I could best describe the days activities as The Good, The Bad and The Ugly.
The Good was in the fearless bravery displayed by Officer Riza Williams. She went headlong against a Rheinland Military Cruiser that somehow found its way into Texas. Rumors suggested that he was drunker than a college frat brat at a midnight kegger. Anyways, I followed Officer Williams towards Bering Jumpgate to chase after a perpetrator trying to carry cargo into Rhienland, when the German Cruiser was spotted. It began a systematic slaughter of several Liberty Navy ships. All the while, Officer Willams and I sat back and watched in horror.
Finally, Officer Williams could stand no more of it, and against better judgement, charged into the fray to take on the cruiser, for the sake of Liberty. I quickly joined in the battle to help where I could. I am happy to say that several Navy and LPI ships soon showed up and made quick work of the German interloper. Unfortunately for Officer Riza, her ship went down. My understanding is that her pod was picked up and brought to safety.
Here are a couple pics of the battle.
After the destruction of RNC-Lawbringer, I moved on to New York system to assist Officer Aiden Maggard in patrol. It was then, at Planet Manhattan, that we came upon The Ugly. Two miscreants, Sean1 and Rogue, spent their time trading cardimine back and forth. Sean1 was probably nothing more than an immature teenager who stole his daddy's key to the starflea. Rogue, however was much more dangerous. He was flying around in a ship that was so badly damaged, flames and smoke were billowing from several hull ruptures. Besides that, he was acting irratically and rammed into my ship repeatedly. Officer Maggard did the only thing that could be done. For the safety of everyone involved, he eliminated the threat.

Finally, after ridding ourselves of bad rubbish, Officer Maggard and I continued our patrol. That was when we chanced upon a notorious outcast by the name of Celadon.Gryphon. Definitely, the Bad. This scourge of humanity had the audacity to besmirch the good name of the LPI. He openly mocked Officer Maggard. But worst of all, he spewed out some slanderous remarks about how inept LPI rookies are. I couldn't take it any longer. Screw the anger management classes. I barely waited for Officer Maggard to engage, and then unleashed everything my little Patriot had to offer on his sorry rear-end. Unfortunately, Officer Maggard's ship eventually succumbed to the missles that Celadon.Gryphon continually unleashed. (Personal Note: Missle attacks are for people who can't hit the broad side of a planet with a real gun. Must look into purchasing a few). After Officer Maggard went down, the Outcast came after me. With my guns overheated, and all my mines exhausted, I too finally succumbed to those dastardly missiles. Fortunately, the pods of Officer Maggard and I were picked up and brought to safety.

It was definitely a learning experience and I look forward from benefiting from the fine examples shown by my fellow officers in the LPI.
