TO: SA TACCOM
FROM: Cpt. Tannik Seldon (Callsign: Sushi)
RECIEVED VIA: Denver General Hospital (military wing)
Hello? Is this thing on? Nurse, go away, I need to find out what happened! TACCOM, did we get that Xenos gunboat?
Alright, let me start from the beginning. This is Cpt. Seldon, reporting an engagement in Colorado and the destruction of my fighter. Again. Sorry about that. I'm going to demote the 383rd's quartermaster if I don't kill him, he somehow let me launch without any countermeasures on board. Naturally, I got shot down. But I'm getting ahead of myself.
I was enjoying a nice lunch when I received an urgent comm message from the LNS Washington. A Xenos gunboat called Prospector was spotted in Colorado, attacking the Universal trader Eminescu. Luckily for Paul, he escaped. The Washington and I proceeded to respond, and found the LSF frigate Chancellor had already responded and was engaging the enemy. We all attacked, and to my dismay I found I had no countermeasures. I'm afraid I didn't last long. I found myself in a pod pretty quickly, drifting back towards the jumpgate, cursing my luck and hoping that the Prospector was a burning pile of slag by now. Hopefully, that's true... I look forward to hearing the full battle report from someone who wasn't forced to eject.
I don't quite know how I got back. Apparently, I passed out. The next thing I remember is waking up in this blasted hospital. I can almost move my arms again, the doctors tell me I'll be good to go in a day or two.
I'm going to need a new ship when I get back. Again.
