Guten Tag,
Here is the details of patrol with assistance of SEK-Mondsee under authority of Inspekteurin von Thielau.
Patrol started as it usually does, in Berlin orbit. We begin to sweep the lanes for activity before eventually returning to orbit due to a large surge in traffic. In orbit we come in contact with a large transport convoy belonging to the "Maquis", apparently some sort of fringe group in Gallia. Their ships passed manifest and weaponry inspections, and were treated as foreign civil traffic. We escorted them to the Koeln-Zurich border, where we saw them off. They had apparently captured a Unioner, who was taken in for processing.
There was an incident with a ship belonging to the "Unione Corse", another Gallic associated group, during the end of the escort. They were quite quick to decry the Maquis ships as terrorists, though they were not clean themselves in the scope of our law, hauling illicitly registered munitions. They ejected the cargo moments before interdiction. The cargo was seized, fine levied and they were sent back to Gallia empty-handed. We destroyed most of the munitions in a pretty explosion, but some has been confiscated and delivered to the lockup. We may need to look further into the intricacies of House Gallia's interior affairs after this.
After that escort, we started heading back to Neu Berlin to lock up the secured munitions and criminals. Before we hit Stuttgart there was another convoy, this time several freelance haulers with aluminum ore. We stopped them, inspected them, and secured a Bundschuh operative who had been picked up by them. They were then permitted to proceed.
Finally, we headed back through Stuttgart and Neu Berlin. A suspicious contact with unusual jamming capabilities, roughly the size of a gunship, skirted the perimeter and shot into the lanes. We were not in a position to handle it, and we proceeded to Berlin for debriefing and offload.
