COMM ID:Captain Jane Hartman TARGET ID: Recruitment and Retention SUBJECT:Reassignment. ENCRYPTION:Low PRIORITY:Low
Good Afternoon Sir/Ma'am,
Following the destruction of the jump gates on the Rheinland border and the subsequent reduction in Rheinland's military presence in Texas the demand for military resources in-system has declined. With the front no longer demanding the manpower it once did the 21st's operations in the area have been scaled back over the past three months, and its vessels assigned to other tasks. While I am aware that recent events indicate that Rheinland remains committed to attacks on the Republic I am unconvinced that ongoing logistical support, particularly on the scale of that seen in the early days of the conflict, will provide any meaningful advantage to the fleet beyond what can be provided by standing forces.
With the entirety of the 21st's assets now assigned to other squadrons and commands, the group no longer serves any operational purpose. Two weeks ago I began the process of dissolving the administrative and command elements of the 21st. All personnel have now received new assignments, the majority with the Secondary Fleet, though a number of pilots have expressed interest in transferring to the First in the future.
In short, Sir/Ma'am, I longer have a role to fill in the reserves and I'm requesting reassignment to the First Fleet. I appreciate that both the Fleet's structure and operations have changed since I transferred out, and that reassignment may mean reduction in rank. My preference would be a posting to a capital squadron; however, I am happy to serve in whatever role the Fleet requires.
My service record is attached and additional supporting information has been sent over encrypted channels.
Regards,
Jane Hartman

Officer Commanding
