Guten Tag meine Herren,
Ich habe ein small report to make about last night's concerted tactical strike into Gamma by die Red Hessian Army und die Red Barons.
We encountered Gamma at a very weak state of defense, you see they had only 2 Osiris', a couple of Dreadnought Battleships and some fighters.
Unser (our) Bomber squad consisting of Me, Markus Claus, Messerschmidt was led by Major Gunther Hoerst of der Red Hessian Army who was also flying a Thor, und thanks to his commanding skills we were able to take out the Osiris Battleships: Exorcismo und Velasco with only a single loss in our fighter squad (Klaus Stortebeker) und were able to make the dreadnoughts: L.O.S.T-NEMESIS und L.O.S.T-ZEUUS flee under our heavy fire.
The fighter squad meanwhile was taking care of some of the more elite fighters of the Corsairs such as Ocultado und Saladin-the-Sunkiller.
Overall the strike was a complete success and another victory fur die Hessians
Auf Wiedersehen meinen Freunden we shall see each-other in space
Objective 001: Recover probes scattered throughout Omicron Gamma, left there after our last assault.
Zis was a joint operation between the Red Barons and Red Hessian Army, simple enough. We recovered most of the probes from orbit of Cella Dor but signals indicated at least three probes remained scattered through out the system. Corsair forces were alerted to our position and gathered en masse. After ze Corsairs were dealt to, we retrieved all of the remaining probes.
Objective 002: Terminate all Benitez ships.
We struck a blow to the very heart of the Benitez family today, every Benitez on the battlefield was put out of action.
Five enter Omicron Gamma, five leave alive. Mission complete.
The Kommandant came under heavy fire from three Rheinwehr Pilots in the Stuttgart system.
He fought valiantly and was able to overcome the odds and take a pilot down. At this time, I arrived in the
system due to the Kommandants hailings. I was enroute to his position soon after. When i arrived,
I received a warm razor welcome from one of the pilots, nonetheless we exchanged munitions.
It wasn't long before we took down the Second pilot, Turning the odds on herr Weddigen.
He also fell soon after to the Kommandants razor.
Mein Herren und Damen. I am going to be short with my report. Everything started when Herr Halse called us to assist him in New Berlin. Military pigs led by Kanzlers Whore Malte engaged our fleet near Bonn Station hoping that she will once and for all destroy us. On my way to Herr Halse i was intercepted by two Polizei pilots. One of those pilots was destroyed while other one ran. When i arrived at designated rendezvous spot i have already seen that Herr Halse got reinforcement from our Hessian and Coalition friends. Frau Malte saw they are outnumbered and outgunned so she made a wise decision and retreated. Herr Halse and our friends destroyed four of them. Herr Halse single handed destroyed three of them! This victory is nothing special we do it every day and we never know who will return home alive. But we do it for a purpose! FOR THE RHEINLAND NATION!
Personal Log01: Today i have taken out our "new - old" cruiser for a spin. It is not new but it will have to do. Although it has changed a lot of owners and sustained a lot of damage during its time on the battlefield it still has a lot to offer. Intentionally I wanted to test its weapons on asteroids but Hessian brother notified me of a Rheinland Cruiser and few bombers in Frankfurt system. There is nothing better then live combat test. When we arrived at Frankfurt system Rheinland Cruiser was already damaged and returning to the Shipyard but fighters were still there. Once someone said treat your enemy the same way he treats you. Although they were no match for Josef i used them as a test. They are much more challenging then asteroid rocks. I am glad to report that all guns on Josef work perfectly, what i noticed though is that Josef's left engine is malfunctioning and we will have to repair it. All other systems are green. Rheinland fighters were destroyed in this test but one managed to escape. It couldn't went better. Voss out.

Yanovski, your outstanding performance in the field, in Omega-7 space, today, resulting in the elegant and flawlessly executed capture of the Bretonian Armed Forces' Admiral, James Hobart, leads me to believe that you are prepared to assume additional authority as a Red Baron. Your conduct has been exemplary, and I choose to hereby reward it.
Effective immediately, you have been advanced in rank, to Leutnant, Yanovski. Congratulations, and continue to serve the Red Barons as well as you have done to date.
