I started my patrol in the Leeds system. After undocking from the Derby, I noticed a Kusari Naval Forces pilot in the vicinity. After pursuing him for some time, we arrived in the West Leeds Smog Cloud. I engaged but my ship got destroyed. Fortunately, a passing patrol picked my pod up to return me to the Derby
Barett out.

[color=#CCFFFF]Good Afternoon Sir!

Here is my mission report for 22 November 819 A.S.

I had just dropped off some Molly prisoners at BPA Newgate when I received an EMA message that Avengers had been spotted in Dublin.

I immediately told the BPA ground crew to stand-clear for a scramble launch and jumped into my Templar.

Once I had cleared the minefield I engaged my cruise engines and headed for Sheffield Station.
By now a number of other BAF and Bowex pilots had responded to the EMA. Bowex)Angry.Badger3 informed me the battle had moved to the Leeds system; I set course for the Leeds jump hole as the quickest route.

However, out of nowhere a Reaver fired 1, 2, 3 missiles at me! I quickly evaded and dropped counter measures, hit engine kill and rotated 180'€™ to face him! Fortunately for me the CM'€™s did their job and as now I was drifting at 340kps he could not use CD or get a missile lock.
I reported that I had encountered a Reaver ship (ID: Shadow.Reaver) on the Group Comm's. BAF|Skirmister replied that they had Leeds under control and that I should hunt the Reaver down.

I punched in the new co-ordinates and plotted my course for New London; as this was the direction the Reaver went in after he gave up trying to CD my engines.

I found the Reaver nears Gateshead Station shooting BPA snubs and ordered him to power down his weapons and surrender; I shall not repeat his reply sir, it was most offensive!
I asked him what his intentions were, he replied to put my head on his mantle piece; whatever a mantle piece is; I hit the thrusters and charged him.

His ship is a GMG designed bomber, but I managed to keep him in my sights as my ship seemed to have a better turn rate; however when I switched guns, he managed to get a good turn on me and took out my ships shields.

I evaded, strafed and took down his shields and half his hull in my next pass. The fight was going well; when suddenly my controls jammed, I could not turn or strafe; 3 seconds later I hit vacuum; stars exploding inside my head, when I realised my ship had disintegrated and the emergency ejection system had fired the cockpit clear of my exploding Templar.
I'€™m really grateful to guy that invented this system; that'€™s the third time it'€™s saved my life.

The Reaver had obviously managed to get a lock in those 3 seconds and fired a SNAC weapon; I was fortunate he didn'€™t see my pod in the wreckage; otherwise I wouldn'€™t be here today to make this report. Unfortunately the energy released in the explosion completely destroyed all gun camera data; voice only was recovered.

Let this be a lesson to all pilots; don'€™t fly in a straight line for longer than a second, that'€™s all it takes and also get your ships checked so you don'€™t find yourself with frozen controls or worse; sucking the vacuum of space.

Good day to you Sir!

::OPENING MESSAGE::

From: Lieutenant James Barett
Target: BAF Defense Intelligence Staff
Subject: Report for today

Today, I undocked from the Derby and found a trader undocking from the trade lane to the New London gate. I asked him where he was taking his cargo and he told me it was bound for Newcastle. I stayed for a couple of minutes to confirm this and when he had proceeded up the trade lane to the Newcastle gate, I continued to New London. There was nothing of interest between there and the Cambridge gate, although I downed three Corsair pilots and took their escape pods to the Norfolk for processing. Afterwards, I returned to New London and flew to Dublin. I am currently docked at the Essex.
Barett out.

My patrol was based on Leeds system, when I reached last waypoint I saw not so strong reading of allied ships. I tried to find them but without much luck, my signal was weaker and weaker and after several seconds I received message with coordinates on the secure channel. I didn't think much, just started my engines and head to known coordinates. On the sight was one policeman and captain of Destroyer capital vessel already in heavy fire by Kusarian battleship, also this situation didn't take much of my brain activity I just activated all of my weapons in order to defend royal Crown.

Without much firepower we lost one Destroyer and basically all our hope to defeat battleship was gone along with captain escape pod but we manage to disable life support on enemy battleship, shortly after we returned to base because ship weapon system was dealing much damage and we had to pull back.

"Salutes" Greetings admiralty, I'm here with papers for my promotion. From this point of view I think everything is prepared for new rank:

-Patrol reports: Done
-Flying Time: 30 Hours of flight in space and over a month duty as Lieutenant
-Precision: I think I reached new level of attitude

I participated in several battles and managed to stay alive showing good leading skills over the ensigns, so far I didn't lose any pilot under my watch, successfully done daily patrols and significant impact in the war against Kusari Empire.
