RE: Report- [BHG]Ordronaux, September 26th, Manhattan, New York
[Summary: Ordronaux infected with Nomads was sterilized and docked at Norfolk. Recruit Toliman has relived himself from active duty until further notice or until given clearance by Commanding Officers.]
Pardon the delay, I was put on mandatory bed rest. Making my report now:
During my patrol arround NY, particularly security arround Manhattan, myself and two other (independent) LN officers began receiving strange transmissions from the "Ordronaux" orbiting Manhattan. Shortly thereafter, all aboard abandoned ship and make way to the Manhattan surface. During their decent, their captain, from the life pod, informed me that their ship had been taken over by Nomads. Quickly, I informed ground forces to secure and quarantine the landing pad. It was at this time the infected ship began to leave Manhattan orbit. I then issued a general statement along the lines as follows:
"To all ships within NY, Be advised, the Ordronaux is believed to be taken by Nomads. Civilian vessels, please steer clear of this ship. All battle ready ships are free to engage Ordronaux on sight."
A LNS ship responded to the scene and engaged the ship. At one point, the infected ship ceased fire and held position about 5 K from Manhattan by the trade lane to West Point. I approached the Ordronaux and made scans. No bios forms were detected by my scanners but the ship had decompressed. I began to prepare to board the ship. I made sure to secure my Bio Suit, an extra canister of air and light arms, for protection. After prep, I began decompression procedures. Approximately 5 minutes, I was aboard the ship.
My entry point was from the cargo bay, I then began to proceed towards the bridge. Upon entering the bridge I tried to begin manual shutdown of all systems, however, the ship engaged its engines and continued arround New York. At this point I began to tried to regain control of the ship, but I am not completely familiar with BHG technology.
Approximately 10 minutes after, the engines stopped about 6k from Norfolk Shipyard. I assumed that I had finally gained control of the ship, however the ship board computer began emergency purge procedures. Quickly, I made my way to the remaining escape pod and launched. I initiated my homing beacon and my fighter arrived shortly thereafter. I then boarded my ship began sterilization. After this process, I attached a grapple to the ship, and with the aid of a passing ship, towed the Ordronaux to Norfolk for inspection and further sterilization. I proceeded to Battleship Missouri and went to Medical for checkup and observation. During this time, Missouri and Norfolk detached themselves from the network, save for emergency comms.
Doctors report no anomalies were found during tests and no evidence of nomadic infection. However, I will be put on surveillance for 3 days with bed rest. After which, I am allowed planetary leave on Manhattan until further notice. I am currently writing this report on the second day of bed rest, I will be departing for Manhattan tomorrow at 14:00 (Monday).
The doctors on Manhattan reported no anomalies and no evidence of nomadic infection, crew will be put under 3 day's surveillance then released.
Comments: I feel that I may have overstepped my bounds as a recruit, and if that is the case, I apologize. However, in my defence, I acted with the interest of the safety of Liberty and its citizens in mind. I also feel that boarding the Ordronaux was poor judgement and a very bad idea in the first place. If there are any more questions, feel free to contact me.
On another note, I'd like to know who is my commanding officer. Of course I'll obey all orders that are given to me by the Officers of the LN. I just would like to know, who I directly report to.
