Your exceptional performance during the un-mounting procedure of three KSD-C9822 "Insurgent" Coalition Very Heavy Fighters which was accomplished under twenty-four hours and your valiant efforts during Phase I of Operation Red Riot has earned you the respect and trust of the Rebellion Command.
I understand your personal disappointment of losing two of our escort-pilots but this is the reality we all have to face, not one that should be put solely on your shoulders. Your actions are more than noteworthy and despite your possible objections I feel that in the end the reward was greater than the cost.
It is my honour to hereby promote you to the rank of [color=#66BBEE]Major.
With this new rank we expect you to have a much more improved tactical overview during the battle-field and radiate a strong charisma that will ensure to bring out the best performance of our soldiers when put under your command. I'm confident that you will only improve from this point onward.
