Petr Margul
General, Former Crusader Fleet CO.
Petr Margul, or PMargul, or PM for short, was the last commanding officer of Crusader Fleet. Like his predecessors, he began his RS career in Crusader Fleet because he played X-Wing on a Mac. He slowly rose up the ranks in Crusader, becoming XO of the fleet while Dave Trebonious-Astoris was CO. When the latter stepped down, PM became CO. He served as Crusader Fleet CO roughly between the end of 1997 and early 1998. He was required to face the reality of the times, however, and to recognize that Crusader was not in top shape. Mac players of X-Wing were a rarity and the fleet was fast losing membership. He came to the uncomfortable decision that Crusader Fleet should merge with the PBF. Crusader became a wing inside the PBF and its days as an independent fleet were numbered.
PM continued to remain active off and on in the RS after this event. He flew in Grey Squadron's Tour 5 between 2000 and 2002, and also flew extensively in the RgF. He was also known to appear in SWG from time to time with the RSPA. At the moment he is inactive and on reserve status.
