Attention All Hands – Urgent Message from DOPS:
In this difficult time, I know that many of us have had to self-isolate, or are already restricted with health or mobility issues, so I would like to call upon Unit Commanding Officers and Senior Staff to endeavour to make sure we at least attempt to offer our members something to distract them from the ever-growing situation we find ourselves in.
And to our other ranks, our members who are the lifeblood of the Fleet – I urge you to get involved any way you can: discuss, chat, engage with us all, let’s get through this together with the bare minimum casualties.
Talk to your Commanding Officer about activities you can assist in, take part in or suggest.
Let’s prove that it takes more than a pandemic to slow the Home Fleet Down…
DOPS out.

We Are Starfleet: 2018 Commendations List
To all hands, all stations: I hope that today has brought you joy, peace and - let's face it, it's what we're all hoping for - merry bushels of loot. This year has been a busy one for the Admiralty and not without it's challenges: with Discovery on our screens, interest in organised fandom has grown once again and we have welcomed a great many of those fans into the home fleet but we have also seen our fandom shaken by those who don't share our views or perhaps even our core beliefs. Fortunately, Discovery gave us a new rallying cry: We are Starfleet - we are one. From the most driven fan to the casual viewer, we are here for you, we accept you, understand you and welcome you - you have a home here. Our members have always […]

Mark Mitchell; 1969-2026
It's with great sadness we report that our Director of Operations, Mark Mitchell, has sadly passed away suddenly earlier this week. Mark was one of our longest serving members and a huge part of what helped shape what SFCQ2 is today. Having served in leadership as a CO, throughout fleet support and originating the role of Director of Administration, Mark's unyielding dedication to the club and his multiple contributions over the decades undoubtedly make him worthy of his Legend handle. From writing the entire base for our modern Academy to being vital in the fleet restructure, to offering support and advice to countless members to support leadership and direction, Mark's efforts serve, and will likely continue to serve, as the backbone of everything that makes Q2 with his primary goal always being to offer the best of everything and push […]

Promotions & Confirmations for Proxima & Kaga!
Now that 2025 is in the rear viewscreen, we can safely look back to what was a chaotic year both in and out of the Admin office. Admittedly things were busy behind the curtain and a few things fell off the radar. One of them being confirmations for new units.... When a new unit is brought into Q2, whether assimilated to the collective or built from scratch, each group goes through a 'shakedown' period and once that periods completed successfully, the ship is fully confirmed as part of SFC's structure. Traditionally a shakedown cruise is a building phase that lasts six months with goals to fulfill with new leaders and untested Captains looking for support and advice. Being honest, our latest entries into Q2 were doing that well that they didn't need anyone to help steer the ship. Both ships […]
