PLAYBACK INITIATED
TRANSCRIPT PROCESSING:

[The recording's audio quality is poor - the playback is full of crackles, cuts in the audio, and the noise of engines flaring in the background continues the whole way through the file.]

Uh- this is Agent Marshall - I'm with the LSF, as I'm su- ... - know already. I- ... -ecording this from the cockpit, so I hope there's not too much distortion. As I speak, I'm- ... -clear'a the Kodiak perimeter, but I still have a ways to go. This here's just a- just me radioin' ahead. Don't have much time to get this transmission out, but I, uh- I'm gonna need your help.

[The tone in her voice is clearly bitter, even through the patchy audio quality.]

Adenauer is- ... -off the deep end. I can't keep doing this - not in good faith. And- and to make matters worse, I found more evide- ... -to condemn the Battlegroup than I did the Navy. I haven't seen the Director in weeks, and- ... -not liking the implications there. I think they know I'm onto them, too, so- ... -need to get the hell out of Dodge while I still can.

They've had our transponders shot to hell with this new signal, so- ... -just using this ship to get me out of here. I'm- I have more to tell you, but I can't-

[Abruptly, the recording shuts off for a brief period, before crackling back into life.]

-jammers up all over the place! I'm-

-via New Hampshire, heading for the Minneapolis. Send a team out- ... -pickup. I'll comply with whatever you need me to- better than gettin' killed out here.

Have to go- can't keep transmitting or else-
