Good Afternoon,

My name is Hector Booth, signed employee of Shackleton Operations Group, a client signatory corporation to Bristol Constructions and Manufacturing.

Bristol C&M has come into ownership of a Judicator class Cruiser, named the B|-BCV-Endeavor, through our patrols in the Vespucci system and due to the less than significant damage we feel that it might make for an especially valuable piece of material to study. Should the vessel be even less damaged than we thing, it may even be brought into service with our fleet.

I’ve already discussed the matter with Verteidigungsminister Steube here, and we’ve agreed on a number of stipulations.

1. The Judicator class Cruiser will:

- Inform Rheinland security forces for the transit.
- Be escorted by vessels of the RFP, BMD, or Rheinwehr during transits through Rheinland.
- Likely embark an oversight team be during this period.

2. The Judicator class Cruiser shall halt at Oder or Alster Shipyard for the purpose of refuel and resupply. The halt shall take no longer than as necessary for refuel or resupply.

As such, I would like to discuss the precise specifics of escorts through Rheinland with you. I would propose this route for this initial escort.

1. The cruiser with a small tow escort would move from Vespucci to Omega-55 and Omega-7
2. The Rheinwehr escort could commence at the Omega-7 -> Stuttgart Jump Gate or at Ulm Border Station
3. Cruiser and escort would follow the trade lane through Stuttgart, New Berlin, and Hamburg
4. Cruiser and escort would halt at Alster Shipyard to satisfy condition two
5. The escort would end at the Hamburg -> Bering Jump Gate

Throughout the tow, Endeavor will keep maximum practicable distance to all civil and military installations and vessels in order to limit the effects of any potential engineering casualties or malfunctions.

I am more than willing to discuss any additional stipulations deemed necessary by the Rheinwehr and look forward to hearing back from you soon.
