>
> Gentlemen,
>
> Promotions:
> I have been remiss in my congratulating of various personnel on their hard work and dedication to the
> Hessian cause. The following officers have advanced in rank recently for their efforts, and are to be
> congratulated next time you see them at The Mill officers' club on Vogtland.
> • Conrad Egon promoted to Leutnant
> • Elmkin promoted to Leutnant
>
> Operations:
> • 30-day ceasefire with Workers Front [W] -- the Admiral has approved a ceasefire with this Unioner
> faction in light of RHA having bigger fish to fry. Normal hostilities will resume on Dec-01 of this year.
> Any [W] ships found in Dresden or in the connecting Omegas is to be engaged, but nowhere else.
> • Reduced operations in New Berlin -- As of this posting, operations in New Berlin will be reduced so
> as to focus our efforts more heavily in the Omegas. While [RM] is obviously still a target along with the
> shipping that passes through the northern parts of Rheinland, RHA pilots are directed to spend more time
> keeping the nearby Omegas clear. Recent incursions by Corsairs into Rheinland are considered a bigger
> threat than [RM] at this time. However, this does not mean abandon Dresden and Vogtland to the RM!
> Repel them when possible, raid shipping in quick in/out strikes, et cetera. Just avoid large scale or long
> term engagements with them as much as possible at this time.
>
> Merger
> As most of you are aware, the infamous [Ghost] Brigade is back in Red Hessian space and working closely
> with RHA. What many of you may not realize is that they are joining the RHA as an official squadron of
> the faction. Their independent militia origins posed a small complication to their joining RHA which is being
> addressed by allowing them to keep their [Ghost] transponders and to operate nearly autonomously. They
> will follow the basic structure and operational orders of the RHA but will have more leeway to interpret
> those orders and carry the fight to the enemy at their commander's discretion.
>
> A short history and background on the Ghosts will be made available within a few days ((will be posted
> in the Disco Roleplay area)). This will help explain who they are and why they're back, for those who are
> too young to remember or were out of the command loop at the time of their initial departure.
>
> Major Nightblade and all Ghost officers, welcome to the Red Hessin Army!
>
> Personnel Roster & Equipment
> A new listing of RHA's pilots and equipment is being compiled. Every pilot is charged with taking care of
> his own data, Ghost pilots included. See my signature for a link to that information stack.
>
> See you boys at the o-club.
