SENDER ID:ADMIRAL, Rachel A. Baker. TARGET ID:All Primary Fleet Pilots SUBJECT:New Orders ENCRYPTION:High PRIORITY:High
As some of you are aware by now, there is a Guardian flying under the callsign of "Gold Four". This ship is NOT being piloted by a member of Gold Wing, and it's pilot is capable of hacking into military communications frequencies with ease.
It is my belief currently, that this ship is being piloted by a deserter, formerly known as Captain Roy Sanders, our top Fighter Combat Instructor. Of course, I have been unable to prove this so far, but that's not relevant, the following orders however, are.
You, pilots of the Primary Fleet, are hereby ordered to attempt to detain and question the pilot of "Gold Four".
I am authorizing the use of amnesty offers, should "Gold Four" wish to turn himself in without incident. I expect however, that he will accept such an offer. Disable the ship if you must, but do NOT kill the pilot, and do not go after him alone.
If you cannot stop this ship, at least attempt to question the pilot, try to obtain personal details and information if possible.
For appearances sake, do not initiate hostile actions against the ship in the presence of civilians. We do not want them to believe that such rogue entities as this "Gold Four", are commonplace within the organization that is supposed to defend The Republic of Liberty, and her citizens.
I expect results, people. We cannot simply allow this to go unresolved.
Now then, moving on to a lighter note.
One of the newest graduates of our Officer Training Program, Sandra Rivers, has been promoted to the rank of Ensign. Be sure that you afford her the respect that comes with her new position, should you pass her in a corridor, or be assigned to work with her in space.
