Wittmann reporting.
While being on patrol around Berlin, I got tipped off by some bounty hunter speaking in an unusual language, reporting a Volksfront fighter dangerously close to New Berlin. Me and a suddenly appearing Gefreiter, Kai Heilner headed out to assess the threat, soon spotting the mentioned fighter sitting near the trade lane.
In a minute or so, two more of the terrorists appeared, one of them being the highest ranking Volksfront party member known, Daniel Boehmer. Little could I hesitate with such a level of threat being in Berlin orbit, I gave the Gefreiter orders to open fire.
The opposing force was rather well trained, clearly we were facing the Volksfront's elite, so we had to involve a Kruger patrol vessel offering his aid. During the engagement, I was a preferred target of the enemies, there was at least one of the enemy force constantly shooting me with more or less success.
The outcome was a complete victory. After taking down one of the Bundschuh members and severely damaging the other two, one near to destruction, the enemy force retreated. The Kruger vessel got hit, but I compensated the repair costs by transferring two million credits to the account of the pilot.
Regarding Heilner; I was generally satisfied by his combat performance but noticed him being too autonomous. It was partially beneficial that he started selecting targets, given that I was under constant fire, but at the end he started protesting for me ordering him to let the hostiles flee. Being in doubt that I could convince him of the necessity of my orders, I redirected him to Admiral Rall. At least the Moselle will be cleaned by someone else today.

Hauptmann Michael Wittmann,
Rheinwehr Kreuzer Abteilung 101 "Seydlitz".
