	All of these ships served with honor in the StarFire Region.
	*In honor of the IKV Black Dagger's long service and commitment, a new Fleet wide award has been created. Created by and approved by the Admiralty of the Ring of Fire Fleet. Fleet Admiral K'Han Den and Vice Admiral KataH It should be noted that the IKV Black Dagger has been awarded the ra' pov (Command of Excellence) service award on March 1, 2005 and was the first such ship in the StarFire Region of the Ring of Fire Fleet to receive such an award. The ra' pov (Command of Excellence) service award is only given to those ships whose crews have gone on to form other ships, have shown creativity above and beyond what is demanded, and whose service years have come to an end after 10+ years of service to the Ring of Fire Fleet.
The IKV Black Dagger was one of the most inspiring ships of the time. Formed from members of the IKV Midnight Dagger, The Black Dagger, under jIl'Qun's leadership (Tom Twohy) and it's gallant crew, participated in no less than 50 events over a 10 year period. Most noteworthy was The Feast in Las Vegas and the Aptos 4th of July Parade. All members of the IKV Black Dagger, current and former, should be proud of their accomplishments, the battles they won, the Bloodwine they drank - and they drank more than their share, the dedication and creativity they gave to the Ring of Fire Fleet.
