Welcome to the USS Tomcat NCC 62114 Akira Class Sub-type
We died like Rifles with our Faces to the Fire
SEE SITE WIKI FOR AWARDS
The origins of the 95th Rifles Regiment was the 1800s AD before the Napoleonic Wars of that time, they were the first Regiment to sport Green Uniforms and thus became known as the Green Jackets. Back then they used the Baker Rifle and as time went on they were merged with other regiments the name 95th was all but relegated to the history books and their Regimental Colours and standards were cased the 95th Rifles were also the only known 19th Century British Regiment to use the White Cord rating. Around 2388 a then Commander had an idea, shortly after she transferred to SFMC and upon making Colonel she re-christened the 95th Rifle Regiment, while currently not as big as its forebearer the revitalized 95th is building to Regimental level, currently, they are known just as the 95th Rifles, all the marines on the USS Tomcat are 95th Rifles, but as they are Captain Somers project they will leave the ship when she does.
The USS Tomcat is an Akira Class ship, with a slight difference, while its armaments and defences remain standard to some extent its evacuation capacity has been lowered to account for the extra fighter squadrons and Marines. The ship is commanded by an EX-Marine former Colonel turned Fleet Officer Fleet Captain Jasmine Somers, her missions are different from other standard missions due to the load-out and set-up of her crew and equipment.
So come join the Tomcat Crew as they head out to the less explored regions of Federation Space in an attempt to stop the Hostile and Rogue Intelligence Agencies and other undesirables on the fringes of known space.
THE ADVENTURE CONTINUES..........

Greetings
Over the 15 years, the Tomcat has been in operation, I have had the minimum amount to be classed as Operational, but that was back in the days when the Tomcat sim was an Independent one, and I had a huge turnover in personnel, some wanted to see what it was like others for different reasons, but they never stayed that long and over time as I gained more players I instigated the "Orientation Posts" this allowed me to assess the new player and for them to assess the sim, this came about as I had a lot of players leave during the middle of a mission.
The Orientation Post if it took place in the middle of a mission then did not hinder the main mission would not be so bad if those joining had left during the middle of Orientation as these posts do not have anything to do with any mission that may be ongoing thus no disruption to the mission, so in my many years of Command, I am always happy to make announcements such as these, for they signify the achievements of those mentioned...
So without further Ado, I am proud to announce that the following names have completed their 6-month Tour of Duty as Nuggets:
Lieutenant Junior Grade Thex sh'Zoarhi ----------------- Deputy Chief Engineering Officer
Lieutenant Junior Grade Shoniara T’ghann Dex --------- Deputy Chief Medical Officer
Lieutenant Jg Margurite "Maggie" Febre ----------------- Chief Auxillary Pilot
Ensign Liam Bäckström -------------------------------- Deputy Chief Intelligence Officer
Ensign Drevas ----------------------------------------- Security/Tactical Officer
Master Chief Petty Officer Alexi Michelle ----------------- Security Investigations Officer
Congratulations to all those named, your bios will son have the 6 Month ToD Award up, if it has not already been done.
