Comm ID: Admiral Sophia Cleveland Recipient: Fifth Fleet Subject: Nomads in New York
Today at around 16:30 Sirian Time, New York was under attack by Nomads. They attacked the system in several waves, lasting around one hour overall. Together with several Capital Vessels of the Core, LSF and even two Maltese Navy Ships, we managed to destroy all of them. I've counted around twelve Marduk class and several smaller nomads. The Warspite suffered mediocre damage during the attack and is being repaired at Norfolk. The Manhattan Defense Grid suffered almost no damage and the people of Liberty are safe again.
Nomads that close on Manhattan is just disgusting. We have to increase our presence in New York. I want every ship of the fleet one-hundred percent manned and ready to launch.
Furthermore, I want two mixed wings of fighters and bombers patrolling the Unstable Jumphole in Alaska twenty-four hours a day. This order is to be kept classified and only revealed to members of the Liberty Navy and Liberty Security Force. Remember, every ship not wearing a Navy or LSF transponder is to be removed from Z-21 and Alaska by force, even the Liberty Police. Exceptions are made for Order ships. Escort them out of the system as soon as possible.
