I do believe that I need to explain a lot of things that recently happened with my resignation in LSF and the transfer to the Navy, but the whole story will be well hidden due to my right to keep personal motives and feelings just for me and my thoughts, helping Liberty in the field. Many of you knows me in many different opinions, some are good and some are bad but in years of my career I learned to stay formal to every and in every situation that can face me. So, I would like to be treated that way.

Admiralty,
I'm here to submit my first patrol report that ended a hour ago, thanks to mighty god of Liberty I wasn't alone. Ensign Harper was with me. Patrol started from New York system and it was ended in same system by using patrol path through California, Ontario and Colorado system. All three of them were just fine and traffic was completely safe.
As soon as I entered New York via Colorado gate I heard distress call that was coming from West Point, Ensign Harper was already on the spot, so I was well informed about scene itself before closing the hot zone. I gave him free hands to deal with the situation by any cost till I arrive, I can say that was longest flight in my life.
Listening their communication channel I figured that situations isn't going according plan so I used all of my core power to the engines, which resulted in small hull breach well covered with shields, but still dangerous. When I arrive Norfolk patrol was already assisting Ens.Harper and one secondary Navy vessel and whole drama was about to reach an end, enemy ships pulled back and we head towards Manhattan where same ships waited for us.
They were fully equipped, repaired and with good will to put us out of action. With my hull damage I had no chances against them so we tried to hold them off as long as we could till we got some support, I suffered more hull breaches and some of my electronics where fried, losing my evidence due to the hardware damage I returned to the nearest base on Manhattan.
As I heard support team managed to handle the situation, that would be all.

First situation is pretty simple, it's about known criminal/pirate who was caught in shooting on Navy pilots. Several times so far now. After I offered him peaceful solution to surrender, he switched his attitude to dark side of his soul, showing will only to eliminate me. Now, by code of law I had all rights to fire upon him and take him to prison in escape pod which was also approved by Commander Dimitrova.
Enemy ship was well prepared for battle, if we count my engine issue I had no chance against it. Yes, my issue isn't fixed yet, it is just working till it's completely broken and I know I shouldn't patrol with it but protecting Liberty seems to be in my blood. However, I'll return to the fight details.
Enemy started hard on me hitting my right wing with maximum damage that reduced my shield to 70% of active power, he got upper hand in winning this fight but then two lucky mines head towards him. Both hitted him, leaving him as easy target for my razor shot. He had no chance of escaping with that vessel, so many hull damage and my clear razor shot forced him to use escape pod. Several seconds before I fired my main gun he escaped in space and managed to return to his unknown safe area, however his vessel was destroyed by my razor gun.
Later that day I continued patrol with Ensign Polstari spot civilian transport with uncleared IFF transmission "Order", which came from Zone-21 direction. After five warnings to stop his vessel, captain answered only by using his guns which was enough for me to order attack and destruction of that vessel.
My thanks again to the men and women who flew with me. I still dislike the fact the Executioner is prone to losing shield when you misjudge a turn and graze Newark.
Hunter out.

Greetings sirs,
Today had a bit of excitement to it. While on patrol in the Texas system I received a report of an Order affiliated Corsair Dreadnaught operating in the Alaska system. I was able to coordinate operations with several Secondary Fleet members, as well as a Primary LSF Agent by the name of "Allen", and we swept the system for the target. After extensive searching, and nearly at the point of not expecting contact, I detected the vessel near Planet Anchorage. I called in all forces and thankfully they were close by. The Dreadnaughts LNS Los Angeles and LNS Tennessee made short work of the subject, especially given its armor was highly rated at "CAU 8". The vessel seemed unable to target and fire back despite having forced the LNS Houghton Lake out of the system previously. Our snubs orbited the target and kept it locked down with Cruise Disruptors until the target was taken out. We returned to the New York system afterwards. GunCam as follows.
Much later that evening I received even more reports of vessels operating in the restricted Alaska system. Not knowing their affiliation or intent, I broadcast a message across the system requesting that they declare themselves. Receiving no response, and nearly out of fuel, I gave a last warning about the repercussions of operating in restricted space. Intel and comm record below.
// I would like to point out that I think Jason_Pirks may be operating with a case of "lolwut" syndrome, as he respawned and stayed in Alaska even after he was destroyed and I messaged him that he should have left. Unfortunately I don't have timestamped screens to prove it. As for the "sanctions" in the second encounter, I was contacted by Punkhunter66 and clarified the point that I meant in RP, not as an Admin.
COMM ID:Ensign Alan Polstari TARGET ID:Primary Fleet Command HQ SUBJECT:Bribery and Extortion Attempts ENCRYPTION:High PRIORITY:Medium
Greetings sirs,
I began my patrol in the Texas system today aboard the LNF Paradise. While standing on station over Houston, we picked up a vessel tagged as Exponent coming from what appeared to be the California Jump Hole based on his vector. While not illegal, it was odd considering that the vessel was a Liberty "Mastodon" Transport. Scans revealed no contraband. He docked and unloaded his Hazmat Container cargo, and I checked him as he took off as again with Nanocapacitors. As I was hailing him, however, he was already making for the Bering Trade Lane and Gate. I ordered him to halt, but he refused to comply. Unfortunately I was not able to receive assistance in dealing with him on the way back into Texas. The following is documented evidence of his willful transgression of the Rheinland Embargo, as well as an attempt to bribe a Naval Officer.
The information with respect to the docking at the Junker Base, especially in light of his statements about how easy it is to change papers, will be relevant to information presented at the end of this report. I've put the bribe towards the Paradise's requisitioning budget unless otherwise ordered.
It was at this point that I noticed a vessel inbound from what I believe to have been the Pennsylvania Jump Hole, based on its flight vector. Scan showed the vessel to be a Corsair Gunboat operating under the same said Papers. Thankfully I was able to talk the vessel into leaving peaceably, though our route was circuitous through the outer Texas space. The target exited through the Hudson Jump Hole, seemingly as if it's navigator already knew of its existance. I followed through and ensured that the target continued on out of Liberty Space. Vessel scan and parting comm chatter given below.
Returning to the New York system from Texas, I began a final system sweep before I was to put the Paradise in at Norfolk Station. While there, I picked up system comms of vessels attempting to extort two million Sirian credits from a vessel known as Star.Watch. Having passed by that vessel at Manhattan previously on my patrol, I made my way there. Arriving at Manhattan, I found two Lane Hacker Gunboats, an SOB-Esoteric and an SOB-inebriated_Hero already engaging the Star.Watch, and attempting to extort a Nathan.Maybourne, a civilian flying a "Spatial" vessel. The Hackers, attempting to extort Mr. Maybourne, moved to engage him as well, and he was forced to fight alongside me against them. Thankfully Mr. Maybourne was well armed and able to assist in engaging the Hacker Gunboats. I would also like to commend my crew for staying calm under fire, as through their skill we eventually managed to get within the turning and firing radius of the Esoteric, and our combined firepower took the vessel out. It was at that time that the LNS-Los.Angeles arrived to help assist against the other Hacker vessel. It's firepower managed to make short work of the Inebriated Hero. I regret that I am not able to confirm which armor enhancements belonged to which vessel, but both were well armed and equipped, and would have required capital class support under any other circumstances. Extortion attempt and victory confirmations given below.
The Paradise suffered some damage, however, and while our crew was cheerful, the vessel was in need of repairs. We returned to Norfolk Station to hand the vessel over to the technicians and so that I could buy the crew a round (or three). It was while here that I noticed a Liberty "Mastodon" vessel with a Junker IFF signal coming in from Texas. While I am not able to confirm this at present, I believe the vessel sighted was the same as the [i]Exponent[i/] that landed on Beaumont, especially given that the vessel class matched and the captain of that vessel's previous statement with respect to changing papers. I'm also not aware of Junkers who would willingly use a "Mastodon" class vessel. Guncam given below.
It actually was a silent patrol today, the only thing that needed my attention was a Corsair Gunboat, which was lurking around the West Point-Norfolk trade lane. Was the perfect chance to finally test the LNS-Laredo. It was an easy task and the Corsair was dealt with after some minutes. I still prefer my Guardian though...

High Command,
tonight on patrol through California with Polstari, he encountered an already known Outcast, named Allen Walker. Due to the risk of support, the Outcast might have gotten, we both engaged him. Not much time later there came another Outcast to help, as expected. However, we managed to take both out quickly but then encountered a Rheinland bomber of the class Bergelmir. Seemingly lost, the Rheinlander, named Emi Kai, got pulled out of the ship after we hit it hard.
When we then resumed our patrol, I received an emergence call from Los Angeles, where two Xenos were lungering, probably spreading their stories to the citizens and what not. However, after a bit longer fight, an allied ship was able to take out the with Black Widows equipped Grizzly. Not much time after that, the Xeno Eagle fell as well.
Somebody tried to pirate one of our own transports, we decided to teach him a lesson.

The LLS decided to run some shipments to our base in Virginia, so I flew the MacArthur in to provide some heavy escort in case things went sour for them.
At California JG, New York proper, Lieutenant Clark encountered a hostile Freelancer that demanded credits. At the same time, Ensign Alan Polstari and Commodore Robinson were in the area. We couldn't let them pirate our transport fleet willy-nilly so Lt Clark stalled the pirate while we were enroute.
Luckily, the pirate was foolish enough to wait and the skirmish ensued. Lt Clark was able to escape with cargo intact. The pirate was a skillful dodger that it took the three of us (Me, Ens Polstari, Cdre Robinson) to put him out of his misery.

Greetings sirs,
This will be a compilation report of flight operations for the last two days.
Day 1 (19.05):
I began operations in the New York system. Detecting some unknowns in Virginia, I moved through Texas and into Virginia via the Gate to investigate. I found only a secondary pilot at my arrival, and made for California Jump Hole. I ran across the USI vessel Boston, and escorted it through to meet a USI contractor. While on station keeping an eye on the situation I noticed intel reports indicating that an HMS-Freedom and affiliates were operating in Colorado. I hailed the vessel, assuming it to be a Bretonian vessel, and asked for clarification. Logs given below.

[19.05.2012 00:41:22] [LN]-Alan.Polstari: If you're operating a Bretonian vessel, I need to know about it.
Receiving no further reply, I made for the Ontario Jump Hole, as several of their vessels were reported as being in Ontario/Operating Group. Coming through I headed for the Colorado Jump Hole, on the way to which is where I ran across the following.
Needless to say, I doubt the HMS-Freedom or her group hailed from Bretonia. Not being able to do more, I moved back to New York via California and met up with Pilot Samuel Knight. Unfortunately I arrived just as a vessel was being pirated by a vessled tagged as problem?. To complicate matters, it also appears to be operating a cloaking device. Knight and I attempted to interdict, but our firepower was insufficient to bring the target down before it re-enaged its device.

[19.05.2012 01:06:56] [LN]-Alan.Polstari: Do not engage unless forced to.

We then proceeded through a standard patrol through Colorado, Ontario, and California, updating Mr. Knight's Neural Map as we did so. We heard mention of a trouble maker called Cash.And.Carry, but found no solid evidence against him for anything or his presence anywhere causing problems. Our patrol ended without further incident.
Day 2 (20.05):
I ran several operations on this day.
The first was an attempt to interdict the vessel LordKaiser in the Paradise. I was not able to halt him as he made off with slaves, though I persued him to the Hamburg gate in Bering. I returned to Texas and came across several of the Bounty Hunter's Guild members, who were assigned by their Guild Master to persue the target. I am not aware of their success or failure in the matter.
Returning the Paradise to Norfolk, I launched my Guardian and began a patrol of California. There I can across an Outcast hauling Cardamine and apparently operating a vessel equipped with a cloaking device. I retrieved the Paradise, knowing I would need its firepower to take this vessel, but was unable to interdict before it left Liberty space, even though I persued all the way to Curacao. I returned to California and began an update of the Paradise's map of that system. I ran across several Liberty Rogues, but was outmanned and fell back. Having returned the Paradise back to Norfolk, I relaunched my Guardian and was able to contact several of the returning Bounty Hunters who joined me to take them down. We returned to California, and found several of the vessels operating in the Whitney Ice Field. There was also a vessel attempting to pirate along the route to California Minor from Mojave that we took care of shortly after this incident. It was almost target practice on that particular fighter.
I returned to New York and took some down time. Later that I day I joined Lt. Clark in supplying the ***REDACTED***. I am proud to say that the newly launched [LN]-LLS-Sierra.Nevada performed well, though there were a few bugs in the system we had to work out. After completing that task, I made a run to supply our forces in New Hampshire. While on that run I received the following communications.
