Salutes* Kommandant!
As for this patrol report, alone I moved across Berlin at once to recon the area of pirates in the system. I manged to find a lone pirate fighter between the trade lanes to Stuttgart, a duel erupted. Through the power of my Zeal the pirate was defeated he stood no chance at all in combating me at all. I returned to Battleship Strusberg where I was meet by Fähnrich Theo Sittlingen who organizing a Strike Force along with other Fliegers enlists to attack pirates in the Omega-7 that have disrupted local mining operations. I was given command of the Flieger's Enlists in the group. We moved into the Omega-7 and found that the comm reports were correct, there was 1 Gunboat and 1 bomber. We successfully combated the enemy force and the Gunboat was destoryed, but the bomber manged to slip away into the Omega-5 system and im sure we won't see the last of him yet. So, Im happy to say that mining operations in the Omega-7 system have been restored and there is once more order. After the battle the strike group was ordered to the Braunschweig system by Major Joachim Landers for Flieger training. On our way to the system we encountered two liberty civilian transports that were hauling Military Goods without the correct ID's, both ships were stopped and they cooperated and docked with Battleship Strausberg for removing their cargo and processing. When we reach the Braunschweig system all ships lined up and began field training, I trained Flieger Wolf Muller and taught him in combat what do, what to attack, what to avoid; I even instructed him what were the correct loadouts he should have in order to counter other enemy fighters/bomber. We manged to train the Flieger in the "PIT" which Wolf Muller was the last remaining fighter in battle, Im sure his skill will grow in time and he will be more deadly then ever. During other combat training in Braunschweig we received a distress call from a Kishiro transport in the Stuttgart system that was being attacked. So the Strike Group moved out to answer the call. We did arrive a bit little and the transport was destroyed but there were no crew casuaities. The attackers where a group of Hessains 2 figher classes and 1 bomber. We fought the group and killed 2 out of 3 of the hostile vessels, as for the remaining survivor he got away by moving into the nearby field. As for the transport the surviving crew were transportated back to Stuttgart. We made another partol to the Hamburg and Frankfurt system and after that we returned to Battleship Strausberg, there were no other hostile contacts. That's all.
Yesterday was my first day of active duty for zhe Rheinland Military and I can truly say I did not expect quite so much action.
Zhe drama started while I was performing some routine Hessian cleanup duties in zhe Dresden system, when an unknwon ship showed up on my scanners. The ships name was, "~FrEeDoM~" and zhit was a Rheinland Pirate cruiser. I approached him with caution as I could see he was firing on something, to my horror it was Military personal. I asked the captain what he was doing as there was not much else I could do in my snub fighter against such a class of villain. He claimed to be doing missions and as I scaned him I noticed he was not carrying any papers. Zhis man was also firing an zhe Battleship Altenburg. After a while he finally left zhe system, I managed to recover some of our brothers but not all... Zhe Battleship also appeared to have no damage.
Just as I was about to dock with zhe Battleship I received comms request from a pilot named, "Steven.Hawk". This man asked if I was piloting a bomber class vessel at zhe time, I asked why and if zhere was trouble. He said that he just wanted a SNAC gun. I was quite shocked at zhis request as a SNAC is an extremly poerful piece of hardware. I informed zhe man that zhe Rheinland Military does not just hand over such weapons to whoever wants them. He told me that he was a skilled Freelancer, but he was Neutral towards my ship and in turn to zhe vaderland. I declined his off and he went on his way. I have zhe comms log in my ships storage if anyone would like proof.
While on my way back to Dresden I received a closed comms request from other Rheinland Military personal. I was instructed to meet up with them as we were going to do a patrol. As we started Ge.Alois.Dermen got word of a pirate presence within zhe Omega-7 system. Zhe Military wing then proceeded to Omega-7 where we evetually located this pirate. It was a Hessian in a gunboat class vessel. Our forces stated that he was an enemy of zhe Rhein and was to be terminated, we then opened fire on zhe vessel. This was when Major Joachim Landers instructed all our forces to cease fire apart from myself. Zhe Major wanted to see if I could handle it. I bombarded zhe threat with missiles and a rain of gun fire. With some slight help I am very proud to say I succeeded in zhe Major's test.
We then proceeded to zhe guard system of Braunschweig where we would undergo a training session. Zhe first part of zhe training involved one on one dog fights. I was itructed to go against Gefreiter Alois Dermen. We fought for what felt like a long time, with zhe Gefreiter proving to be victorious. He then kindly offered some advice and tips, which I took notes on. The second part involved zhe "pit' session. I had never heard of it before. Some how I manged to be zhe last man standing after Leutnant Larissa Schmitt was, with zhe help of zhe local forces which were for some reason firing on zhe Leutnant, disabled.
Once zhe training was finished we received a distress call from a Kishiro transport. We proceeded to his location and several Hessian ships were eliminated.
All in all zhis was a really succeesful first day of active duty for Rheinland. I only hope to continue is zhis manner.
Signed
Flieger Wolf Müller For Zhe Vaderland! [*]
This morning, I had my first patrol. I started from Planet Hamburg at 14:00 Uhr [Screen]. My first waypoint was Planet Nuremberg, Munich. On my way there, I'd passed New Berlin, where I made a large turn to check the lanes. Then I proceed to Frankfurt, and then to Munich, Planet Nuremberg. I didn't meed any hostile contact or trader to scan, on my way there.
Arrived at Planet Nuremberg, I'd set my next waypoint to Planet Baden Baden, Stuttgart [Screen]. When I came back to Battleship Regensburg, my scanners showed me a hostile contact.
I indetfied him as an Unioner, and asked him to hold his vessel [Screen]. First, he refused to, but a few clicks later, he turned his vessel and started attacking me [Screen]. Of course I returned fire immediately. In the first five minutes, he attacked me hard, but when he noticed, that he'll lose that fight sooner or later, he tried to run [Screen]. Now he was dodging like an idiot, what made it even harder to destroy his ship. Anyways, a few minutes later, I shoot his mines with my cruise disruptor, which made him explode by his own mines [Screen]. The threat was purged.
So I proceeded to Frankfurt. There at Mannheim Station, I'd meet a rheinland civilian, who was under heavy attack by a Red Hessian patrol. Of course, I'd helped him out and destroyed the hostile vessels [Screen].
Arrived in New Berlin again, I made another long turn and resupplied and repaired my Wraith at Battleship Strausberg. There I'd controlled a Junker who was hauling some copper ore. I told him, that he isn't allowed to get it to Liberty borders. But he was gone before I recieved an answer.
Entered Stuttgart, I scaned another trader at Planet Stuttgart [Screen]. But he was clear. So I checked my last waypoint at Planet Baden Baden [Screen].
Finally, my first patrol was finished at Battleship Karlsruhe at 14:50 Uhr [Screen].

Greetings Kommandant!
What turned from a normal patrol in the Stuttgart System to the Omega-7 turned into all out Battle against the Prime Hessain fleet! At first I was doing patrols with Gefreiter Michael.v.Reims of the Stuttgart system nothing major, only 1 pirate flying around and we manged to killed him, poor fool didn't even know what hit him. But as we were going into the Omega-7 the Hessain force that was already there was gaining strength in mass numbers. Several Zephry Carriers and may Hessain Cruisers where forming up. And a Major conflict erupted! The battle got so intense the RNC capital ships had to be called in to remove the threat. Also many other rouge pirates and even a Reaver joined the side of the Hessain Fleet. But we also had our advantage with the SMP giving their assitants to our forces. Sadly we lost a Battleship RNC-Feldheim and the RNC-Mosku, crew casualities are yet unknown at this time. But we did a lot more damage to the Prime Hessain Fleet, they lost 2 Zephry Carriers while most of their Cruiser escaped with massive amount of damage from the battle, and not only that they lost almost the entire bulk of their fighter squards supporting their fleet. So the Hessain fleet was lest to say obliterated. Even better for my our victory I manged to single out and kill the coward Ex pirate bomber that was able to escape days ago when I was on partrol in the Omega-7 system, I even showed the image in my last report of his escape and thus my theroy was correct, his days were numbered for sure and im glad I was the one to put him down. Also 1 or 2 IMG ships were supplying the enemy with fresh bots for repairs and they were easily destoryed once we found out, and I can say this that the relationships with IMG will greatly fall due to their rebellious attitude in supporting the Hessains. So once more order had been restored to Omega-7 and mining operations can go without being disturbed. That's all.

Guten Tag meine Damen und Herren,
Ze patrol started in Braunschweig with Johannes Zukauf (Wraith) who isn't in ze Military yet. I awaited his arrival at ze Battleship Moselle. So, we decided to start our partol in New Berlin. We moved through ze System but everything was silent zere. Just one trader on our way to ze Dresden Jump Gate
.
Near ze Hamburg Jump Gate, we had ze next contact with a trader without any cargo
.
We moved trough Hamburg and back to ze Battleship Strausberg, New Berlin where we met Flieger Sarah Braun. Together we continued our partol. We headed from New Berlin to Hamburg and Stuttgart. On our way, we had a contact with an other trader.
He couldn't understand why he had to stop but finally he did what we told him. We scanned his cargo hold and saw zat his paper were clean.
Frahnerich Lilli Valeska and Gefreiter Alois Dermen told us about activities of ze Red Hessians in Omega 7 and we decided to have a look at ze sector.
Ze Military enters ze system and we met some guys of ze Rot Front and ze Red Hessians. We left ze Sector again and regrouped at ze Ulm Border Station, Stuttgart. Some other guys of ze Military joined our purpose to make ze Rot Front and ze Hessians to leave resp. to destroy their ships. With a big group we went again to Omega 7. A really big fight started. More and more guys joined ze fight on both sides. After a while, ze enemies jumped to Omega 11. As it later transpired to re-organize zere. Ze enemies concentrated from ze start on our captial ships, i.e. ze Battleships, who were involved. Finally, after a pretty long fight (I think zat was ze longest I ever had in my young life *smirks*) all enemies got delented and so we moved back to ze Battleship Strausberg, New Berlin. Although we showed a strong presence we also had some losses.

High Command! *Salutes*
In the middle of the night I was woken up to respond to a emergency distress call from the Stuttgart system that another Hessain Stirke Fleet was inbound! I suited up quickly as possible and moved out to the System to meet the enemy. When I made contact with the enemy the battle was already roaring in raging combat and the hessains had a somewhat much larger force then our defense group in the system. But from the looks of it the hessains seemed to be completely disorganized in their offensive against us. As a result, due to our zeal and cutting skill we easily defeated them while they retreated taking heavy loses. And also I must give credit to the SMP once more for their greatful assistants to us. By my zeal *smiles* I was able to score two hessain kills during the conflict, I hope that will send a message to them! Whatever was left of the Hessain Strike Fleet scattered and dispersed all across Rheinland. So after the battle I was deputized by a U-Boat Captain from the BDM to help him hunt down some of the leftover hessains. I moved into the Omega-7 system with the U-boat and found some them along with some pirates supporting them. Their lack of skill proved to be their undoing *Smiles Again*. The Hessains were destroyed while some of the pirates fled in cowardice. When the sweeping of the Omega-7 was finished I moved along with U-Boat 66 to the New Berlin system where we found another Hessain pilot that tried his luck on pirating the trade lanes. Easy to say from me, his luck ran out and I made sure he ended up in space as frozen corpse, after all he did try ram me in hopes taking me down along with him, but to no avail. All I can say is this, there are still remnants of the fleet that do still exist, but I'am happy to say that I was able to hunt them some of them down for their crimes against the Fatherland. And Im sure that the BDM will be very greatful for my assistants. That's all.

Patrol Report Description:
Guten Tag,
This time I started my patrol from Battleship Strausberg, where I grouped up with Flieger Alexander Roter and some recruit, named Johannes Zukauf [Screen]. We continued our patrol to Planet Stuttgart. When we reached the system, we meet some lonesome Trader who showed me hostile on my scanners [Screen]. Wrong alert. He told us, that he was having trouble with his idnetification system, so we let him go his way. Arrived at Planet Stuttgart [Screen], we meet Gefreiter Alois Dermen, who was waiting for a Feldwebel, so he could take care for the Hessian acitiviy in Omega-7. Anyways, we went on to our next waypoint; Planet Nuremberg. We had no human contact on our way there. Arrived there, we set the next waypoint to Planet Hamburg [Screen]. But a few minutes later, Fähnrich Lilli Valeska messaged us, that we shall get to Stuttgart as fast as possible. And so we did. Arrived in system Stuttgart, we saw two pirates, but the Gefreiter took care of them [Screen]. So we; the Fähnrich and the Fliegers, proceed to Omega-7 to have a look. But it appeared, as we encountered a whole Fleet of Red Hessians there [Screen]. So I went back to Stuttgart and hopped into my Bergelmir Bomber for more heavier assistance [Screen]. Together wit some capital vessels help, tried to hold those Hessians back [Screen]. But unfortunately, I lost my bomber vessel during this long fight, so I wasn't witness of our victory in the end.

Guten Tag,
Yet another report from yesterday, for which I hadn't enough time to write it. Sorry for the delay. It began, that some civilians sent me an emergency call from Hamburg, that they spotted a large fleet of Hessian and Hellfire capital vessels. I immediately picked up some unknown Military recruits and called for two RNC capital vessels to help me with that. So I jumped into my Bergelmir again, and together, we made our way to Hamburg. There arrived directly faced the enemies fleet. Of course, it came to a fight [Screen]. One of the Hessian cruiser went down in a few minutes. Our next target was a Hellfire spyglass [Screen]. But this one managed to get away somehow. So we aimed the next Hessian cruiser who was running to the Wedel Mining Facility to resupply [Screen]. Where another resupplied cruiser was already waiting for him. It was the same which we already fought [Screen]. Anyways, we tried to force them to dock. Besides, we shoot down a Thor bomber [Screen]. But finally, I ran out of nanobots, and the fight was over for me. But in the end, we hit them hard.

Patrol Report Description:
Guten Tag,
Alright, here goes my fourth patrol report; This time, I started from Battleship Karlsruhe, Stuttgart. Next waypoint should have been Battleship Strausberg [Screen]. When I took the lane to the New Berlin Jumpgate, I faced a Red Hessian Pirate Cruiser who was running from two fighters [Screen]. Of course I tried to help those two Freelancers, to make that cruiser run. But a few seconds later, one of the Freelancers (which was a Mercenary I think) said, that the Unioners pay him to kill me, so he left the cruiser and aimed his guns on me [Screen]. A few seconds later, the other Freelancer got shoot. Now the cruiser and the Mercenary gave me hell [Screen]. But for the Kanzlers shake, a Turtle found me, and made the cruiser run. And since I already suffered critical hull damage, I made my way back to Battleship Karlsruhe for some repairs [Screen]. When I undocked from Karlsruhe, my scanners showed up another hostile contact. Together with the turtle, I chased him to the Dresden Jumphole, where his guns suprised me. But a few seconds later, he just jumped to Dresden. (Maybe because he saw the Turtle coming [Screen].) Nevertheless, I didn't went on chasing the cruiser, and set my waypoint to Battleship Altenburg, to continue my patrol [Screen]. ...When I recieved an emergency call coming from Stuttgart. Reportedly, there shall be a huge fleet of Hessians in fron of Planet Stuttgart. Anyways, I'd jumped into my Bergelmir and undocked from Karlsruhe, to see what's actually going on there. And what I saw, made me shiver! Around seven hostile contacts, four of them flying a capital vessel. Before I even had the chance to report in, the Mercenary from before burned my tail, so I had to move quickly [Screen]. I acted fast, and noticed the Turtle who was already heavy damaged. I'd picked a target; the LWB cruiser from who ran before [Screen]. A few minutes later, Fähnrich Sittlingen joined the battle. But that didn't made the situation much better [Screen]. Just a moment later, the Turtle decided to dock, to prevent the destruction of his ship [Screen]. And another moment later, my Bergelmir got shoot apart in the cross fire. Luckily, Battleship Karlsruhe was close enough to tractor in my escape capsule [Screen]. I'm glad I survived this suicide commando.
About half an hour later, when the Hessian Forces drawn back already. Gefreiter Alois Dermen, Flieger Wolf Muller and me, made our way to Omega-7 [Screen]. The Admiral himself gave us the permission to go there, since we where called for help, and no commandant with higher rank had time to lead us there. As always, we saw total chaos in Omega-7, and we already regretted in to go there [Screen]. There were even a Mako and two Treshers! I don't know what to say... Anyways, I gave my best fighting the enmey vessels [Screen]. But it took not long, until a Bounty Hunter Tresher stoped me with his missiles. (Said Bounty Hunter wasn't even involved in the fight. // after he destroyed me, one of the other Bounty Hunters apologized for his shooting without notice, that just besides). I tried to ignore the last few minutes, and continued my patrol route. Arrived at Battleship Strausberg, where my Patrol should have ended, I located a lonley Falcata Bomber, a member of the RV, the Volkspartei. I had a long talk with him about conspiracy and "overthrowing the government" [Screen]. But in the end, it didn't came to a fight, each of us going his own way. What a peaceful meeting it was! Back to Battleship Strausberg I finaly had my long patrol terminated [Screen]. At least!
This day, I had a second training module in Braunschweig, together with the Major General Erich.Kaiser, and the Leutnants Larissa.Schmitt and Viktor.Amott. First I had a few one vs. one agains Frau Schmitt, where she defeated me. Looks like I need to improve my dodging. Anyways, after that, we practiced the "famous circle". The first round, I didn't scored. But in the second round made a hit on Frau Larissa, and I was the won the circle [Screen]. Shortly after I got called by the Rheinland Federal Police to assist them in Stuttgart. So I took my Bergelmir and went there. Arrived at the Jumpgate to Omega-7, something weird happended; A Rotfront bomber appeard and shoot a Nova Torpedo at the RFP's bomber... well better see yourself: [Before] and [After]. What else to say?
Anyways, back on my patrol, I'd meet Eva.Blumentritt, a recruit of the Rheinland Military, and helped her our a bit. Arrived at Battleship Strausberg again, I'd scaned a Police Wraith, who had Unioner guns mounted [Screen]. I asked him kindly to hold his vessel and to unmount those guns as soon as possible, but he just said some, for me, incomprehensible words, and ran away. I was forced to cut his engines. Then he ran again... and so that game repeats about five times until it went on my nerves. Even when he was out of CM's, he went on running away from me. Finaly I destroyed his ship, and brought the pilot to Battleship Strausberg for further observation [Screen]. Where I meet Admiral Gunther Rall. Suddendly, a Hessian ship appeared on our scanners. We chased it to Dresden, and because he didn't surrendered, we shoot him down [Screen]. Now we went on to Battleship Altenburg. On our way there, we notice two members of the Rheinland Volkspartei, but they had no violent intentions at all. A few minutes later, a few pirate gunboats cruised towards the Admiral and me. They threatened the Admiral to kill him. A fight was unavoidable [Screen]. Surprisingly, the RV helped us to get rid of those "Ex|"-tagged pirates. On one of those gunboats, I scored a kill [Screen]. Just after that fight, the same pirates showed up in Stuttgart again. So I grabed my Bergelmir and went there to assist [Screen]. And again, I shoot down one of their gunboats [Screen]. When all enemy vessels where eliminated, I docked at Battleship Karlsruhe, from where I'd wrote that report here.
I'd also spent some time thinking about my future, and I reached the decision, that I'm going to apply for a promotion to the Gefreiter rank [Request].
