17/4/827 Doctor Holliday interview
I managed to locate the famous Doctor Holliday whilst out on patrol in New York, we had a short chat and I believe we shall have a more detailed talk later on. The recording of this interview is below.
[17.04.2020 21:31:25] [MFE]Doc.Holliday: Do not know what they would want with an old, country doctor like me but....
[17.04.2020 21:32:09] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: A old country doctor, can I quote that?
[17.04.2020 21:32:29] {DHC}CSD-Charlemagne: Gallia est omnis divisa in partes tres
[17.04.2020 21:32:30] [MFE]Doc.Holliday: I speak that, Hispania, Gallic and a little Kusari
[17.04.2020 21:32:53] [MFE]Doc.Holliday: You may quote that if you like
[17.04.2020 21:32:54] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: Oh Latin, how cultured!
[17.04.2020 21:33:10] [MFE]Doc.Holliday: Request of my parents.
[17.04.2020 21:33:22] {DHC}CSD-Charlemagne: Anyway, I'll leave you two be *she lights up a cigarette* Terribly sorry again Miss Kuzmivna
[17.04.2020 21:33:33] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: Thankyou for your concern.
[17.04.2020 21:33:48] [MFE]Doc.Holliday: You hurt at all?
[17.04.2020 21:33:50] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: Well Doctor Holliday, if you wish a expose on MFE I can do that.
[17.04.2020 21:34:00] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: No, in perfect health.
[17.04.2020 21:34:28] [MFE]Doc.Holliday: We are having a grand opening of Med Force General-B in Omicron Theta on Sunday. You want a story? You will get one
[17.04.2020 21:34:34] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: I'm sure our listeners would be welcoming to a expose of a day of the life of Holliday.
[17.04.2020 21:34:42] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: Ah well, I'm afraid I can't make it
[17.04.2020 21:35:18] [MFE]Doc.Holliday: Oddly enough, my life is uninteresting to most. If I am not in surgery, I am in this ship earning funds for the Enterprise
[17.04.2020 21:35:40] [MFE]Doc.Holliday: I try to keep my routes and even cargo as Zoner as possible
[17.04.2020 21:36:14] [MFE]Doc.Holliday: Somewhere around here the fur is flying
[17.04.2020 21:36:15] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: Well you've been around for awhile
[17.04.2020 21:36:23] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: Gained some fame, and infamy.
[17.04.2020 21:36:27] [MFE]Doc.Holliday: Yes, I have been
[17.04.2020 21:36:45] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: Do you ever intend to retire?
[17.04.2020 21:37:05] [MFE]Doc.Holliday: Oh possibly but for now, I have much left to do and much to offer
[17.04.2020 21:37:17] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: Every stalwart.
[17.04.2020 21:37:20] [MFE]Doc.Holliday: At least, I think so
[17.04.2020 21:37:40] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: I'm sure your life can be stressful at times, like with Gran Canaria
[17.04.2020 21:37:51] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: But has there been anything recent beyond this, new base construction?
[17.04.2020 21:37:52] [MFE]Doc.Holliday: It can be.
[17.04.2020 21:38:11] [MFE]Doc.Holliday: The new base is keeping us busy
[17.04.2020 21:38:29] [MFE]Doc.Holliday: I have another in Baffin but that one I keep quiet about
[17.04.2020 21:38:38] [MFE]Doc.Holliday: I am good, Sir. Thank you
[17.04.2020 21:38:48] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: Ah.
[17.04.2020 21:39:00] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: **Irina notes this down
[17.04.2020 21:39:16] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: What do you wish to see, for the future of MFE?
[17.04.2020 21:39:57] [MFE]Doc.Holliday: To continue with our mission and to continue researching new treatments and medicines
[17.04.2020 21:40:32] [MFE]Doc.Holliday: Recently, I hired Miss. Jill Xi to head up pharmaceuticals
[17.04.2020 21:40:39] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: Ah
[17.04.2020 21:40:46] [MFE]Doc.Holliday: Oh that had to hurt
[17.04.2020 21:41:04] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: You still are a part of Zoners, you have a lot of sway due to your veteranship.
[17.04.2020 21:41:11] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: What do you wish to see for the future of us Zoners?
[17.04.2020 21:41:53] [MFE]Doc.Holliday: Um...you may want to get some cover, Miss
[17.04.2020 21:42:22] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: Mm, I am detecting them as well. Our interview may have to be cut short.
[17.04.2020 21:42:37] [MFE]Doc.Holliday: Thing is, where are they?
[17.04.2020 21:43:38] [MFE]Doc.Holliday: //I would say let's do this over a drink but then that is a forum RP
[17.04.2020 21:43:44] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: Well, hm. This shall go in my weekly newsletter.

[17.04.2020 21:44:02] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: // I'm open to Forum RP, little rusty but yea
[17.04.2020 21:44:14] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: Thankyou for your time, Doctor Holliday.
[17.04.2020 21:44:25] [MFE]Doc.Holliday: You know, we could take this panetside if you like over a drink.
[17.04.2020 21:44:48] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: Planetside? Hm, how about we do it at your HQ. I would love a tour then a drink.
[17.04.2020 21:45:11] [MFE]Doc.Holliday: My nearest base is a good ways from here.
[17.04.2020 21:45:21] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: Then we can arrange a meeting.
[17.04.2020 21:45:35] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: In-any case. Thankyou for this short interview.
[17.04.2020 21:45:45] [MFE]Doc.Holliday: You are most welcome
18/4/827 KNF and UN system argument
Whilst doing a routine patrol looking for news in New Berlin, I managed to find a KNF vessel within New Berlin. A argument happened between this vessel and the UN in system chat. The log of there conversation is below, as well as a image of the KNF ship that arrived. It's certainly a interesting argument between the two.
[18.04.2020 17:15:42] UN|Vorfahr: Well,things are changing here in Rheinland,as you can see..
[18.04.2020 17:15:47] [SMR]Fr.Wagner:: Then I will ask. Was are you doing here, Herr?
[18.04.2020 17:15:51] [KNF]Kenbutsu(KNI): I have definitely seen
[18.04.2020 17:16:12] [KNF]Kenbutsu(KNI): Just curiosity, Wagner
[18.04.2020 17:16:17] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: Hello.
[18.04.2020 17:16:39] [SMR]Fr.Wagner:: You sind nicht authorised to be here, Herr. Leave Rheinland immediately.
[18.04.2020 17:16:49] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: A KNF in New Berlin, interesting!
[18.04.2020 17:16:52] {DHC}Bavaria: What is this?
[18.04.2020 17:16:58] [KNF]Kenbutsu(KNI): Well, if you insist
[18.04.2020 17:16:59] {DHC}Bavaria: Foreign invaders?
[18.04.2020 17:17:09] UN|Vorfahr: Well,you could just gently knock to Rheinwehrs office if you're curious
[18.04.2020 17:18:48] UN|Vorfahr: Leaving already? Shame, thought you'd appreaciate our hospitality
[18.04.2020 17:19:21] [KNF]Kenbutsu(KNI): I am just a law abiding civilian, though it's strange I was given the attention instead of you
[18.04.2020 17:20:17] UN|Vorfahr: Law abiding Naval,let me remind
[18.04.2020 17:21:03] [KNF]Kenbutsu(KNI): Hardly a Naval officer without any authority
[18.04.2020 17:21:38] UN|Vorfahr: Be sure to bring something official that'll make us tolerate your stay here
[18.04.2020 17:21:54] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: This is all very interesting
[18.04.2020 17:21:58] [KNF]Kenbutsu(KNI): As if a pirate has any authority in Rheinland
[18.04.2020 17:22:08] UN|Vorfahr: Or you won't like meeting us again
[18.04.2020 17:22:18] [KNF]Kenbutsu(KNI): "us"?
[18.04.2020 17:22:20] UN|Vorfahr: Pirate? Please
[18.04.2020 17:23:21] UN|Vorfahr: Defender of Emperor's will suits us more this days
[18.04.2020 17:23:59] [KNF]Kenbutsu(KNI): Defender of Emperor's Will? Meaning, you're the ones behind the coup? Interesting.
[18.04.2020 17:26:29] UN|Vorfahr: Behind the coup is only foolish ignorance of Bundestag that honest Rheinland arbeiters are suffering for centuries
[18.04.2020 17:26:56] [KNF]Kenbutsu(KNI): Then educate me, this seems important to you
[18.04.2020 17:27:07] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: This is very interesting
[18.04.2020 17:27:48] [KNF]Kenbutsu(KNI): I would prefer on neutral ground, unless you want an audience over system wide comms
[18.04.2020 17:28:34] UN|Vorfahr: Well,I'm not your usual Coalition comissar to yell speches,so neutral ground it is
20/4/827 Interview with Self-Described "Patriots" VFK
I encountered the VFK again, this time they did not chase me out and gave me a interview to explain some of their positions. I have no opinion of this, it is up to you all Listeners to create your own opinion. What I did not
[20.04.2020 16:14:50] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: Hi

[20.04.2020 16:15:22] VFK|Hoellenfeuer: Wunderbar
[20.04.2020 16:15:25] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: Hello- erm, again.
[20.04.2020 16:15:45] VFK|Firekiss: Mein herr, sadly I can't find bounty on her
[20.04.2020 16:16:09] VFK|Hoellenfeuer: Because so far we don't see that she did anything nevertheless.
[20.04.2020 16:16:09] VFK|Firekiss: So, why are you here?
[20.04.2020 16:16:15] VFK|Hoellenfeuer: So far...
[20.04.2020 16:16:21] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: Passing...through?
[20.04.2020 16:16:28] Death: Unbriix was put out of action by a hostile vessel.
[20.04.2020 16:16:40] Death: LaCruz was put out of action by [LN]-Barney.Ross (Mine).
[20.04.2020 16:16:53] VFK|Firekiss: Intresting.......
[20.04.2020 16:17:32] VFK|Hoellenfeuer: What are you looking for now?
[20.04.2020 16:17:48] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: I'm sure you're not allowed to do this at a Freeport.
[20.04.2020 16:18:03] VFK|Firekiss: Doing what?
[20.04.2020 16:18:22] VFK|Firekiss: We're just loyal citizens of our beloved Rheinland
[20.04.2020 16:18:24] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: Well, collecting bounties.
[20.04.2020 16:18:41] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: You haven't made good first impressions.
[20.04.2020 16:19:08] VFK|Hoellenfeuer: Do you think we care of a foreigner's opinion?
[20.04.2020 16:19:14] VFK|Hoellenfeuer: Especially someone of communistic origin?
[20.04.2020 16:19:23] VFK|Firekiss: My duty is to find and punish evryone unworthy of my beloved Rheinland
[20.04.2020 16:19:31] Death: Unbriix suffered a self-inflicted catastrophic decompression.
[20.04.2020 16:19:33] VFK|Hoellenfeuer: It is my duty as well.
[20.04.2020 16:19:36] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: No, but, I am a reporter.
[20.04.2020 16:20:09] VFK|Firekiss: But you *narrows his eyes* If there will be bounty on your head......hehehehe......
[20.04.2020 16:20:18] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: Is that a threat?
[20.04.2020 16:20:29] VFK|Hoellenfeuer: I guess it depends how you look at it.
[20.04.2020 16:20:33] VFK|Firekiss: *nods*
[20.04.2020 16:20:36] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: I am free press, I have a fair and balanced viewpoint but you are suspicious of my intentions.
[20.04.2020 16:21:03] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: Firstly what is the VFK?
[20.04.2020 16:21:14] VFK|Hoellenfeuer: Wir est Valkyrie Freikorps.
[20.04.2020 16:21:30] VFK|Hoellenfeuer: And with Rheinland's current situation we do not take lightly on anyone.
[20.04.2020 16:21:36] VFK|Hoellenfeuer: Especially foreigners.
[20.04.2020 16:22:34] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: Some would say that is a facist, viewpoint.
[20.04.2020 16:22:35] ~ZMI~Sense.Of.Whale: hi all
[20.04.2020 16:22:46] ~ZMI~Sense.Of.Whale: ?
[20.04.2020 16:23:07] VFK|Firekiss: Facist is a millenia old word
[20.04.2020 16:23:17] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: Then what would you describe yourself as?
[20.04.2020 16:23:25] ~ZMI~Sense.Of.Whale: i though they was hessian
[20.04.2020 16:23:44] VFK|Hoellenfeuer: Hessen? We kill them, we don't fraternize with them nor are we part of them.
[20.04.2020 16:23:45] VFK|Firekiss: *fascist
[20.04.2020 16:23:56] VFK|Hoellenfeuer: We're hired guns.
[20.04.2020 16:24:02] VFK|Hoellenfeuer: Former Rheinwehr soldaten.
[20.04.2020 16:24:27] ~ZMI~Sense.Of.Whale: fortunately it's our fp
[20.04.2020 16:24:30] VFK|Hoellenfeuer: Still earning a coin, and acting against Rheinland's enemies where the hand of the law can't reach.
[20.04.2020 16:25:15] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: But, your political idealogy is?
[20.04.2020 16:25:33] ~ZMI~Sense.Of.Whale: a sort of mercenary
[20.04.2020 16:26:07] VFK|Hoellenfeuer: Why are you trying to talk in our names.
[20.04.2020 16:26:30] VFK|Firekiss: What about your idealogy?
[20.04.2020 16:26:31] ~ZMI~Sense.Of.Whale: me no absolutely not
[20.04.2020 16:26:52] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: Neutrality
[20.04.2020 16:27:05] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: Egalitarian.
[20.04.2020 16:27:10] VFK|Firekiss: Pile of Zoner crap
[20.04.2020 16:27:22] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: Hmph
[20.04.2020 16:27:41] ~ZMI~Sense.Of.Whale: it is surprising to see 2 red ships, only this
[20.04.2020 16:28:34] VFK|Firekiss: Why wouldn't you just admit that your neutrality is for hiding your own plans
[20.04.2020 16:29:10] VFK|Hoellenfeuer: Conspiracy, I like that.
[20.04.2020 16:29:19] ~ZMI~Sense.Of.Whale: as i heard there is a treaty between bretonia and rheinland
[20.04.2020 16:29:24] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: My plans are to report in a fair and balanced way
[20.04.2020 16:29:35] VFK|Hoellenfeuer: 'Fair and balanced'.
[20.04.2020 16:29:40] VFK|Firekiss: But people can't be balanced
[20.04.2020 16:29:43] VFK|Hoellenfeuer: I read your little 'newsletter'.
[20.04.2020 16:29:51] VFK|Hoellenfeuer: The way you decided to describe us.
[20.04.2020 16:29:55] VFK|Hoellenfeuer: Very kind of you.
[20.04.2020 16:30:02] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: What would you like to be described as?
[20.04.2020 16:30:19] VFK|Hoellenfeuer: Patriots, on a more docile term.
[20.04.2020 16:30:23] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: And you did personally insult me, it is not a good first impression
[20.04.2020 16:30:39] VFK|Hoellenfeuer: We do not like foreigners, especially not commies.
[20.04.2020 16:30:44] VFK|Firekiss: *nods*
[20.04.2020 16:30:46] VFK|Hoellenfeuer: You're still a commie deep there.
[20.04.2020 16:31:05] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: My heritage does not effect my judgement.
[20.04.2020 16:31:09] ~ZMI~Sense.Of.Whale: have you been limoged by your army?
[20.04.2020 16:31:14] VFK|Hoellenfeuer: Maybe it does maybe it does not.
[20.04.2020 16:31:16] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: But, you are with the Unioners no?
[20.04.2020 16:31:27] VFK|Hoellenfeuer: Yes, because we have to.
[20.04.2020 16:31:37] VFK|Hoellenfeuer: Down there they're still Rheinlanders.
[20.04.2020 16:31:40] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: So you would fight them after this war is over?
[20.04.2020 16:31:45] Death: LaCruz suffered a self-inflicted catastrophic decompression.
[20.04.2020 16:31:45] VFK|Hoellenfeuer: Nein.
[20.04.2020 16:31:52] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: Because they are, as I understand, left wing.
[20.04.2020 16:31:53] VFK|Hoellenfeuer: Not that we like them a lot, but we have to live with them.
[20.04.2020 16:32:04] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: Interesting.
[20.04.2020 16:32:06] ~ZMI~Sense.Of.Whale: my friends live in a unioner territory
[20.04.2020 16:33:00] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: **Irina notes this down**
[20.04.2020 16:33:17] ~ZMI~Sense.Of.Whale: *he he *
[20.04.2020 16:33:43] VFK|Firekiss: But things are getting intresting
[20.04.2020 16:33:55] VFK|Firekiss: As i heard Liberty Navy amassing in Hudson
[20.04.2020 16:34:25] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: I have no news of that.
[20.04.2020 16:34:34] ~ZMI~Sense.Of.Whale: it's hot as i heard with the civil war
[20.04.2020 16:35:09] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: I think I shall report.
[20.04.2020 16:35:09] VFK|Hoellenfeuer: It seems to me they're looking for trouble.
[20.04.2020 16:35:14] VFK|Hoellenfeuer: If you ask me.
[20.04.2020 16:35:14] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: And move on, hm.
[20.04.2020 16:35:59] VFK|Hoellenfeuer: Auf wiedersehen then, commie.
[20.04.2020 16:36:00] ~ZMI~Sense.Of.Whale: strange Rheinland is quiet generally
[20.04.2020 16:36:08] ZIN|Irina.Kuzmivna: Until we do
23/4/827 DHC Convoy
I had the pleasure of accompany a DHC convoy from Dublin to New Berlin, thankfully nothing disturbed the convoy but I did take some pictures of the convoy. Personally It was quite impressive and professional convoy.
