Q. What is a star captain?

Q. What does a star captain look like?

Gip "Peppy" O'Reilly, of course prefers the Flexmatic Pulse Rifle. A true star captain feels comfortable with a whole range of weapons, from Taihatsu Heavy Industries Reapers to Fleet Standard Issue PP7000s.
Q. Wow, star captains are really great! Will you tell me all about them?
A. You bet! You can subscribe to the official Star Captains Club of America RSS feed. Every so often, we will
update it with the latest breaking news about our heroes in the sky.
The Intergalactic News Service just received a report stating that today, Star Captain Dirk "Trout" O'Mally, veteran of the Battle of Ravin IX, fought bravely to defend the last outpost on Tragon IV! He will receive the Orange Star Award for his selfless act of heroism. During the ordeal, O'Mally was reported to have used his Taihatsu Heavy Industries Pulse Rifle with deadly effectiveness. Known to the crew of his Planetary Assault Destroyer simply as "Trout," O'Mally is a humble yet intense star captain. His life-long friend and navigator, Trevor "Legs" McLeod, says this about him: "Trout can do it all. One minute he's fixing a ionic discharge router, the next he's off fighting Kharaa Cave Dogs with his GE PP7000. He's really an impressive man, and we're glad that he's at the helm of the F.C.S. Death's Head." The Galactic Queen will be presenting the award at a formal ceremony next month.
