third years of war and loss of comrades.

Saturday 28 October 28 years after Twilight sparkles coronation.

Once again I had to confirm that the war takes its toll. Today, Spitfire has dropped a collision with a comrade.

In a dogfight, Speedstar had to force an enemy aircraft avoid and collided with her.He himself survived the collision, but Spitfire's plane went up in flames as it hit the ground. A bitter end to the best leader and aviator we have ever had and yet an end that could have hit all of us. None of the losses passed without a trace. Especially Speedstar had hit hard because he was the responsible and had survived himself.

After our fight, we had recovered the excess of her and her plane and told the High Command. Then we drink to her and then went to sleep in silence. The least that pony deserves is an honorary funeral and a medal for her leaders.

Hopefully, the High Command sees the same thing.

Thursday 16 November 28 years after Twilight sparkles coronation.

Two days after the Spitfire had fallen we were accused of Soarin. He was really struggling though, he could not replace Spitfire and did not even have their experiences.

But now that we had gained a lot of combat experience, we did not have to rely on his leadership anymore.

We were able to record successes anyway.
Last week, I received after over a year against fieldpost from my friends.

Bigfire is still battling the Yaks in the north and serving on a defensive position there.
There he had the opportunity in recent months to let out his displeasure at the yaks. He seems to feel comfortable doing so. Of his commanding general he spoke only in the highest tones. Which probably has something to do with the Order's iron crown of third grade.

The related survey in the knighthood was not practiced 28 years ago. But still, he is now addressed by his comrades as the Bigfire of the Crystal Kingdom.

Broken Iron was promoted shortly after his last letter. He now fights with his unit in Saddle Arabia, where he seems to be just before their capital.

Here on the Griffin front, the entrance of North Saddle Arabia on our and the entry south Saddle Arabia on the Hostile side had received little attention. But there are important events in the course of the war can decisively influence.

Of course, it goes without saying that Broken iron was awarded the Golden Cross of Merit and that he became a platoon leader.

Bluestar has also achieved a lot. After serving in the mountains on the dragon front, he was able to pursue the officer career as a professional soldier. He is now a sergeant. But soon, his promotion to an officer soon changes.

Monday 15 January 29 years after Twilight sparkles coronation.

The Jagdstaffel 2 has lost many good men in recent times. Just three weeks after Soarin took the lead, he had already fallen. In the meantime, we had some new pilots but their life expectancy was not high. Because they lacked the experience or that.

Captain Fleetfoot took over the lead and she seems to be doing well too. However, she is carved from a completely different wood than her predecessors.
Soarin was first and foremost a comrade and then a leader. Soarin was too insecure to be a real leader, and so the squadron of fighters became independent a few times. But Fleetfoot always has a strict military tone. She had never tried to be a comrade. Sonder usually saw us as more cannon fodder. I also guessed that was why Lightning Dust accepted the offer to take over the Jagdstaffel 11.

She received the offer for her Outstanding Performance on our Last Mission. With that, she also got the Air Force Hero of the Order, since I met her, that was her goal. Of course it was not the order itself but the recognition that came with it.

Everyone in the military no matter what rank he has to greet them now as if they were his superior.

On the same day I received the Iron Cross First Class and the Knight's Cross of Canterloter Military Service.

Which does pretty well on my uniform.

In addition to my elevation to the knight and nobility is not associated with it, but she was part of me because I have achieved the most victories in our last fight.

Now I can call myself Nightstar of our Town.
Because of this appointment, my thirst for action has grown a lot. After all, I still have to honor this title. But since an end of the war is not yet in sight I will probably still have all the time in the world.

Friday 6 April 29 years after Twilight sparkles coronation.

After the Princess Twilight sparkles re-agreed to the unrestricted submarine war and some USAP ships were singed. The supply to our enemies brought. The united pony states have declared war on us.
A serious setback for us. Not only that last winter did not hurt us much and our rations have further reduced.

Now our enemies will arrive on the side of Fresh Enemy Soldiers in the next few weeks who are not yet worn down by the 3 years of war.

But these pony know the war only from their books. I hope you quickly get to know the worst sides of the war and return quickly to the return journey. When you see your mates dying in the mud like mayflies.

Despite this setback, there is also good news. The war caused more and more dissatisfaction among the dragons.
This resulted in a revolution that threatens to overthrow the whole country into chaos. If this revolution succeeds, the army of the dragons will be demoralized and winning will be a breeze. If then the revolutionaries then also ask for peace then that could solve all our problems.
We will then still be able to win the war.

Wednesday 4 June 29 years after Twilight sparkles coronation.

Today I learned that Bluestar was promoted to general two months ago and fought with his men against the dragons in the East.
As hoped, the revolution had greatly weakened the army of dragons. Even weeks ago they did not carry out an offensive anymore but kept withdrawing.

Bigfire is still on the Yaksfront. The beginning of the war has not moved. Since the yaks have now given up their attacking attempts, he plays most of the time cards with his comrades.

Broken iron was forced to hold the position until spring. Because the terrain makes a mistake as good as impossible.

This gave the opponent time to reorganize. Added a few dragons to support.

But since the outbreak of the revolution have probably lost their fighting spirit. This should not make it so difficult for Broken Iron to secure the oil fields there. Also in Jagdstaffel 2 it is finally progressing after the captain Fleetfoot after 2 months after Saddle Arabia had been transferred. I got the offer to take over the hunting squadron. Which of course I have accepted directly.

Associated with this was a promotion to captain. So now Bigfire and I are in the same rank. I was glad that Fleetfoot was gone and the Jagdstaffel 2 has become a laughing stock.

Now it's up to me to fix that.

Sunday 23 September 29 years after Twilight sparkles coronation.

It is now over 2 months since I took over the leadership of the Jagdstaffel 2. For that the morale of my men has increased significantly. Because they were glad to have someone from their midst as their leader.

Also, I've learned a lot about troop management through Spitfire and have largely taken over their leadership streak.

This had meant that the Jagdstaffel 2 had become a real competitor to Lightning Dust Jagdstaffel 11.

However, I have to say that his squadron has flown much worse after his head injury.
As a result of our success, the Supreme Command was confirmed in its decision and I was promoted to Chief Captain.

n Saddle Arabia, Broken iron was involved in some fierce fighting. But could hold his position.

Bigfire has landed in the hospital once again. But this time he had no wounding no it was pneumonia.

Besides, I finally got another letter from General Rainbow Dash. She had heard of my done and congratulated me on my title of nobility. I hope I meet again whom the war is over. Then we can sit down and tell each other old war stories.

Tuesday, December 11 29 years after Twilight sparkles coronation.

Another year of war is running out, and yet we have managed to win a big part victory. The dragon empire has fallen into chaos after the Communist revolution.

As expected, the revolutionaries have agreed to a truce. The now 6 days lasts. But Bluestar and Broken Iron are still on the Eastern Front and will probably stay there until the peace treaty.
succeeding in these negotiations so we could finally concentrate all our forces in the West and thus end this war.

Despite this good news, the army must take a heavy loss. General Rainbow Dash fell 2 weeks ago during a battle.

She received an honorary funeral and was awarded the Order Hero of Equestria No.3.

Was Princess Twilight sparkle so bad at protecting her friends?

When I found out about it, I drank a bottle of cider Smoked the first time in my life and gave my squadron the order to honor. That was accepted by the supreme command.
