Unregistered	"Affirmative Denon Control. Landing coordinates confirmed and locked in. Red One out." General Wedge Antilles toggled off the X-wing's comm unit. He grinned behind his headgear as he lined up on approach to the Denon starfighterbase. It was always great to be behind the controls of a starfighter. With the end of the war with the Yuuzhan Vong, there was a surplus of line officers in Galactic Alliance Fleet Command, but with the high attrition rate of pilot, commanding officers in Starfighter Command were at a premium. When the chance to lead a starfighter unit became available again, Wedge jumped at the chance. It was only a short term assignment, until the last threads of the war had been wrapped up, but the general didn't mind. At last he back in the cockpit. As he pulled in for his final approach, he cycled the snubfighter's landing gear. He could see the landing platform directly ahead. "Gate, as soon as we touch down, go ahead and start the post flight check. I've to go get a few things settled so I'll check back with you and the mechanics later." Wedge glanced at the display screen for the R5's affirmative. He was being given command of the squadrons stationed on Denon currently, including the Rogues, Wraiths and the Yellow Aces. More importantly, no one knew he was coming. "The look on Wes and Hobbie's face will be priceless," he thought to himself as the X-wing touched down on the platform.

Unregistered	The General raised the cockpit canopy and pulled off his helmet. Pulling off his flight gloves and place them and his helmet in the seat, he stood and waited for one of the technicians to bring a ladder over to his snubfighter. In years past, he might've just vaulted over the side without waiting for the ladder. But that was before he became too... "No, I'm not gonna think it. I'm not." he chided himself. When he climbed down from the cockpit, he made his way under the X-wing's nose to the small cargo compartment. He grabbed his small pilot's duffle back and closed up the compartment. One thing that had never changed was that he'd always packed like a pilot. A change of clothes, maybe a few miscellaneous items in the bag, but with everything of value stuffed in one of his many pockets of his flightsuit. Wedge strode across the landing platform toward the entrance to the command building, duffle bag hung across one shoulder. As he was approaching the hatchway, a young Lieutenant had just exited the building. "Excuse me, lieutenant." Wedge watched as the lieutenant snapped to attention and waited for him to finish his salute before saluting in return. "At ease, son. I'm looking for Colonel's Janson and Klivian. Do you know where I might find them?" The lieutenant informed the general of their probable whereabouts, and after listening to his directions, Wedge thanked the young officer and set off find to the colonels in question. Wedge couldn't stifle his smile.
