One hell of a week for a plebe

Pilot's log: June 7, 3306Location: Junior Pilot's quarters, Headquarters
I can't believe it's only been seven days, just seven days since I joined up with these magnificent warriors of humanity. The things I've seen and things that I've accomplished, I could only had imagined.
Right now I'm soooo freaking tired. I just pulled an insane combat rotation, trying to crush my learning curve. Repetition, repetition, repetition is what my mom's used to say.
At roll call it seems that the Pilot's Federation has taken notice of some of my accomplishments and have awarded me the rank of elite in the combat discipline and with that I've been also awarded Triple Elite status. For me it's a dream come true at long last, but to my wing mates, it's just drop in the ocean; all these guys are hardened and highly decorated.
With my 1010 thargoid scout kills and 1, scratch that, now 2 Cyclops kills, I've been awarded the Thargoid Hunter level 1 badge. It's now official, I'm a thargoid hunter now. I have a long, long ways too go. I have to always remember, it's not about the glory nor the fame. It's about keeping humanity safe from this ever present menace.
Wow, this was only the first week, what will next week bring?
