SUBJECT: Rheinland Embargo/Dealing with Intercepted Commodities
Salutations Navy Command. I am petitioning to you this day for assistance and suggestions regarding the ongoing trade embargo with Rheinland. It has come to my attention that a number of vessels that have been enforcing this blockade are unable to handle the vast amount of prohibited goods/commodities that is generated: thus, leaving the space cluttered with valuable materials that can not be hauled back for inspection. Due to this, many blockade enforcers are left with little choice but to vaporize these resources at the site of their arrival in Liberty...
As a former Civilian DSE transport captain, I would like to propose a solution to this "wasteful" method of law enforcement. I seek permission to establish a "Customs"-like vessel to haul contraband goods to the properly equipped Navy shipyards, battleships, stations, and regulated Liberty planets; thus extracting some use out of the intercepted goods, while still maintaining rigorous precautionary standards required by the embargo.
It has come to my knowledge that such a ship is currently in production. My "curiosity" has lead me to the EL-HiL51 "Mammoth"-class vessel LLS-General.Welfare. With proper authorization, I wish to use my previous transport experience to supervise this, primarily civilian-staffed, domestic transport vessel. With a little assistance from a mid-skilled escort fighter, the embargo can be enforced effectively in any given location; firmly embedding the respect Liberty deserves in the minds of lawful traders and would-be smugglers alike.
*Formal request follows...
REQUEST: On this day, I, Pilot Recruit Micheal Vega, do hereby request to be transferred (at least on a part-time basis) to a position aboard the LLS-General.Welfare. I am fully aware of the responsibilities required in such a position and am prepared to handle the task of fulfilling these obligations. I formally submit this request in all sincerity and am bound to yield to the ruling made by Command on this matter. If selected, I solemnly swear to perform this duty to the best of my abilities; and to ensure the safety of the civilian crew aboard from all threats, both foreign an domestic. END
Thank you for your most valuable time, Command. Recruit Vega, ending message.
