Guten Tag, commanders!
When I was returning from the mission from Hamburg system, I spotted the pirate Gunboat near trade lane between Hamburg Jump Gates and Dortmund Station. In a few minutes scaners showed incoming fighter of Wild. There was long discussion. Finally I ordered them to leave Rheinland space. At the same moment reinforcements arrived. Heinrich Schmid is a freelancer of Rheinland Millitary. When I ordered Wild and Pirate to leave Rheinland space they unexpectedly attacked. Heinrich was in fight with pirate Gunboat. Soon pirate began to run, but he caught get him and killed. I continued to fight with Wild. He tryed to run, but just in time arrived Heinrich. We caught him and killed.

Message:
Guten Tag, Kameraden.
Hereby I will submit my first patrol report.
##Part 1, Patrol with Flieger Hans Adler
Through secured commchannels me and Herr Adler decided to start a patrol from New Berlin.
Once there Frau Bommel from the RFP gave us an advice that many unauthorized transports of military vehicles can be found in munich.
So we decided that our first task should be to ensure that no transport will break the embargo.
Once we've been there not much happened, we stopped some suspicious vessels but everything was in order.
Then the cruiser RNC-Gepard sent us an emergency call that they need fighter support against several SCRA and Hessian bombers in Omega-15.
Unfortunatly no higher ranked officer was available at the moment so we could not help them in Omega-15. We decided to go to Stuttgart so the Capital ships could go there and we could help them there.
However, they did not need our help anymore when we arrived in Stuttgart and we thought about simply patroling in Stuttgart, we used the tradelane to planet Stuttgart but then an accident happened.
Herr Adler rammed my Ship in the tradelane and his ship got destroyed, I tractored in his tractor pod in and brought him to the Battleship Karlsruhe to wait for his vessel.
However, Herr Adler had some appointments and we stopped our patrol at this point.
We really should think about using our own technologies with transportation issues, those tradelanes are really unsave..
##Part 2, Distress call from Heinrich Schmid
One day later, and well yes I am taking it as one patrol because in part 1 nothing special happened.
Well, one day later I've been patroling New Berlin and everythign was in order.
Then Herr Heinrich Schmid sent me a distress call, a unioner caught him near the Alster Shipyard and he called me in to help him against the terrorist.
Very well. once I arrived there I saw that they've been fighting a fair fight and I did not interfere.
I kept watching the scene and Heinrich Schmid started losing, he told me to help him.
Well, I told the Unioner to move away or that I will start helping Herr Schmid, well he did not listen but then some mines from the Unioner and Herr Schmid have hit the Unioner and his vessel was destroyed.
Then I also heard some interferences coming from the unioner but well that had to be a technical issue.
##Part 3, Troubles with traders
Some hours later I continued with my patrol, I've been monitoring the traffic from New Berlin to Stuttgart, then I caught the ship Necrobot with wrong Papers on his Uruz, I told him to get proper papers and that I will follow him until he has them.
Once we entered the Bonn station he startedfiring on me without any warning.
At first this and at second his friend "Torgo" did the same.
I started shooting back on Necrobot and he started yielding for his life.
So I ordered them to pay a fine of 4 Million credits for attacking military personell, insulting military personal, and undermining military authority in Rheinland (They told that the RM has no authority in Rheinland..) and also for not following orders.
Those traders told me that they are bankrupt at the moment and their loaded tobacco and their ships would be the only things they posses at the moment.
They where trying to flee but I stopped them, the RNC-Malice also helped me nailing them to the place and I called Leutnant Viktor Amott in to solve this problem.
He was so fair that he let Necrobot get proper papers and Torgo was also unharmed after swearing that he will never interfere again with the authorities of Rheinland.
Seems its time to check capital ship list. Yesterday, during fast patrol, near planet Stuttgart, I found military battlezhip, but with Republican shipping papers and IFF. I tried to contackt captain of this ship, but he used unknown language to respond. I asked him to use Siriu's language, but he keep talking things, I dont understand.
Ship name: Event~Horizon
Class: Battleship.

After last battle with Liberty Navy in Hamburg I lost gun from my ship. After one day of rest I went to by another one in Kloen. Then I returned to Planet New Berlin. I stopped near it and started to scan incoming ships. After few minutes from Planet New Berlin undocked pilot with 8 points of Cardamin in his cargo bay. I ordered him to stop, drop Cardamin and pay penalty for illegal carrying of it. He did everything, but didn't pay penalty. He attacked. In battle he killed himself by mine faster than I tryed to kill him by myself. Here is some photo.
****This is copy of responding message about capital zhip with wrong papers****
Guten tag.
This is Martin Stamek.
Im only flebwegel, but I think, I can respond on this mesage, because I had direct contack with this zhip.
As you have seen, zhip had not just unproper papers, but even not active IFF. Fortunatly, we managed to setup communications with captain. As we managed to determin- there was some kind of mistaken in schedule on construction yards, und zhip ocasionaly launched with wrong papers. Captain was ready to do everything to fix this isue, so situation is under control.
I can ensure you, that this ocasion will be fixed to normal in nearest time.
And here I would like to give additional information: This ship had no weapons, zero combat/defence copabilities. I was on board of partol gunship RNC-Vril, as learner, so i was awere of actions happened there. Gunship's captain helped to fix those issuses, and proteck battleship from possible attacks. There was also Flieger and Gefreiter, so situation was under control indeed.
Stamek out.

Guten Tag officiers of die Rheinwehr und mein superiors. I appologize again for the neglect in uploading mein reports. This file is going to be fairly large und might have to be uploaded in chunks. I have at least fourteen reports in here. Report Nine:
To start off mein report, there were reports of Corsair capital vessels located in der Hamburg system. Our interdiction wing was a makeshift group of two Polezei und der RNC-Panzerschiff. Eventually der RNC-Urd assisted us und we destroyed das invaders. Das group consisted of an Osiris class und a Legate class.
To continue mein report, there was a small incident with a trader who was accused of attempting to flee Rheinland law. After consulting der situation with Herr Wesen, Herr Hetzer, und Herr Bauer I managed to convince die civilian it would be in his best interests to be arrested. I personally escorted die civilian to Vierlande however this of course was a while ago, I'm sure he's gone through due process by now.
Concluding this report there was a slaver who attempted to sneak through die Vaterland, luckily for him there was an Ion Storm that interfered with mein interception.
This report shall be a bit shorter as there are only two incidents of note. First our small wing intercepted what appeared to be a Bundschuh affiliated pirate. We destroyed him as he proved to be uncooperative. Secondly we encountered a strange vessel in Omega Seven, but die Kruger at der mining site said he was simply experiencing IFF difficulties.
This is a small report. Our patrol wing intercepted a hessian fighter who was soon assisted by a Reaver. After disposing of the two we retired to Braunschweig for a training session.
After dealing with a small pirate der Major General Kaiser lead a small wing of fighters und bombers into Libertonian territory. There we destroyed multiple enemy capital vessels.
This report is somewhat long, as it details quite a few events that occurred throughout the day. First up, we encountered a Hel class Cruiser carrying quite a few Rheinwehr Personnel, luckily we managed to negotiate the release of das prisoners for letting him leave die system. Later two libertonian capitals were spotted in Neu Berlin, a dreadnaught und battlecruiser. With die help of RNC-Forseti they were both destroyed. Und finally a patrol encountered a group of Hessians, unfortunately die freelancer who decided to aid us did not survive die encounter.
This report is for Oberkommando eyes only. Details of this report are classified. I accompanied Fahnrich Dermen on a scouting mission into die backdoor of Liberty.
This report only contains two points of note. However one of them was with... something from a nightmare. The first incident was a DSE captain, apparently oblivious to Rheinland law. He was corrected, fined, und his contraband destroyed. The second incident was with a.. thing. Words do not do it justice. I will let my guncam shots do the talking.
Another short report herren. A junker who was obviously attempting to smuggle copper to das Libertonians, he somehow docked Planet Stuttgart's docking ring.
A small report. A few weeks ago das Hessians launched a rather large invasion force into Neu Berlin. Of course they were no match for our superior training, tactics, und numbers. Here is a log of some of the capitals I personally destroyed.
Another incursion into Libertonian space, this time right into their Capital. Unfortunately mein guncam suffered a near direct hit und only two images could be recovered.
Some foolish Libertonian captains brought their ships in for der slaughter. We destroyed these invaders quite well. A couple Hessian capitals thought they could catch us unaware after we dispatched das Libertonians. They met the fiery wrath of our guns.
A small patrol report. We encountered the thugs known as Rorry's Renegades undocking from a Junker station. No surprise there. Und also a Reaver did the same.
Und mein final report of the batch. Some Libertonian capital vessels decided to invade our home after pushing back a hessian strike force. We greated them in the tradition Rheinland welcome.
Guten tag.
Few days ago we made small strike to Libertinian system Texaz. Frau Austerlitz was leading zis operation. I came with small late, but she sayed that Im right up for a work. While comming to zeir pozition, Azzult battlecruiser was detected nhear planet Houstone. But he made nothing... Soon I came to frau leutenant and gefreiter, BDM agent contacked us to offer zome help. Right after zis, a Libertonian polizei IFF civilian craft with ze Freelancer ID came und started to demand information about uz. Rigt there, another capitole ship came to help. Zeir words were mostly strange, like I never did saw zat capitan of das capitol zhip waz working only for himself, or its just we have adquate discipline in Military.
Unfortunatly, guncam shot of ze civilian craft deztruction, who decided to aid Liberty, and few more shots were decoded unproperly...
But I got good picture, where capitol ship goez down. 4 Wrath VHF killed zeir proud of cruiser'z dezign. Und crew of zat zhip waz acting very uneffective.
Danke to frau Austerlits' coordintation and our performance, no loses on our side

Guten abend Piloten. Today we engaged in a quite prolonged and exhausting operation that lasted throughout most of the day. I started the patrol accompanied by Hauptmann Schmitt, Fähnrich von Gross und a Marinenachrichtendienst Gunboat piloted by Captain Schmid. Right away, Captain Schmid intercepted a Hessian gunboat which we chased down from Stuttgart into Dresden, and eventually, destroyed.
We were then joined by several more pilots from the Sekundärflotte und decided to "shake up the Libertonians", as the Captains called it. Later on, Vize Admiral Weissman accompanied with Gefreiter Fuchs joined us on the field. We regrouped in Texas und assaulted the Northern Part of the system. At first, there was little resistance and we managed to disrupt the supply lines in the system for quite a while. Just as we were about to leave, their fleet, consisting of several dreadnaughts, carriers, battlecruisers und snubs, uncloaked behind us.
We stood our ground und after an exhausting battle, we managed to defeat their fleet. Our capitals tore apart through their big ships und we, together with members from the 51st division, managed to bring down their snubs, gunboats and cruiser. All in all, quite a successful endeavor! In the addendum I am attaching the images my onboard camera managed to snap during the battle.

[font=Verdana]SUBMITTER:Hauptmann Niklas Keller, Rheinland Military Oberkommando SUBJECT:Disciplinary Action
Achtung, Gefreiter Klaus Steiner.
Your behavior on the field is less than satisfactory or even wanted. Steiner, according to your recorded flight time and motivation to achieve said, you shouldn't be acting like the Kanzler himself when you are on the field. Today, you repeatedly ignored requests from the Marinenachrichtendienst officer present with us on the field, you literally yawned into the group communications while sitting in space even though you had tasks to do on two sides of Rheinland, you openly ignored the chain of command and the warnings that I personally gave you. In the end you did perform the task I gave you, but not with the desired attitude. I told you it would come to this if you kept going, Gefreiter.
These are your disciplinary measures. In the following week, you are prohibited to fly anything but a Valkyrie heavy fighter. You are to log 7 hours of flight time in said week, in said ship. This measure is in effect from this time.
If you are seen on the field in anything but said ship or if you fail to complete this task, you will be demoted to the rank of Flieger and you will be scrubbing the toilets on the Strausberg with a toothbrush.
This is a warning to all of you. The Rheinland Military has a long standing tradition of discipline, honor, fairness and cunning in battle. Das Oberkommando will not let pilots egos get in the way of this tradition. Things will change, for the better. Rheinland WILL be restored to its former glory.
Guten tag piloten! My first patrol wearing the proud Rheinland insignia was under herr Keller.
We did a sweep of the Omega-7 system, without encountering any trouble. A Buro Der Marineintelligenz officer, herr Schmid encountered an Outcast in Omega-3, but, to the best of my knowledge, the situation was defused.
Me and Fl. Verner Kaisser returned to New Berlin, where we came up across an unresponisve trader. Verner disrupted his cruise and went for his shields. I decided to help, and, right as we had dropped his shields and about to stop firing, waiting for a response, a Rheinland cruiser engaged and ripped the Big Dragon to shreads. Me and Fl. Kaisser sincerely apologize for our actions at this point.
After a sweep of the Munich system without trouble, our patrol was over.
