Addressed to the Captain of the LNS-Stalingrad

[Geeky]

On the desk of an office clerk at Norfolk Shipyard, a message icon starts blinking. Seeing the sender, he quickly forwards the message to his superiors, and it continues up the rank ladder until it hits the right person.

I will keep myself, my crew, and my ship as far away from liberty as possible until this is all sorted. Please contact me again when you have regained your sanity, sirs.

Oh, and to save you guys the trouble, we have rebooted the computer systems of the Stalingrad, as of 0900 today, we are out of the naval warship mainframe, and all remote access has been disabled, as well, the identity beacon has been forceably removed.

Somehow, I doubt I will ever see you again.

Have a nice day.

Captain Dmitry Volkov,
Signing off for the last time.

LNS-BB397, LNS-Stalingrad.
