Clark Here,
Following up on Captain Polstari's report on what I'm referring to the Harris incident. I don't know whats happened with the crew nor the status Captain Sanders. When myself and the marines of the Alpha squad, Bravo Company, 3rd Extra Vehicular Tactical division boarded the [LN]-LNS-Harris we found allot of laser scaring and battle damage along the hull as well as a few fires. We entered and we divided up to cover sections of the ship. Corporal Decker went to the bridge with Privates Ascot and Hernandez went up the the Bridge. Technical Specialist Ohms, PFC. Hague and PSC. Bester went down to the engine room, I took Master Sargent Anne along with the rest of the squad to secure the rest of the ship. Scans before entry said there was no vitals aboard and upon our short search confirmed that, limited though it was. Decker and his men could not reach the bride because of some fallen bulkheads and a sealed door. My team secure the top deck of the ship. we moved onto the second when Ohms radioed in that the engines where going to go critical. On that i made the judgement call to pull our men back to the [LN]-LLS-Arleigh Burke. We managed to get back to the Burke in time. Private Sebastian had a close call, the Harris' engine section detonated when he was entering the airlock and his EVA suit took some shrapnel but no injury to the person itself. At this point we have not been able to confirm if the computer core got taken and/or/has been breached. But given that there was a defector its entirely possible and we should assume the computer core has been breached.
I have already gone to the the measure of installing a new encryption system aboard the [LN]-LNS-Blue Ridge, [LN]-LLS-White Mage and [LN]-LLS-Arleigh Burke. "Herd" Ships this new encryption system will be mandatory for "Herd" transmission, so get it installed next time you pull into Norfolk.
I agree and support the order for scout ships to be assigned to our logistics vessels when they leave our borders. As we know there's been a surge in hostile activity outside our borders and i would much like our ships to be better protected.
