Command,
Overview:
The operational sectors have been notably calm lately, with minimal activities along the borders. Occasional encounters with minor threats have been effectively managed through prompt apprehension by the police forces.
Mission Execution:
Having returned from extended duty away from the home base, I resumed control operations over several previously established patrol routes. The mission commenced with a departure from Norfolk, followed by a comprehensive system sweep of New York. Subsequently, I proceeded to Pennsylvania to assess any potential insurgent activities or piracy threats.
Encounter and Engagement:
During the patrol in Pennsylvania, I encountered a convoy comprising Bretonian ships and an Orbital Spa and Cruise liner under attack by two pirate vessels. Intervention was executed alongside a bounty hunter gunship. The combined forces successfully neutralized the threats, ensuring the safety of civilian operations within the sector.
Conclusion:
Following the engagement, normal patrol routes were resumed without further incident. Our vigilant operations affirm that the homeland remains secure and stable.
Below you will find the guncams and the Blackbox recordings from my ship.

The crew of the Providence extends its apologies for the delay in reporting the recent events within our home space and the outer Sirian region, formerly known as Earhart. At the time, we were still testing the latest iteration of the Providence, previously classified as an "Interdictor" Class Battlecruiser, which has now been decommissioned after extended service. It has been replaced by the current "Fortitude" Bretonian Class Battlecruiser. When we were called to battle, we were awaiting the arrival of additional experimental weaponry to finalize our testing. Nevertheless, our commitment to never leave anyone behind compelled us to engage.
We anticipated facing significant resistance from the opposing forces. However, the reality on the battlefield was beyond words, though I will strive to convey the true scope of the encounter. Following standard procedures, we aligned on the six of our own New Jersey, and the initial phase of the operation proceeded smoothly. We quickly established dominance within Earhart and skillfully tilted the battle in our favor.
Chief Mechanic Joe Williams: " The ships engines performed very well under high level conditions and the main drives have not been affected by the intergalactic jump procedure. All reading showed normal even under minimal damage. Reading were much better then the standard usage charts for our own ships which we has been quite the surprise for us. We can confirm that the ship has been performing over the expected."
Chief Gunnery Sargent Almira Knox: " The new armaments provided to the Providence have behaved over what we have expected. The new loadout we have been given is quite the miracle and we were more then fortunate to have received the chance to work with such state of the art defense systems, that have put quite the major dent into the rather rudimentary Kusarian Fleet."
What follows is our initial assessment and data collected from onboard systems. However, what happened next was beyond our wildest expectations. After exiting Earhart, we arrived in Kepler with the "Argonaut-03" and ended up in a kill box, ambushed by Kusarian Naval Forces and Lane Hackers, who seemed to anticipate our movements. To say the situation became dire is an understatement. I'm doing my best to convey the full scale of what transpired. Although we managed to break free, we sustained repairable damage and found ourselves stranded. Those spared from the chaos regrouped in California and faced the Kusarians in Galileo for a final confrontation.
The operation ultimately was not successful. In the chaos of the kill zone, we lost the "Argonaut-03" to the Lane Hackers, although we inflicted significant damage on both their forces and the Kusarians. We captured some images of the battle, but extensive damages forced us to return to Norfolk for repairs. Some crew members required medical attention, necessitating treatment both from our on-board medical wing and the shipyard's facilities. Despite no loss of life and repairable damage to the vessel, the Providence is combat-ready, completing all necessary testing.
We apologize to the Admiralty for any shortcomings in management. Given the circumstances, we prioritized protecting our assets over the "Argonaut-03." We want to emphasize that the Providence is fully prepared for its next mission. We request deployment to address the consequences of losing the "Argonaut-03." We are committed to completing our duty, whether by returning the vessel or ensuring its proper disposal, as we should have done when first trapped in this predicament.

Command,
I have received an offer to join under the command of Battleship Missouri. It sounds like some smugglers are still slipping through the cracks through the Alaska corridor despite the increased patrols. So... I suppose I will be flying through the blue mist all day.
I want to thank the command of the 46th in helping to initiate me into the Liberty Navy. It has been an honor. I wish you all the best of luck and good hunting!

Commander,
My tour of duty in the Alaska system has left me a bit rusty, I'm afraid. My squadron engaged multiple Rogue and Junker hostiles prior to the arrival of the main sieging fleet. Our total efforts were effective. However, I must report catastrophic damage to my Navy issued Defender. One of the hostiles targeted me and I couldn't shake him. I lead him away from the main fleet which spread the enemies too thin. The rest of the squadron were able to pick the hostiles apart one by one. However, I had no choice but to eject. I assume now that the battle is over, the carcass of the ship is in some smelter by now. I was able to scrub any confidential frequencies and information before my ejection.
During my first hot action sortie, I took off from Manhattan with Commander Sam Gorski to investigate a distress call made by the 1st|LNS-Colorado at 1731, an Overlord-class vessel. A rogue cruiser vessel, Belmont's.Blight, has engaged them. Unfortunately, the battleship had suffered heavy damage and had to withdraw.
We successfully located and pinned down the Rogue warship later at 1733, and after it refused to surrender, we engaged it a minute later. Lieutenant Bo McClow joined us at 1738 and immediately assisted us during the engagement. 46th|Alpha-24 and 1st|ONI-Renegade-4 arrived at the scene later, at 1741. Unfortunately, my Defender was hit, and I had to eject my escape pod from my stricken bird at 1742, which had to be recovered by S&R.
[11.02.2025 17:31:24] 1st|LNS-Colorado's life support went offline thanks to Belmont's.Blight(100%)
[11.02.2025 17:33:02] 46th|Alex.T.Whitefield: I see a big one.
[11.02.2025 17:33:02] Belmont's.Blight: You were too late to save your fellow Officers!
[11.02.2025 17:33:25] 46th|Sam_Gorski: Guess we will have to revenge them then.
[11.02.2025 17:33:25] 46th|Alex.T.Whitefield: Time to avenge them.
[11.02.2025 17:34:03] 46th|Alex.T.Whitefield: Will you surrender or not?
[11.02.2025 17:34:06] Belmont's.Blight: Such confidance!
[11.02.2025 17:34:09] Belmont's.Blight: Never!
[11.02.2025 17:34:16] 46th|Alex.T.Whitefield: As you wish.
[11.02.2025 17:34:23] 46th|Sam_Gorski: Engaging the target !
[11.02.2025 17:34:31] 46th|Alex.T.Whitefield: Let's take this rustbucked down.
[11.02.2025 17:38:14] 46th|Bo.McClow: McClow reporting for duty and ready to assist.
[11.02.2025 17:38:33] 46th|Bo.McClow: Permission to engage, Commander?
[11.02.2025 17:38:42] 46th|Sam_Gorski: Granted
[11.02.2025 17:38:50] 46th|Bo.McClow: Affirmative. Powering weapons.
[11.02.2025 17:39:00] 1st|ONI-Renegade-4: Renegade here join battle
[11.02.2025 17:41:07] 46th|Alpha-24: This looks handled.

Subject: Report - 2/12/835 | Request for discharge
Esteemed Admiralty ,
I am requesting a discharge from the 46th Fleet, due to personal and health reasons, that will not allow me to fly for much more. It goes beyond all words that this situation has created such a deep rift within myself, as I've always considered this to be my second home. I do want to apologize for the lack of information, however I am still doing all the checks and I do not have all the information myself, but it was recommended to at least take six months leave, but that would also not give any guarantee that my condition would be better as to make me fit to fly again.
May we see each others again in fairer winds.

Lieutenant Commander Liberty Navy 46th Fleet
Today I have completed my first full flight with the 46th fleet and it was eventful.
My first flight took me to Cortez where I got reports about Molly ships engaging Liberty Navy and Liberty Police, but by the time I arrived the battle was already over [X][X]
After that, I, along with the rest of our ships, flown by Fleet Admiral Martin Kemp-Smith, Captain Samantha Brown, Commander Sam Gorski, Commander Leroy Fishbourne, Lt. Junior Grade Jenkin Shiv and Lt. Junior Grade Alex T. Whitefield along with several vessels outside of the 46th, took to engage enemy vessels throughout California, Cortez, Magellan and New York where we were absolutlely successful. [X][X]
During that time, we were haclked by a militant vessel of John.Smitherson who we ignored for a while. At one point, we also encountered an Outcast vessel Kindred.Spirit which was haulting Cardamine. I managed to get the vessel to drop all the cardamine which was then taken by Captain Samantha Brown in the Akhetaten.
After that, I also managed to get the Militant and the Outcast to fight eachother. The militant destroyed the outcast and engaged me afterwards. I received critical damage and had to eject. I used my backup ship to continue engaging other pirate and similar vessels as I did before the encounter. [X][X][X]
