Good Day,
As you may be aware the Akhetaten taskforce has been re-deployed.
We are therefore going to be deploying several vessels to fill the patrol routes that were being previously filled by Task Force vessels. Deployment orders are as follows:
LNS Des Moines and her escorts will be deployed to the Texas system and will be expected to primarily patrol Texas, Bering and Hudson. The LNS Vindictive shall move between New York and Texas on an as needed basis to provide assistance to LIBCENTCOM and the Des Moines should it be required. Expected deployment time of three month endurance.
The LNS Kansas and escorts will patrol between Colorado and New York with a primary focus being on the upper part of the Colorado system where the ship will be acting as a border defence vessel.
LNS Milwaukee and LNS Baltimore will load supplies and be prepared to deploy to all of these Systems on an as needed basis.
SNUBcraft currently based in the Texas, New York and Colorado systems are to step up patrols.
Primary mission profile for all craft is Anti-Smuggler operations. Although, all vessels should respond to any activity they encounter appropriately.
Captain Wilkes please acknowledge your orders by return transmission.
