Guten tag, Herr Konteradmiral.

I would like to keep this between as few people as possible.

There has been an "escape incident" at Hammersee, but the details are not forthcoming. I would send Beist, but he's as marked as I am by now, and with few contacts besides. Meanwhile, Gunter and his staff are as busy as ever. But you have assets in the system - make use of them to look around.

Coordinate with the Polizei, but don't push too hard. This should be another routine request from our end. While that is ongoing, keep your eyes open. I want to know who escaped, who arranged it, and what they're planning to do next. In case you are curious, this connects to the Direktorat. If we can get to these people before the Polizei, we may acquire leverage over future changes within the Unioners. But I personally have no issue with them being re-captured, or eliminated, as necessary.

Use this node to provide updates, either from your own office, or anyone you can trust to involve. I am counting on you, Erich, to take advantage of this opportunity.
