Sounds like yuo need to join the academy.
The hp stats ie escorts is done by going into a ships 'misc' area and ticking the 'escort' button.
Objectives are done using sexps in the objectives menu, not entirely sure off the top of my head. But I think its something like adding them in there and tying them in with the game objectives stuff.

The walkthough does cover both of these things (You really should work your way through it, it's fantastic) but seeing as how I'm a good mood I'll answer this time
Directives are done my making an event in the events editor that will trigger when the directive is true. For instance you'd use when-is-destroyed-delay-0-cancer if you wanted to have a directive come true when cancer wing was destroyed. The Directive text box directly below the events themselves is where you put the text you want to show up onscreen.
The escort list is much easier. Click on the ship you want to appear. Go into the ships editor >> Misc Properties, tick the escort ship box and change the escort priority. The three ships currently present in the mission with the highest priority will be the ones who show up.

Don't scare him off. Besides I know that you're only suggesting it so that you can join in and call it a group hug
