Greetings
Sub-Lieutenant Mark Dering reporting another patrol completed.
Systems checked:
Texas, New York,
I started my patrol from West Point and I was informed by one of the Mandalorian Merc Sebastian Tombs that he have just detected a Rheinland fighter between Fort Bush and Norfolk Shipyard. We didn't manage to get a visual contact but he apeard few times on the scanners - I ordered all secondary fleet pilots to be on the lookout and we started the hunt. After few minutes of flying around the system Mr Tombs secured the JH to Texas near Badlands and one os Secondary fleet pilot Raven Castillewas securing the Texas JG. Me and secondary fleet pilot Pinta were patroling around. I managed to detect the Rheinlander outside Norfolk and I managed to get in scanner range:

We managed to distrupt the Rheinlander in Texas and started to shoot his vessel down...although after chasing him down all the way to Hudson JH - me and mr Tombs managed only to get his ship a little damage to his evading tactics... in the end RM unit managed to escape into Hamburg. While we were chasing the RM fighter - RNC gunboat came to assist his retreating comrade. Mr Ross who came to back us up - took care of that ship with help of secondary fleet pilot Pinta who was shoot by the time I managed to fall back and assist them. Together with Mr Ross we destroyed the Rheinland gonboat and went to Huston.

I was about to sign off when Mr Tombs reported me a pirate transport flying from Texas into Norfolk Shipyard direction. Cargo was Copper. With help of few secondary pilots I escorted the Junker Kerouacs Krate carrying full cargo of Copper into Bering system...well at least to the gate where we encountered the Rheinland warships. I didn't manage to escort the Junker streight to the gate so I am not sure if he left to Bering. I jumped into the fight and helped again Mr Ross with RNC gunboat. While we were atacking more of our units arrived and when we were about to end the gunboat two Rheinland warships - class Cruisers - and a gunboat jumped in from Bering. We finished quickly the gunboat and targeted one of the Cruiser.

After a fire fight outside the JG to Bering we lost one of Seconadry fleet Warship: BO|62-Penumbra cruiser - and we managed to destroy the RNC Weser. Second Cruiser started to retreat into Bering. We went after him and destroyed him in middle of Bering asteroidfield.
