SENDER ID: Lieutenant Junior Grade Jorzza Clark SUBJECT: Infiltration into Rhienland Territory ENCRYPTION:Medium PRIORITY: Moderate
Big surprise with this mission, myself and Ensign Dimitri infiltrated into the New Berlin System via the Jump hole about 150 Klicks away from Battleship Westfallen. Dimitri and I departed from Houston orbit alongside with with a few Liberty Law-fulls and a LSF Assault Battle cruiser. we Proceeded to Westfallen via Trade lanes and Lawful Jump gates. we rode straight into the New Berlin System and held just outside their Orbital defenses and radar. until a local Rheinland battleship patrol came upon us and the LSF Battle cruiser designated "Patton". while in this we ran into a LSF Liberty gunboat. why a LSF gunboat was even in Berlin let alone knew about our mission is a bit concerning. the LSF's gunboat was designated "Iron Hammer". i pulled back the fighters and let the heavier ships take out the caps. after they were taken out we waited, shot up a few Fighter patrols and then proceeded back to Houston.
AMENDMENT
as i was writing this report a call came out that there was a Rhienland Battle Contingent consisting of about half a dozen cruisers and a Battleship in orbit around Houston, at that time a Launched my Upholder Bomber. calling upon any forces we could muster on such short notice, Officer ColBride alerted me to the attack and i scrambled. Myself and the other forces that responded took out a few of their cruisers and heavily damaged their BS flagship. the enemy began to fire in random directions that i can only assume that was caused by panic that the tide was turning in our favor and we had more forces inbound. unfortunately the incredibly large wingspan of the upholder became a hassle to maneuver to dodge their fire, i had to eject and i was quickly recovered by a recovery team, at that time Colbride had also ejected but our very own Remus Sius was inbound. i am now safely on Houston organizing transport back to FleetHQ.
personal I'm pretty bummed out about having to eject again but at least im not dead and i know the enemy is going to be blown to hell and back, repeatedly. as far as i know were taking minimum casualties but ill wait for the pre engagment report to find out the actual death toll.
