Operatives,
I am rather certain that you already know of the incident in Virginia, vice admiral Alexis Hunter was captured by infected forces and admiral O'Neill is deceased. The report I've received has shown a clue of the LSF's relations and cooperation with the infected and the nomads by extent. I would like you to investigate further in that matter.
In addition, you are to find and rescue admiral Hunter. She is a valuable asset to the Liberty Navy and we want her back, one way or another and by any means possible.
Moving on to the next point; with the announcement by the LSF that they have 'claimed' the system of Alaska, the Naval High Command has seen Juneau shipyard as insecure for the detention and interrogation of rear admiral Knight. Thus, Knight and the high ranking members of her crew will be transferred to Radford station in Virginia, and the task of supervising and conducting the transfer has been given to the ESRD. We suspect that the LSF will attempt to retrieve and capture admiral Knight, so don't let your guard down and use any means and measures you see fit to successfully perform the transfer, Radford station will be heavily guarded by the Virginia defense fleet, so the safety of rear admiral is guaranteed.
Godspeed.
Signing out,
Admiral Natalie A. Reaser.

First and foremost I'd like to request permission for Salem to handle the transfer of the Rear Admiral due to its immunity to electronic warfare assault and seemingly clandestine internal security. Since most of its core systems are automated our crew size is cut in half and largely composed of armed guards. Salem will retrieve Knight from Alaska and use following route once she has been retrieved from Juneau. Alaska to New York; New York to Texas; Texas to Minnesota; Minnesota to Virginia. Once inside Virginia, Salem will be further reinforced by Battleship James, the Unsung War and the two Dreadnoughts stationed at Radford itself.
Reverting to the topic of the Vice Admiral I have already personally taken measures so as to investigate her current location and potentially formulate a plan of recovering her. I will keep High Command updated on the progress of this, but for now we are yet to find the exact location she is being held.
Commander Reeves, over and out.

Tidings.
As with Commander Reeves, I too have already begun an investigation into the recovery of Vice Admiral Hunter. Having seen first and foremost what we're up against, cooperation with external forces may be required, and thus I will take any measure necessary to bring her home.
As for the transfer of Rear Admiral Knight, alongside the Salem, I would like to request command of the "Longbow"-class cruiser Utah, which has recently been stationed in Virginia for refits and technological reevaluation. Her heavy armament and sleek profile should allow for a sturdy escort in the case the LSF decides to pull another move, and her crew stand ready to face any danger.

Admiral...
We.. I failed.. Me and the whole bloody battlegroup. The Utah, Admiral Sader, and the rest of us..
We proceeded with the operation to transfer Rear Admiral Knight to Radford for more secure containment. All was fine until we hit Minnesota.. then things went south. Fast. The LSF were there.. deployed from Dartmouth I think.. They came at us with the Willow Grove, and six fighters to match our own. We did what we could, but they overpowered us. Tore our party to shreds.
Rear Admiral Knight is in their custody now.. We lost the bloody objective, and now they've taken away the only thing we could've used to help end this damned conflict. I'm sorry, Admiral. I failed you. We failed you, as well as Liberty.
The Utah is now sitting in drydock at Washington, put in for the damage we sustained in the fight. She's torn up, but I'm hoping we'll have her out and back in action in about a week's time. The rest of the group.. Admiral Sader, Ensigns Taylor, Walker and Sanders. Lieutenant Ross and Sunderland. As far as I know, they were picked up by SAR teams from Moorhead.
I didn't expect this. None of us did. I'm sorry for failing your directives, Admiral. Rest assured, I'll do my damnedest to make sure something like this doesn't happen again. You have my word.

Commander Kingston,
The loss of Knight will disrupt our attempts from investigating further into the infection matter and will be a moral boon to the defecting forces. It was not expected, but it seems that we either have a serious security breach or a mole in our ranks. Eitherway, internal affairs will handle the investigation as to how the LSF knew about this operation.
Rear Admiral Knight has shown her true nature and color, and the Navy will not tolerate this. Knight is to be considered as a traitor and to be eliminated on sight like the rest of the fugitives, no mercy or sympathy, commander. Take some rest and prepare for the next operation.
Reaser out.
