[font=Fixedsys]Calder s[color=#FF9900]peaking. At 1200 hours today the Legion and Xenos launched a massive joint offensive against all Liberty Navy assets in the New York and Texas systems. The operation went off without a hitch and lasted approximately six hours in total. Debris is still raining down over Manhattan as I speak.
Both a major tactical and strategic success, the only major losses incurred were the Charybdis and Scylla, as well as the Libertine which suffered a full system lock and drifted into a trio of carriers at impulse speed. She'll be in drydock for quite awhile but that's nothing compared to the damage inflicted on the Navy. By our best estimates at least 15% of the secondary fleet is now in drydock or nothing more than debris. I think the evidence speaks for itself.
You've all more than earned at least three days leave, should you choose to take it. Today's operation confirms none other than that the Legion has the finest men and women in Sirius amongst it's ranks, sharper, faster, and bolder than any others.
I would also like to stress that the Xenos too were instrumental in seizing the day. They performed as any Legionnaire would, and in the field I'm very doubtful that we could have any better allies.
Both parties involved performed with the utmost excellency and integrity and I would give the Xeno pilots involved the option of shore leave as well if I had command authority over them. Well done, all of you.
High Command will be reviewing all pilots involved to see what medals and promotions may be in order. In the meantime, I suggest you relax, get as drunk as possible, and enjoy your time off.
