TARGET ID:Liberty Navy High Command SUBJECT:Patrol Report #OED-2903: A Testimony ENCRYPTION:High PRIORITY:Medium
I wanted to forward along the testimony I received from the captain of a secondary fleet gunboat, the [color=#33FF33]LNS Forward Unto Dawn. Her captain, Joshua Hunt, reported to me his side of an incident occurring earlier today, which he believed might end up coming to the attention of our High Command.

Quote:[06.08.2012 18:20:49] LNS-Forward.Unto.Dawn: Hunt: Joshua Hunt here, there was a bit of a problem with a few Freelancers earlier.
[06.08.2012 18:21:09] [LN]-James.Lambert: Hello Mr. Hunt. Please, share the story.
[06.08.2012 18:27:09] LNS-Forward.Unto.Dawn: Hunt: Sorry about that, sir. Ion interference.
[06.08.2012 18:27:59] LNS-Forward.Unto.Dawn: Hunt: Anywho, These two freelancers. We've seen them movin' Detroit weaponry to Rheinland.
[06.08.2012 18:28:19] LNS-Forward.Unto.Dawn: Hunt: I managed to catch one after returning from a fight in Penny with these two Outcast Dreads.
[06.08.2012 18:28:32] LNS-Forward.Unto.Dawn: Hunt: he was flying a Behemoth class Rheinland transport.
[06.08.2012 18:28:42] [LN]-James.Lambert: Ship name?
[06.08.2012 18:29:07] LNS-Forward.Unto.Dawn: Hunt: Saarnev something, really long, alot of A's in it.
[06.08.2012 18:29:26] LNS-Forward.Unto.Dawn: Hunt: Anyways, I questioned it, asked it to drop it's cargo and I'd escort it to Bretonia.
[06.08.2012 18:29:49] LNS-Forward.Unto.Dawn: Hunt: It refused and docked with the lane, I cut it, it demanded to know what was wrong. By then,
[06.08.2012 18:30:08] LNS-Forward.Unto.Dawn: Hunt: The Second transport, a Liberty class Bison with PlanetForm Papers, was in range.
[06.08.2012 18:30:43] LNS-Forward.Unto.Dawn: Hunt: The Rheinland transport tried to dock with the lane, it spat in my face and refused to stop.
[06.08.2012 18:31:07] LNS-Forward.Unto.Dawn: Hunt: so, Like anyone would do, I destroyed it. The Bison tractored in it's weapons and got mouthy.
[06.08.2012 18:31:34] LNS-Forward.Unto.Dawn: Hunt: Alot of what he was saying was incomprehensible, I think he was questioning things he didn't understand.
[06.08.2012 18:31:58] LNS-Forward.Unto.Dawn: // in other words, he was swearing, complaing, alot of OORP screaming, then the Behemoth guy,
[06.08.2012 18:32:08] LNS-Forward.Unto.Dawn: // came back on a fighter and shot at me without a word.
[06.08.2012 18:32:30] LNS-Forward.Unto.Dawn: Hunt: The Judges were in the area at the time.
[06.08.2012 18:32:44] LNS-Forward.Unto.Dawn: Hunt: That's all I have for you sir.
[06.08.2012 18:32:48] LNS-Forward.Unto.Dawn: Hunt: Any comment?
[06.08.2012 18:32:59] [LN]-James.Lambert: Certainly an interesting situation.
[06.08.2012 18:33:17] LNS-Forward.Unto.Dawn: Hunt: Probably the most interesting I've had since I started my Service, sir.
[06.08.2012 18:33:19] [LN]-James.Lambert: Do you have any guncam evidence?
[06.08.2012 18:33:42] LNS-Forward.Unto.Dawn: Hunt: Only what the Bison Claimed to have taken, which I'll asume he's going to change.
[06.08.2012 18:34:00] LNS-Forward.Unto.Dawn: Hunt: Two Members of the Secondary Fleet Core were also present.
[06.08.2012 18:34:51] LNS-Forward.Unto.Dawn: Hunt: I'm going to moor this gunboat for the time being, sir. Going to get in my Avenger instead.
[06.08.2012 18:35:14] [LN]-James.Lambert: Copy that.
[06.08.2012 18:35:18] [LN]-James.Lambert: Thanks for the report.
[06.08.2012 18:35:37] Joshua.Hunt: Anytime, I'll let you know If I remember the names.
[06.08.2012 18:36:00] [LN]-James.Lambert: Sure thing.

Unfortunately the lack of guncam evidence makes it hard to verify his story, but I see idiots like those traders he described every day in Liberty and I have no trouble believing that what he's said is true. In addition, Captain Hunt assisted Primary Fleet forces for a couple of hours afterwards and seems to have a level head on his shoulders.
