Guten Tag sehr geehrter Admiral Joachim Landers,
Rheinland is wundervoll but dangerous. The activity of the Red Hessians in Rheinland is very high in the last time, most probably because a lot of Transports are supplieing Krupp Munitions. This situation has advantages and disadvantages. The Rheinland Military is able to produce good technology in Krupp Munitions, and that is the advantage. Good technology - that is the reason why I contacted you Herr Admiral Landers. The Bundesgrenzschutz owns a base in the Koeln system named ''Castrop'' as you know. We need to protect this base and a Rheinland Military Cruiser should be very well for that. This is the first reason why we need this Cruiser. The second reason is for operations at the borders in Rheinland. Omega 11 and Omega 7 are very dangerous, and for tactical operations a Cruiser would be pretty welll too. The third reason is that the Bundesgrenzschutz could need a Flagship, a good armored and powerful ship for me, Herr Admiral. We could supply one of our beatiful Rheinland shipyards so you can build a Cruiser for the Bundesgrenzschutz.
