Just a quick report today, as I must return to repair my Guardian.
A pirate with transponder SlakJawReaper was spotted closing in to Fort Bush. I moved to intercept the pirate after he subtly threatened a Bounty Hunter for his ship. He disregarded my most generous offers to leave the area and after that, he shot at some LPI officers on their daily patrol. He then refused to comply with the arrest warrant and so I forced his ship out from under him.

The fight was brief, as these bombers seem to have little effectiveness against my Guardian anymore.
Almost immediately after that pirate was dealt with, another one flew by Fort Bush at break-neck speeds. Fortunately, I had backup this time and the pirate didn't get far before I questioned him.
Seems he didn't have any weapons on his stinky gunboat, so I decided to let him off with a warning to get that ship changed. Although, I think we'll be hearing from him on the battlefield sometime soon...
Immediately after the situation was dealt with at Fort Bush, LSF Agent Filmore informed me that some Nomads were lurking around Pitts. After a quick and shoddy repair at Ft. Bush, I went to investigate. Unfortunately, soon after I arrived, my Guardian simply shut down. I managed to limp my way back to Pittsburg and am currently there attempting to repair my ship.
However, I managed to obtain this one guncam image of what appears to be the aliens.

--el-... hel--... HELLO!! Oh. You now read me...
Hi there, folks. If you guys don't know me, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Leonardo Jurado H. Tigre.
Well, I guess I shouldn't keep you waiting, so I'll come out bluntly: I am requesting for my recommission into the LN after 3-4 months of Navy Reserve Status.
For those that still don't know me, then I'll explain further. I was transferred to the Navy Reserve because of an internal incident that left me almost without any money, a ship, a place to live in, and with a... friend... in critical condition. If you guys want proof, here it is: PROOF... Look at Leonardo_Tigre
But now that I have 20M in credits, a Mammoth-class vessel I'm willing to use as a new Liberty Trading Ship (I was thinking of LNT-Vagabond II, from the previous ship I first christened), my estate now repaired, and that my friend has fully recovered, I am now planning to "come back to the fire", so to speak.
Although this is the main reason why I am transmitting this message, if there are anyone of you that knows me, then you guys realize I'm still knew to the army, and I do not wish to blotch any rules, wishing to know the proper manner in which to recommission myself.
But... I really wonder... am I still in the LN...? Sorry... It's just that some thoughts arouse, about me already permanently... "liquidated" from the force.
Whether or not this is true, suffice to say I would like to come back and serve Liberty once again. If I'm denied from doing so, at least tell me the exact reasons why, so that I would understand fully without any bias or prejudice.

"Good morning Admiral.As you are aware of my civilian business enterprise,it has become necessary to request your approval of access to / through the **CLASSIFIED** area for any "Gafwmn" flagged ships.

The moment I undocked from Riverside, my patrol got started with a bang. Three LRF operatives were waiting outside, seemingly doing nothing. As I questioned them, I noticed that each of them had several Navy officers on board. I kindly asked for them back in exchange for their temporary freedom. They simply replied "No". After that point, I got a little annoyed and chased the bastards to Ontario.
Once there, Cochrane base was spotted, a known hideout for Lane Hackers. As well as that, a weird little ship started spouting all kinds of coded nonsense over the system. As I moved to Battleship Ottowa, yet another callsign appeared on sensors - This time it was Coalition. Seems Mr Katz has been hard at work spouting propaganda over the system of Ontario.
As I was about to call for backup, a "Special Agent" named Robert Medford, had a little chat with me. Seems that he and his "Red cell" have plans for Mr Katz. I tested him to see whether or not he could actually be a special agent. He barely passed the test.
Verification of Mr Redfords involvement in the Navy, his rank and information about this "Red Cell"
Orders regarding the treatment of these "LRF" operatives
I'm not going to send rookies out there without critical knowledge of what they're suppose to do when encountering certain criminal/terrorist elements and mysterious "Red cell" operatives whom disclose nothing about the situation.
I have some troubling news. I received word that a large Navy warship entered Omicron Minor, unknown class type. I fixed my ship transponder to send out a fake name, and headed to Minor to check if it was still alive. I managed to sneak into Minor without meeting any patrols. After some flying I managed to find the Navy ship, the LNS-Hyperion... unmooring from an Order Osiris class Battleship.
I went to confirm that this vessel was a Navy vessel, and I found it was. A fully armed and crewed Navy Dreadnought. It seems this vessel has turned to the Order. I can find no other explanation for this vessel unmooring from the Osiris.
Redline here. been a while since my last report, but I`ve been busy. The Fires hasn`t seen action for a while since Alaska is pretty quiet these days. if she is needed elsewhere, let the order befall me.
now, to report my current activities. 2 days ago I assisted admiral Hale in shooting some Rheinlanders to pieces. I nailed 1 in a small furrball.
today I saved an Universal ship that was being attacked by a Sabre and (of course) a Tridente. I laid some hurting on the Sabre and the Univesral ship managed to dock on Pittsburgh.
I've run some patrols also. at Norfolk I was talking to an engineer. the subject came to the Liberator. He convinced me that it is an awesome little ship. so I went down to Houston to see if I could find one. There was one sitting unused in the hangar. So I comisioned it. I must say, you do NOT want to fly that thing when you have just eaten. 30 seconds flat and my breakfast was against the screen and my pancreas was sitting upside down in my gut. what agility. awesome.
Then I got a call from Norfolk: a gunboat needed a captain. its current captain was shoved down a flight of stairs in the red light district on Manhattan. he won`t be piloting anything or a while.
So I took command of said gunboat. I just love ships with big, mean forward guns. she's called the Valley of Kings. I took her and the crew for a spin when we ran into a tridente near pittsburgh. without as much as a cardi-cough it opened fire on us. we returned fire and blew it to hell. I need some training in gunboat combat though. took us ages to bring down the shield.
but she`s combat ready and at the navy's disposel.
Ahem, Redline here. just as we were having a party onboard the Fires of Liberation the damn Rheinlanders invade! I mean, c'mon!
Did I say party? I mean fire drill. yeah. firedrill. with lots firewater hahaha... ouch... my head.
*hic*
sowe, eh... we, like, went to Tex-ass or whatever that place is called... the one... the one with the planet... y'know. anyway, there was this huge green thing, se we started firing on it. turned out to be a nebula. can ya dig it? hahahaha
*hic*
so we moved along and found that Rheinland battleship, between the lanes headed to, eh, someplace. I'm sure. I mean, hey, they don't put them lanes there t'go nowhere eh? that'd be SO stupid y'know.
... what was I saying?
'shut up! I said shut you arsewipes! can't ya see I'm filing a report back here? huh?!'
so we fired on that nebula.. no wait. I already said that. I think.
hell, we saw that battleship eventually and started shooting it. the sooner it exploded, the sooner we could party again eh? I mean, get back to our combat manouvers or whatever I said we were supposed ta be doin'. some other things... eh ships, I mean were also present to wipe that neb- ship, thing out.
we didn`'t lose the shield once cuz Cloud was COMPLETELY wasted. puked all all over my seat he did. hahaha!
'ya hear that Cloud? I'm making an ass outta ya!'
*shouting in the backrgound*
'ya spilled beer over me you stupid-'
anyway.... I, eh... uploaded the footage from the fight n'stuff. see for- whoa...
don't listen to the background music by the way. I ASSURE you I requested trance and strippers and got neither... damn it all to hell.
see... for.. yerslef.. self I mean. jeez. when will the bridge shtop spinning?

Dear Sirs and Madam,
today it was a very intresting Patrol for the Apache.
First we went to Texas to ensure the Texan Blockade
Liberty Law 4
As our nation is currently at war with Rheinland, all trading traffic toward Rheinland or coming from it is now to be halt and turn back. Pilots attempting to break the blockade will be terminated on sight.
and
Violation of the Texan Blockade; Defined as attempting to pass through the blockade to deliver illegal goods from or to Rheinland.The violator has the following choices:
-Drop the illegal goods to travel further
-Turn back in order to keep the goods.
Failure to comply will result in death.
After the 15 hours in the Texas System we then go to Classified Area and restock our goods on Board.
After undocking from the Jumpgate in Zone 21, this happens:
and a few minutes later that:
They all come from Classified Area to Zone 21 light up their cruise engines and i try to bring the hole group off, but then:
Kukla tried next time to breach and he has the luck to be out of my weapons range and went to Classified Area...
So he has to come back at a time and i order my crew to get a position near the gate and the Apache stay 500 m from the jumpgate away.
A few hours later i got informed of a Ordership in Colorado, we still hold our position and then the Gunboat Furious Absolution shown up on scanners and after contact we both travel to Colorado.
There we find the [[1st]LSCA-Ft.Louisbourg and after the Tradelane Areas and the Jumpholes and surrounding 14k range were checked we still seee nothing but on the System Transmitter we hear still the Captain speaking and then he was seeked by the [1st]LSCA-Ft.Louisbourg using the Jumphole to Illinois.
After that i return to Norfolk Shipyard and dock there to end the Patrol.

Greetings navy/police.
I would like to inform you of my nearly death experiance that I had today.
And no this was not done by a pirate. The story goes as followed.
I was on potrol in New York. And when I was at fort bush a pirate showed up.
This pirate first ran away, but it returned and engaged. Me and a other navy pilot shot back.
Its sad to report the navy vessel was destroyed but luckly it was ejected. The fight continued.
I succeded in killing the pirate bomber and brought the navy pilot to fort bush.
When I was done and left Fort Bush a nomad bug showed up and didnt understand the words leave or die.
And now comes the main part of my story.
A liberty navy dreadnaught showed up named McDonals comapany. When it got close to the nomad it started to open fire afer he also gave the nomad a warning. The nomad evaded much of the fire but took a few hits. it tried to hide behind me and since i was getting some coffee in the back of my cockpit I didnt see it. The liberty dread didnt hold fire to evade friendly fire. But instead it used both of its heavy razors and shot!. My vessel got hit and exploded. My escape pod got fired and i spilled my coffee.
I was shoked to be suddendly in my pod. And when I heared the captain of the dread say "why didnt you move?". I headed to fort bush and lucky they seemed to have a spare manta, they sayed it was from a criminal and I could use it if I payed a couple of credits for it. So I gave them the credits and hopped on my new manta. I undocked and ask the navy captain of the Mc Donalds to watch his fire. He found this none of his concern. he also refused to give me a refund for the lose off ammo and the new manta i had to get.
This made me a little mad that he refused to give me just 300k.
Now my question is, can someone talk to this captain of the Mc Donalds companie?
And please tell him to let his gunners first have some practise before going in a combat situation.
But this captain i dont understand he got a captain of such a ship in the first place.
I dont have anything more to say. I have made a photo of my logs screen so you can see what happend.
