Admiral,

once more thank you very much for this meeting. I do hope I was able to answer your questions. Here is the list of names of my crew members the Commodore requested. I doubt though any of them are problematic. So far we have a working microcosmos here on the ship, most people are socializing pretty well.

Adrianna Carr, 46, Manhattan, Doctor
Lindsay Camillo, 28, New London, Counselor
Collin Bush, 28, Pittsburgh, System Engineer
Veronica Cummings, 26, Manhattan, Hazard System Officer
Jennifer Hauser, 22, Freeport 9, Energy Core Engineer
Tasha Wright, 29, New London, Botanist/Biologist
Kyle Wheeler, 38, Corfu Base, Weapon Control Officer
Insa Bockmeyer, 41, Neu Berlin, Consultant
Jeff Powell, 46, Freeport 5, Technician
Lorena Hawkins, 25, Libertonian, Shield Distribution Officer
Cedric Vaughn, 21, Corfu Base, Sensors Officer
Brian Tate, 29, Freeport 4, Damage Control Engineer
George Poole, 33, Cambridge, Astrometics Scientist
Annie Reese, 23, Freeport 5, Maintenance Engineer
Sherry Aguilar, 28, Gran Canaria, Conn Officer
Darrel Hodges, 42, Houston, Security Officer
Kevin Boone, 20, Neu Berlin, Armory Officer
Asato Toru, 22, Honshu, Diagnostic Engineer
Rafael Glover, 30, Freeport 9, Space Warfare Specialist
Leon Isley, 26, Curacao, Chief Engineer
Ezrael Vertiga, 32, Curacao, Super Hero

That is how it right now looks like. Thallia Thorn technically is also part of the crew, however we didn't see her for months. I guess she is either somewhere on Cambridge at the university or working on something in the cellars of the IRG. You see the list is rather small, and we completely rely on our Kishiro Service Robots to have them perform most routine tasks. In the meantime, we are trying to hire more reliable personnel, however the circumstances don't often allow it to find trustworthy people. Unlike you, I don't have a Commodore to keep my back safe.

By the way, Admiral, I would like to ask you whether you could share the things we talked about with me. I probably will find the public announcement of the Coalition myself, but I would really like to know what weird stuff the bird and her cybersuit-fanatical Who-Am-I loverboy and her power rangers were talking about my crew. At some point, that simply has to stop. Although that shouldn't be your concern.

Also, what I wanted to add. It might be only helpful to a certain degree, but I have this little remote-controlled ship in Bretonia, the Handsome Rover. My chief engineer surprised his girlfriend with something similar, as he managed to connect the auto-pilot via neural net to control it remotely. Pretty cool for, has quite a bunch of issues, like it doesn't work too well in nebulae and needs to be used in a system with jump gates or with the controller in two jumps range. It also does only work with Light Fighters so far, some companies probably have better versions of that. However, I used that for the Handsome Rover to assist the BAF a few days ago in the Taus and in Leeds. Just poke me and I can send the drone with your fleet. It won't be able to fight, but intercept ships and missiles with cruise disruptors. Since I am not a combat pilot for snubs, that is what I can offer in the meantime, while the board discusses my case.

I hope to read from you soon, Admiral.
