It is beyond any words - that are not cursing - what you have done today in Alaska System. You distrupted the confirmed infectee termination. That alone puts you in place of suspicious on why you did it in the first place. You violated the security of Liberty by threatening the secondary fleet with discharge. In effect, the vessel - to my knowledge - ran away and whole operation has been sacked.
The infection had been confirmed and the Liberty Navy at the scene already decided upon termination of the vessel on basis of XO's confirmed infection, the inability of Warspite's crew to execute the XO and the little fact that crew itself declared themselves hostile towards rest of the fleet. If anyone will ever ask "why the Liberty Navy might be infected again?", I bet that poor decisions of 5th Fleet will be pointed out as main reason.

If Liberty Navy will be infected again - do not dare to put blame on me. I have nothing to say to you then. Your arrogance is puny and dangerous for Liberty.

I have been ordered to share all the logs from the events back then. Once that rough atmosphere have cooled down, the LSF cell I belong to decided to dispatch the proper logs that happened nearby Norfolk to the 5th Fleet Command. Both sides had their own point of view about the situation that happened around LNS-Warspite.
[29.10.2016 20:44:06] Bucket: I'd expect the navy to have quarantine protocols...i guess not. cleanse that ship in holy hell fire!
[29.10.2016 20:44:10] Agent.Gryphus: What the hell is happening here?
[29.10.2016 20:44:19] .:j:.ScrapFinch: Warspite's captain
[29.10.2016 20:44:23] .:j:.ScrapFinch: Just outright admitted to be infested
[29.10.2016 20:44:27] roy-restler: nomad infestation
[29.10.2016 20:44:31] LNS-Judgment.Day: Mark:Of course we do, that is why it will be taken to Washington
[29.10.2016 20:44:33] LNS-Montana: Collins: The XO did. The CO isn't.
[29.10.2016 20:44:40] .:j:.ScrapFinch: And these goons decide to either take the captain of finally bother shooting.
[29.10.2016 20:44:45] LNS-Montana: Collins: But he might be soon..
[29.10.2016 20:44:49] Bucket: you THINK the CO isnt. You cant be certain.
[29.10.2016 20:44:54] .:j:.ScrapFinch: Just.
[29.10.2016 20:44:55] Agent.Gryphus: Infestation? That stuff is the LSF matter from now on, I think.
[29.10.2016 20:44:56] .:j:.ScrapFinch: Nuke.
[29.10.2016 20:44:57] .:j:.ScrapFinch: The.
[29.10.2016 20:44:58] .:j:.ScrapFinch: Vessel.
[29.10.2016 20:45:08] LNS-Warspite: Soma: Maybe.... a little bit.... liberty ale?
[29.10.2016 20:45:13] Bucket: The LSF is what got that ship into that mess to begin with!
[29.10.2016 20:45:16] roy-restler: i think?what kind of doofus lsf agent are you?
[29.10.2016 20:45:17] LNS-Montana: Collins: It's a Navy vessel. the LSF has zero authority here.
[29.10.2016 20:45:22] .:j:.ScrapFinch: You make me look sensible in comparison, and I have auditory hallucinations.
[29.10.2016 20:45:27] LN-Murphy: Mary: No James isn't infected his XO Soma is infected ! And he Can't shoot Soma in "her " head cause Soma is also a man ...
[29.10.2016 20:45:39] Agent.Gryphus: Nomad stuff is the LSF matter, hands down.
[29.10.2016 20:46:04] LNS-Montana: Collins: Regardless, Captain James. Shoot your XO and spare your crew the hell of breathing space.
[29.10.2016 20:46:05] LNS-Judgment.Day: Mark:Agent, you were not here when it all started, you can not take it over at the end
[29.10.2016 20:46:07] LNS-Warspite: Soma: I dont like the guys around the ship. They scare me.
[29.10.2016 20:46:17] Bucket: Brilliant...now we have a nomad infestation, the navy getting all sentimental about it and the LSF debating jurisdiction...
[29.10.2016 20:46:36] Agent.Gryphus: Watch your tone captain...
[29.10.2016 20:47:04] LNS-Judgment.Day: Mark:Then you should watch your as well
[29.10.2016 20:47:09] LNS-Warspite: James: I think that guy drank to much.
[29.10.2016 20:47:10] Agent.Gryphus: I do hope you still remember how "Liberty Navy taking stuff into their hands" ended in 803 A.S.?
[29.10.2016 20:47:23] roy-restler: heh
[29.10.2016 20:47:38] LNS-Montana: Collins: Captain, my order stands.
[29.10.2016 20:47:51] Agent.Gryphus: Warspite should head for Zone-21, away from the petty eyes of the civilians.
[29.10.2016 20:47:57] LNS-Montana: Collins: Execute your XO, or we will be forced.
[29.10.2016 20:47:57] LNS-Judgment.Day: Mark:And do you remember the whole thing with LSF in Alaska? It wasn't all that long ago, you must remember
[29.10.2016 20:48:11] Agent.Gryphus: Otherwise imagine the headers the very next day, captain.
[29.10.2016 20:48:15] .:j:.ScrapFinch: Yes, and you're currently justifying that decision.
[29.10.2016 20:48:35] LNS-Warbird: Watch where you going Dark-side
[29.10.2016 20:48:37] LNS-Warspite: James: Set course to Zone-21. Get us out of here.
[29.10.2016 20:48:39] Agent.Gryphus: "Liberty Navy vessel in New York - Infested!" Can you imagine these damn headlines?
[29.10.2016 20:48:40] LNS-Montana: Collins: The Agent makes a point. Warspite, proceed to the Z-21 corridor.
[29.10.2016 20:48:58] roy-restler: so much for that
[29.10.2016 20:49:00] Bucket: I can imagine that headline! I will be the one to make sure this is revealed!
[29.10.2016 20:49:02] .:j:.ScrapFinch: Never would I say this normally - The LSF is right.
[29.10.2016 20:49:12] roy-restler: hehe
[29.10.2016 20:49:12] LNS-Warspite: James: Crew. Report.
[29.10.2016 20:49:18] LNS-Montana: Collins: All units pursue. Warspite, disengage cruise once inside the Z-21 corridor.
[29.10.2016 20:49:27] Agent.Gryphus: <<unreadable>>
[29.10.2016 20:49:41] .:j:.ScrapFinch: That's all of them, by the way.
[29.10.2016 20:49:44] LNS-Warspite: CIC: All clear. Engineer: The engines are hot. I dont think we can cruise any longer sir!
<<entering restricted space - Zone 21>>
[29.10.2016 20:50:06] LNS-Montana: Collins: Cut cruise, Warspite.
[29.10.2016 20:50:10] LNS-Montana: Collins: At once.
[29.10.2016 20:50:15] LNS-Judgment.Day: Mark:Warspite go impulse speed from here on
[29.10.2016 20:50:31] Agent.Gryphus: Now, with these damn civilians out of the view...
<<entering restricted space - Alaska System>>
[29.10.2016 20:50:36] LNS-Montana: Collins: Pursue.
[29.10.2016 20:51:10] Agent.Gryphus: Catch the infected vessel.
[29.10.2016 20:51:18] LNS-Warspite: Engineroom: We got a critical engine failure. We drift.
[29.10.2016 20:51:18] LNS-Montana: Collins: Regardless of opinion.
[29.10.2016 20:51:18] Agent.Gryphus: Ah, here is it.
[29.10.2016 20:51:41] Agent.Gryphus: Now, gentlemen... With civilians out of hand and with no one to tell the stories...
[29.10.2016 20:51:46] LNS-Warspite: James: Can someone CD this rusty bucket?
[29.10.2016 20:52:01] LNS-Montana: Collins: Ready batteries. We're about to go loud.
[29.10.2016 20:52:03] Agent.Gryphus: Orders are clear.

[29.10.2016 20:52:26] LNS-Warspite: Engineroom: We made it.
[29.10.2016 20:52:33] LNS-Warspite: James: What exactly are you doing?
[29.10.2016 20:52:34] Agent.Gryphus: <<unreadable>>
[29.10.2016 20:52:43] LNS-Judgment.Day: Mark:Weapons are primed and ready, awaiting green light
[29.10.2016 20:53:06] LNS-Montana: Collins: Weapons primed. This is Vice Admiral Collins, Montana is ready to engage.
[29.10.2016 20:53:29] LNS-Warspite: James: If you attack us. We will fight... traitors....
[29.10.2016 20:53:51] LNS-Montana: Collins: Just execute your XO, and my ship will gladly peel off.
[29.10.2016 20:53:56] Agent.Gryphus: I'll make sure that vessel disappears from the records. I hope you'll do the same to your own records.
[29.10.2016 20:54:08] LNS-Montana: Collins: I will not have an infectee second-helming one of our warships.
[29.10.2016 20:54:37] Agent.Gryphus: *Salutes.* We should attain the professional stance nonetheless. Give the honors to the crew of Warspite first.
[29.10.2016 20:54:58] LNS-Warspite: James: Agent. Think about your actions.
[29.10.2016 20:55:39] Agent.Gryphus: It's been an honor. [Commlink with Warspite has been terminated.]
[29.10.2016 20:55:48] LNS-Montana: Collins: Warspite, by acting against the orders of Liberty and her people, you are hereby sentenced to summary execution by-
[29.10.2016 20:55:52] LNS-Warspite: James: Wait i need to do a call first.
[29.10.2016 20:55:55] LNS-Montana: -our hands.

[29.10.2016 20:57:46] LNS-Montana: *(EM signatures detected)*
[29.10.2016 20:58:11] LNS-Ithaca: Nothing to worry about.
[29.10.2016 20:58:38] Agent.Gryphus: Nothing to worry about, I'll track down any pods that hit the ECM.
[29.10.2016 20:58:39] LNS-Judgment.Day: Mark:Greetings captain of Ithaca
[29.10.2016 20:58:53] LNS-Ithaca: Hello
[29.10.2016 20:59:06] LNS-Ithaca: Are you hunting someone?
[29.10.2016 20:59:27] Agent.Gryphus: Now, blast it out of the skies. This hadn't happened - as nothing is happening in Alaska. As Alaska doesn't really exist.
[29.10.2016 20:59:29] Agent.Gryphus: Does it?
[29.10.2016 20:59:30] LNS-Judgment.Day: Mark:The XO of Warspite has a nomad 'pet'
[29.10.2016 20:59:39] LNS-Montana: Collins: James, Liberty has been honored by your service. It's time for you to be discharged.
[29.10.2016 20:59:44] LNS-Ithaca: Inside cargo hold or what?
[29.10.2016 20:59:54] LNS-Judgment.Day: Mark:And the captain of Warspite doesn't want to execute the XO
[29.10.2016 21:00:03] LNS-Ithaca: Send in a team then.
[29.10.2016 21:00:11] LNS-Montana: Collins: Too risky.
[29.10.2016 21:00:15] Agent.Gryphus: To infect more people? We aren't that mad.
[29.10.2016 21:00:28] LNS-Ithaca: Armed ones
[29.10.2016 21:00:46] LNS-Judgment.Day: Mark:The crew has showen aggression, they would fight to death
[29.10.2016 21:00:58] LNS-Ithaca: That changes things...right
[29.10.2016 21:01:06] Agent.Gryphus: Clock is ticking, Gentlemen. Warspite... did not ever exist.
[29.10.2016 21:01:21] LNS-Ithaca: There are records everywhere.
[29.10.2016 21:01:25] LNS-Judgment.Day: Mark:It was an honor, it is shame it came to this
[29.10.2016 21:01:28] LNS-Ithaca: Be careful
[29.10.2016 21:01:51] LNS-Judgment.Day: Mark:Everyone ready?
[29.10.2016 21:01:58] LNS-Warspite: James: You guys are all crazy.
[29.10.2016 21:02:02] LNS-Warbird: Ready.
[29.10.2016 21:02:09] LNS-Judgment.Day: Mark:Montana?
[29.10.2016 21:02:12] LNS-Montana: Collins: At least we aren't misled.
[29.10.2016 21:02:24] Agent.Gryphus: <<unreadable>>
[29.10.2016 21:02:36] LNS-Judgment.Day: Mark:Open fire men!
[29.10.2016 21:02:38] LNS-Montana: Collins: Gunnery, open fire.
[29.10.2016 21:02:41] LN-Murphy: Mary: Assisting LNS-Warspite, Weapons hot ! Torps on the way!
[29.10.2016 21:02:57] Agent.Gryphus: What the.
[29.10.2016 21:03:34] LNS-Judgment.Day: Mark:God damn it Agent! What are you doing?
[29.10.2016 21:03:35] LNS-Montana: Collins: Pursue!
[29.10.2016 21:03:44] Agent.Gryphus: Murphy has joined the enemy.
[29.10.2016 21:03:47] LNS-Ithaca: Don't damage it too bad...we can use some of its parts.
[29.10.2016 21:04:04] LNS-Montana: Collins: We're a knat's foreskin from wiping that infectee off the map.
<<vessels detected - 5th Fleet>>
The issue is truly problematic, since Liberty Navy bomber pilot, callsign Murphy, tried to protect LNS-Warspite and lead multiple torpedos towards either LNS-Judgement.Day or LNS-Montana. The short combat did not emerge any victor between my vessel and Murphy's, but gave enough time for pursuing the infected vessel. Shortly after, the 5th Fleet arrived to the scene and you know the rest.
But then Mr Soma happens to be an LSF agent, thus the LSF involvement into whole case is obligatory. I should remind you that all LSF members go under direct LSF jurisdiction, not the Liberty Navy one - as I pointed out back in Alaska. Keeping any LSF agent as hostage in Liberty Navy prison is something that does not help the mutual relations between Liberty Navy and Liberty Security Force. In case of interrogation, the proper logs should be pushed into LSF hands.

Well this is an interesting turn of events... As im not aware of "LSF agent as hostage in Liberty Navy prison" and i cant speak on something i dont know about. I request you speak to the Admiral about that.
Concerning the LNS-WarSpite:
I received a distress call and informed Admiral Sader about the WarSpite being attacked by LNS vessels and in that message he claimed that the LNS Vessels attacking him said he was "infected"... Now being a former Order Agent i know a thing or two about infected personnel first hand. So thinking that there might have been a mistake i informed Admiral Sader that we need to rush to Alaska to make sure things get handled correctly. If the Warspite was infected then i would have joined with the LNS Vessels in shooting it down... It sounded to me from the communique i received from the WarSpite that not every step was taken to ensure it was infected. Shooting down our own Warships is nasty buisness and i'd rather ensure we get it right before we start killing people who help defend the Republic.

Then case is even more complicated than I thought. I was told back at the scene the XO of LNS-Warspite is infected, the fact that was not only spoken by the XO himself - acknowledged by all other captains - but also whole crew clearly shown the hostile behaviour towards superiors 'out of blue'. In case of infection, it was stated, the forceful capture of the ship could end bad on both sides. I assure you I heard them out. I weighed their statements against those of the LNS-Warspite crew and I took into consideration their service records and commendations. It was a difficult decision, Commander, but I dare say it was a fair one. For all the people around Alaska System at that day.
Also... the Order? Since when 5th Fleet accepts people from a terrorist organization into their ranks, in the first place? You may know stuff about The Nomads, but from now I will clearly observe Amenothep. It is not a threat, just a statement.
