Report Begins
I joined up with callsign Praxis and one of the secondary fleet hellfire pilots on a raid through several Liberty systems. During this time we encountered several Liberty Primary Fleet ships. One of the ships, manned by Daniel Redding surrendered to us, and I collected his ejected pod. The next two we encountered were more militant, and engaged us. During the course of this combat, the ships ESRD|Phantom and [LN]-Alan.Jones were accounted for and neutralized. Unfortunately, in the combat with the Liberty Fleet Admiral, my own ship was destroyed. Fortunately, Praxis was able to secure victory and my ejection pod.

Legionnaires,
You've probably noticed the holding cell on Monterrey has a guest right now. I offered them the choice between certain defeat or surrender, he sensibly the picked the latter. I've delegated the responsibility revolving around his period of custody to the relevant authorities in the Commonwealth. Unlike what forced us down this road, he'll be treated fairly and then exchanged for something or someone equally valuable in return.
And to complete Eik's log and to boost morale, here are the two confirmed kills she was talking about.
[11.08.2017 15:48:34] Donald.Jackson: These huge guns take time to warm up. *laughs*
[11.08.2017 15:49:25] Death: [LN]-ESRD|Phantom was put out of action by [HF]-Praxis (Gun).
[11.08.2017 15:49:35] Donald.Jackson: Whoops there goes the first one.
[11.08.2017 15:51:05] Death: [LN]-Alan.Jones suffered a self-administered loadout error (Mine).
[11.08.2017 15:51:10] [HF]-Praxis: Done.
[11.08.2017 15:51:21] [HF]-Praxis: Some Admiral..
As always, no complacency. If we're going to truly get what we want, we need to be relentless. Good hunting.
Instead of a patrol today, I was tasked by some officials from the Commonwealth with dealing with a group of Junkers that had been spotted too close to Guadalajara. So I took the Stryker and went to snuff them out. Upon nearing their position, the situation immediately turned hostile, with a greeting of blaster fire headed towards me. That didn't phase me, and I charged right into the fray taking out several of their ships with their own mines. They seemed to have nearly limitless backup, I don't know where all these ships came from, but there were a lot of them. No matter, I dispatched them all. In the end, I took 17 Junkers captive and brought them back to Guadalajara for trial.
I suspect the officials will send me on a mission to deal with whatever base of operations those Junkers have set up soon.

Legionnaires,
I'm issuing an order regarding the acquisition of detailed ship scans, specifically of those that belong to the cruiser-class commonly found within Liberty. Given prior progress on this very subject, you needn't concern yourselves with obtaining scans for the "Scylla" class destroyer as such has already been procured.
When you're ready to begin work on this, speak to one of the technicians on Hesperia and have them strap the scanner onto your vessel. As of right now, and according to R&D, the remaining scans required are concerned with "Storta" class destroyer and "Archer" class siege cruiser, I'm personally adding the "Thanatos" class Crayterian cruiser to the list, given a spike in tensions.
Should you encounter any other cruiser class vessels within our domain that may pose a plausible threat, such as the "Donau" or "Hel", feel free to take initiative and collect detailed scans of them as well.

Taking the large flight troughout Vesupucci with my new wing, I met Sahega and Lonestar in Magellan in front of the wrecks of the Freeport station. I was aware she was discussing with a bunch of small-time Hunters where they wanted to claim a bounty on us.
Arranging the situation without hesitation, a Royal Navy Cruiser in the name of Quantine Royale met the scenery so both groups , including the BPA Bretonian Policemen who happened to be there setted fire to the gunship, forcing him to dock fastly on the nearest station.
Back to the action, the GB class Hunter stept aside while the Manta VHF class Hunter engaged Sahega. One long fight, and Sahega was down. I had to put the hands on the controls and fire at the Hunter while I could. The fight lasted for a few minutes till a dual-mine explosion occoured close to my vessel. Both the hunter and me exploded in pieces, thankfully I could tear that guy appart.

Legionnaires,
I take great pride when I see our men go far beyond even our expectations of them. That spark in my chest that sets all the patriotism I thought I'd lost ablaze. I'm genuinely proud to present the honour of this message to Lieutenant Kurt Walters, today we regard him not just as a capable fighter of our forces, but a Hero. One that will serve as an inspiration to the people we're sworn to protect in the Commonwealth. May the flame in your soul motivate others to serve and to do so with the same conviction. I take great pride in announcing that you've more than earned your GoldenStar, Walters.
To further aid you in spreading such ferocity and zeal to the rest of our men, I'm hereby elevating you to the rank of Major. To the rest of you, remain stead-fast in what is you fight for, believe in the banner and let nobody else tell you otherwise, the opposition will merely fuel you to break the barriers of expectation. Godspeed.
Launching from Hesperia, I noticed a request for help by Star Colonel Sahega against a duo of Rogues by the New York gate in Pennsylvania. Moving, once I arrived on scene, what looked like a barking contest soon changed into a jousting match as the Rogue gunship (LR-Public.Nuisance) and it's light fighter escort (LR-Flying.Fragile) pitted themselves against the two of us.
Sahega scored the first kill with the Jackel, and we soon turned our attention to the gunship. While he gave us a hell of a time, he jumped to the neighboring New York system, where we encountered a Fifth Fleet cruiser (5th|LNS-San.Diego). The gunship prottled around for a while, before jumping back to Pennsy and then back to New York, where he was torn apart by the cruiser.
As the cruiser engaged the gunship, another Fifth fleet vessel, a fighter (5th|Jim.Joker.Wallace), moved in to engage myself and Sahega. Fortunately, the guy must've been a rookie, as he was torn to bits by Sahega's guns.
While we were occupied with the fighter, the cruiser departed, returning in the form of another fighter (5th|Nicole.Bradley). She arrived just after the other had been shot down, Sahega opting to duel her and ordering me to move out elsewhere.
I heard wind that she was bested, but I doubt those rumors. I returned to Hesperia, where I picked the gunship shrapnel from my hull.
09.30.824 A.S : Hello, I'm back and here is my message dump...
We got a really good raid in New York a few minutes ago, we managed to terminate some Navy scrubs, a police officer and almost killed a Navy capital ship.
Also, I think I found something rare, check the picture for the rare items.
Participants:
[HF]-Furor - Good pilot, would recommend a promotion
[HF]-Legionnaire aka me
[HF]-Blackjack - joined at a later point where we attacked the LABC, no clue what he did, but at least he did something
Leah.Cook - Actually died, but hey, she did good
Pit.Viper - A bomber, no clue who this guy was, but his brain can't be that big
Scrubs that got killed:
5th|Mike.Anderson - Got killed by Furor, what a epic explosion
Barney.Baker - A police Officer who really thought a Light Fighter is a good ship
5th|Valerie.Vinch - A dead Guardian, I hope you get that joke
5th|Gregor.Sanders - This guy has actually no clue how to fly, but got me pretty hard
Scrubs that survived:
LNS-Arctique - Siege Cruiser
LNS-Lawrence - LABC, this guy will have some high repair costs Attachment: #1 - My pictures, #2 - Picture from Furor
Name:Christopher V. Dalgaard Rank:Executive Commander Subject:A round of promotions
I'll make this brief,
Lieutenant Levenko, thank you for your due diligence. A solid report and a good amount of casualties for the enemy side. I should know I was there, namely as the pilot going by the call-sign of Furor. I'm flattered you put me up for promotion given that I'm the Executive Commander and going higher is politically impossible for me. But I'll give you a boon for being a genuinely solid and dependable officer.
Consider your sincerity noticed, Major Levenko. And congratulations on the promotion.
As for you Initiates West and Greene, you've proved your mettle, I'm pleased to offer you the rank of Pilot First Class, marking you as true Legionnaires now. Continue to do us proud.

Report Begins
Greetings fellow Legionnaires,
this is pilot Greene reporting in.
Today, at the New York gate in Texas, [HF]-HFGBx-Undaunted, [HF]-Blackjack and myself stumbled upon a navy capital vessel and it's support.
We decided to act before any reinforcements arrive. [HF]-HFGB-Legionnaire and Steve.Athanas joined us in Texas short after that. Said pilot lost it's vessel short time later.
As reinforcements arrived, there was another nasty surprise. A rogue destroyer was popping up and so the plan changed. Since we were heavily outgunned we decided to scramble
and get the bombers out of the hangar. Almost immediately after arriving in Texas again, the rogue LRD-"A_Liberty_Tragedy" was destroyed.
From this point of time we started to concentrate on the navy again. Unfortunately massive reinforcements for them arrived, giving us a hard time. There was even an annoying hunter gunship, Abyss, who jumped into the fight out of nowhere and usually was hiding amongst all the capital vessels and had the chance to resupply in between. We failed to concentrate our fire and lost a gunboat during the mess ([HF]-HFGBx-Undaunted). As far I know, the navy lost one vessel (5th|Ace:Walker) and a couple of capital ships got heavily damaged.
When dealing with other snubs arround, my vessels power core was destroyed by a missile.
All according escape pods have been rescued and transferred to Hesperia.
