TARGET ID: LSF Directors and Deputy Directors
SUBJECT: Felicia Drum
ENCRYPTION: High
PRIORITY: Medium

Evening David, nice to get a responce.

Anyway, I think you may have slightly misunderstood. Just because someone shoots at us, it doesn't mean they are working for rheinland. I personally had the pleasure of seeing Miss Drum shooting and getting shot at by a group of Rheinland Military personel. Infact I have reason to believe she may well be associated with the disappearance of the former Rheinland Admiral Gunther Rall.

I doubt the RM know anything based on what she is aware of. Not that it is the best kept secret in Sirius anyway. What sort of a half-witted moron would assume that following the war in 800AS, the governments of sirius would just sit back and say "well, I guess that's that then" and neglect to even look at the alien race that brought humanity in the sector right to the brink of destruction... Most people who have the capability to think will just assume that the Bretonians, Rheinlanders, Kusarians, and us, will have a program for researching the little blue monsters that damned near killed us all. Infact I would suggest that most people outside the forces would regard it is your duty to learn more about them. Don't you? How about you go and take off the uniform for a day, and ask a few questions to ordinary people on a Manhattan street. See what they think the LSF does with it's time.

Just perhaps, David, the LSF could cease to see things in such a black and white manner. Not everyone that shoots your men, or mine, is working for rheinland. Not every individual is acting on the agenda of a far larger organisation. Some people, David, are quite simply angry.

In Drum's case, I'd suggest she is losing her grip on reality.

I'm still of the mind that Miss Drum should, if possible, be taken alive.

Hale out.
