to capital ships. He commanded the VSD-II Peril under Grand Admiral Thrawn, operating in the Unknown Regions for several years, until being given a mission so chilling that he renounced Imperial service forever and defected, taking his ship and crew with him (ca. 2 ABY). In service to the Rebel Alliance, he was given command of smaller vessels, until the dire need of well-captained ships for the Battle of Endor pushed him into command of a Nebulon B. Frigate (4 ABY). After the Battle of Endor he was given a commission with the newly formed Rebel Squadrons Battlegroup, which was designed by Admiral Ackbar to operate independently in the region of the Minos Cluster and Cadrel Expanse.
His service within the Rebel Squadrons has continued throughout the rest of his active life. He was placed in command of Crusader Fleet, making his flagship the CRS McGrath (ca. 6-10 ABY). He later commanded Redemption Fleet, with his flagship none other than his previous ship in Imperial service, the Peril (ca. 12-16 ABY and 20-24 ABY). At one point he was elevated to the position of Fleet Commander of the entire Rebel Squadrons, where he served aboard the flagship Rebel Spirit (ca. 16-20 ABY). In 24 ABY, Dave was in his early seventies and had completed nearly 50 years of military service. Unwilling to retire, he decided that although he would step back from leadership in the Rebel Squadrons, he would continue to serve where the New Republic and Rebel Squadrons could make use of him. After brief consultation, he was put in command of a special task force, designed to explore the limits of known space around the Cadrel Expanse and approaching the Unknown Regions, and to probe the limits of the power of the Imperial splinter group Star Vipers. At the point of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion, then, Dave was in command of a small task force consisting of the VSD-II Peril and two Carrack-class cruisers.
Non-fictional RS service
In the RS, Dave has held many positions. He joined in June of 1996, making him among the oldest active members of the club. Originally, as most RS members of the time were, he was known by AOL screenames, his first being RaptorFun and second ReblRaptor. His first squadron was Delta Squadron, where he flew the Mac edition of X-Wing. He worked his way up the ranks until he became Crusader Fleet CO during early 1997. He served as RS Medals Officer in late 1997/early 1998. From June 1998-July 2000 he was Redemption Fleet CO, where he was tirelessly active in seeking out new divisions for the RS and pushing older divisions to Fleet status. It was during this time period that Dave was promoted to the rank of Fleet Admiral. Not content with this service, he aimed at serving the RS as a whole.
From August of 2000 to September of 2001, Dave served as Fleet Commander, presiding over several projects, including the creation of the first roster database and the transformation of the RS domain as well as the extremely successful First Outer Rim War. In June 2002, Dave returned to High Command by once again becoming Redemption Fleet CO, remaining there until September 2003. Between September 2003 and January 2006, Dave played Star Wars Galaxies, but remained a member of Redemption Fleet and served as Vice-Minister of Justice. In June 2006, Dave accepted additional positions in Aurora Force and the Patriot Battle Fleet. He was also appointed to High Command as an Alderman. In October 2006, Dave was elected RS FC. In the same month he stepped down from his position in the Council of Justice. He currently serves as the FC, flies for Green Squadron in the PBF, and writes in the AF-Kids storyline.
