It is with heavy heart that I report the loss of our comrade, Dr. Ichabod Tickles.
He was slain in an encounter with the BPA, where he was set upon by two officers and eventually a cruiser, but undoubtedly it was his poor jousting skills and wayward piloting that did him in.
He had been depressed lately anyway, perhaps this was his way of making his exit. We shall never know.
While it is true that his craft was destroyed in the encounter with the BPA, it was a subsequent malfunction in his escape pod that did him in. Every pilot should do a safety check of their equipment immediately, because-- to be honest-- some of this refurbished stuff we use is sub-standard. I wouldn't want any other promising doctors going the way of Dr.Tickles.
Ichabod, you will be missed!
He will be replaced by a promising young cadet, Dr.Zhivago, who will be promoted just as soon as he finishes his Flight Surgeon training.
Thank you for your time, my Good Doctors. And remember, "Someone who can't sacrifice anything can never change anything."
