ID: Officer Rokuro Mizushima Location: Fort Bush Priority: Low Subject: Patrol Report, February 18, 820 A.S.
I accompanied Officer Tal Ravis on a patrol today. First, I ran into a Ship Hull Panels-hauling Transport heading to Pennsylvania. As far as I know, there's nothing under construction there that'd need those panels, so I figured I'd tail it.
It ended up docking on Betlehem Station, but soon undocked - still carrying those panels. That made me a bit suspicious, after all, he might've done this because he didn't want to reveal some secret installation being built by.. what are they called again? The Liberty rogues? Yeah. Those.
Anyhow, he didn't reveal anything, and when Tal and I questioned him afterwards he claimed he was heading to Bering - which would be an embargo breach, wouldn't it? It was about then that I noticed a lot of Rogues moving about on that TLAGSNET tool, so we left the guy alone. Name of the transport was Konnichiwa, in case anyone knows him.
We found one at the Pennsylvania Gate. Asked him to stop, but he wouldn't. You won't hear me complaining, it was a good opportunity for me to get used to the Liberator. Oh, about that Liberator.. It sure proved to be user friendly.
The other rogue ran into some asteroid field. Apparently we're not supposed to go in and get ourselves killed, so we returned to New York.
There, we ran into another rogue near the Colorado Gate. We shot him for a while - those bombers are decent target practice, by the way - until he ran into an asteroid field.
As by that time we had a big navy capital ship by our side, a rogue cruiser-sized thing shooting us, and a few more fighters buzzing around, we decided to pursue. It took a little while, but then I blew up the bomber. Well, someone else did. But I should've been the one getting the credit.
Things got slightly out of hand, and I ended up returning to base. I believe Sergeant Virgil Sams got himself into trouble soon afterwards. He might outrank me, but next time I tell him to run, he should assume I know what I'm talking about!
