First off, I wish to convey my gratitude for my promotion to Ensign. My only desire is to serve the Navy to the best of my ability. Secondly, my thanks go out to Lt. Commander Alexander Casero, who saw fit to recommend me to the Vice Admiral for promotion.
Moving on to the report....I started off my day by patroling the lanes of NY. Flying towards the Cali gate, I picked up a character by the name of Al.Bundy. My scans alerted me to a faint nomadic life sign stored in his cargo hold, so I quickly retraced my steps and tracked him down. It wasn't easy to catch him though. He led me on quite a trek, and with little warning, turned around and engaged me. Since I was only in an Executioner, I immediately performed evasive manuevers. Two navy officers, Alexander Casero and Jack Malrone were in Cali system, moving fast toward my position. I can still hear Casero screaming through the comms, "Evade." Boy oh boy, he didn't have to tell me twice. I love it that the Navy looks out for each other. I bet they could sense the panic in my voice because I could barely spit out more than a one word report of my situation. Finally, and with little help from me, they were able to discern my location. I was so busy evading the incessant fire from the hostile ship. I just kept telling myself, "Help will get here. Hold on for just a few seconds more."
Finally, help did arrive. Along with the two naval officers, Richard Williams assisted in the fight. Seeing that he was outnumbered, Al.Bundy attempted to flee the scene. However, I launched a consistent amount of train disruptors to drag him back into the fight. Finally, the hostile was subdued by Richard Williams and he is currently being held in a small cell awaiting questioning.

After that, I commenced patrol with Casero in California, where we came across Jadaan. Casero asked him to halt for scans, but he bolted clear across the system into uncharted territory. After a chase that seemed like hours, we gave him up for lost and continued our patrols.
Finally, Casero and I traveled back to New York, only to confront Project X and SirSlicey. Sirslicey, a freelancer with questionable judgement in friends, assisted a known criminal in unlawful activity. I lost track of Project X, focusing my attention on SirSlicey. Cesaro, after much debate as to the legalites of the situation, finally ordered SirSlicey out of the system and together we escorted him out of New York and into Colorado. Upon reaching Colorado, SirSlicely ran into his "pal" Project X and immediately started up a suspicuos dialogue with the criminal. I am not sure who attacked whom first, buy Casero sure was mad that this Freelancer was consorting with the criminal element right in front of us. Soon, gunfire erupted from SirSlicey and Casero, and I quickly warmed my guns up to engage.
Not long after the battle commenced, we were joined up by Lycan. Together, the three of us lit up the space so bright with gunfire, that the debris around us started glowing a dull orange. Sir Slicey was spitting out mines so fast I thought I was going to get nuked for sure, however, I somehow avoided disaster and simply tried to keep the hostile within range of my cd's. Eventually, too, this bogie went down in a flame of fury.

Finally, I had to dock my ship and set it up for repairs. A good nights work. (Personal Note: When Casero tells me to "split", it doesn't mean to leave him alone).
