Identifier: This is Frank Austin, pilot of the unimaginatively named customs vessel Liberty.Customs.
Locations:I began my patrol in New York, and proceeded to Texas where I linked up with two LSF capital vessels bearing the AEGIS designation.
Comments: We encountered a foolish smuggler inbound to New York in a Humpback carrying Rheinland diamonds. His ship ID was Ray.Blackwell. Despite our demands to stop, we received no reply from his ship at any time. He narrowly escaped through the trade lane to the New York gate, but we caught up to him at the gate where a navy officer had cleverly locked it down with his own jump request.
Further demands and an ultimatum went ignored, and when he tried to flee yet again he ate cruise disruptors and the combined firepower of the AEGIS battlegroup. A comm log of the final transmissions are included below.
It is worth noting that the vessel N.W.A was an incredibly insubordinate Navy Gunboat that complained longly and bitterly about the Rheinland blockade. He ignored the orders of the AEGIS group to stand down and land on Houston for a mental health evaluation, and his command was terminated. I am assured a detailed report will be submitted to higher authorities.
