SUBMITTER:Major Theodor Wilhelm Falk von und zu Sittlingen RECIPIENT:Direktor Hermann Voss SUBJECT:A pleasant surprise
Sehr geehrter Herr Direktor,
I have good news to report from the field and would also like to request the Büro's assistance in this matter, but let me explain first.
Today I was contacted by Gefreiter Beist about, take a seat if you are not already sitting, a Hessian warship having surrendered in Köln. Being somewhat pessimistic about such an occasion, and suspecting some kind of Hessian trickery behind it, I made my way to the location immediately. While enroute, I was informed that the vessel has already been escorted to Vierlande, where further steps should be taken.
Arriving on scene, I did indeed find a Jormungand-class battleship, surrounded and entirely unscathed. I requested a brief situation report from our forces present, which consisted of Gefreiter Beist of the Hauptflotte, the battleship Nurburg of the Sekundärflotte, as well as the Kameraden Rammstein and Bauer from the 107th Sturzkampfgeschwader.
I was informed by them that there has been a mutiny on the ship, which was confirmed later by the officer currently in command of the Hessian vessel - a certain Herr Richard. A brief investigation ensued to uncover the nature of the mutiny. I took the liberty to attach the recordings to this transmission.
The ship was then borded and directed to Alster Shipyard, where it is currently moored. The crew as well as all passengers on the Jormungand have been transported to Planet Hamburg, where they are currently held in custody to await further investigation.
But to come back to my request - with the Büro's vast knowledge in extracting information from individuals, I would like to have some of it's Agenten present when the aforementioned investigations take place.
Hochachtungsvoll, Major Theodor Wilhelm Falk von und zu Sittlingen, Rheinwehr Hauptflotte.
P.S.: There were also civilian non-combatants among the individuals on the ship. They are currently held with the rest of the crew.

[22.01.2013 23:44:57] [RM]-Maj.T.Sittlingen: Nun. I am listening.
[22.01.2013 23:45:16] RNC-Nurburg: We spotted this ship during a routine patrol
[22.01.2013 23:45:33] RNC-Nurburg: he took his leave as soon as he saw us
[22.01.2013 23:45:45] RNC-Nurburg: didn't engage or try to intimidate

[22.01.2013 23:47:33] RHA-Randolf.Ragnarok: We are a few pepol who stolen the ship from a dock to escape from RHA with our familys...
[22.01.2013 23:47:35] [RM]-Maj.T.Sittlingen: Who do I have the pleasure of dealing with? Who is in command at the moment?
[22.01.2013 23:47:49] RHA-Randolf.Ragnarok: So we thought that would be the best chance to do so...
[22.01.2013 23:48:09] [RM]-Maj.T.Sittlingen: Your name, mein Herr.
[22.01.2013 23:48:15] RHA-Randolf.Ragnarok: Ralf Richard mein Herr.
[22.01.2013 23:48:52] [RM]-Maj.T.Sittlingen: *He nods* Herr Richard, so you have disposed of the old, loyal to the Hessians, Kapitaen, ja?
[22.01.2013 23:48:54] RHA-Randolf.Ragnarok: My second in command is Joseph Schulz
[22.01.2013 23:49:43] RHA-Randolf.Ragnarok: He was killed by trying to protected the bridge
[22.01.2013 23:50:08] [RM]-Maj.T.Sittlingen: Hmhm, I see.

[22.01.2013 23:50:30] RNC-Nurburg: I say this man deserve an other chance!
[22.01.2013 23:50:55] [RM]-Maj.T.Sittlingen: Gut then, so I suppose there are no more Hessian loyalists left on board? What about the families? You mentioned escaping with
[22.01.2013 23:50:56] [RM]-Maj.T.Sittlingen: them.
[22.01.2013 23:51:23] RHA-Randolf.Ragnarok: We have our wifes and children taken with us
[22.01.2013 23:51:40] [RM]-Maj.T.Sittlingen: *He nods again* Women and children, I see.
[22.01.2013 23:51:48] RNC-Nurburg: Where did those families live before embarking?
[22.01.2013 23:52:00] RHA-Randolf.Ragnarok: There are no trained crew on board so we got to improvised
[22.01.2013 23:52:26] RHA-Randolf.Ragnarok: Some where on trading ships and some are from stations around the hessians...
[22.01.2013 23:52:39] RNC-Nurburg: i see
[22.01.2013 23:52:46] [RM]-Maj.T.Sittlingen: So you are not trained to properly operate the vessel? Have any of the people currently on board fought under the Hessian
[22.01.2013 23:52:57] RHA-Randolf.Ragnarok: We managed to get them in the near of the dock and they joind us after our run... some helped us by our escape
[22.01.2013 23:53:00] [RM]-Maj.T.Sittlingen: banner in any way prior to the mutiny?
[22.01.2013 23:53:44] RHA-Randolf.Ragnarok: I was fighting for them... but i soon realiced that it was a lie so i wanted to get of it
[22.01.2013 23:53:50] RHA-Randolf.Ragnarok: But it was camplicated...
[22.01.2013 23:54:04] RHA-Randolf.Ragnarok: So my only chance was to escape with my family ...
[22.01.2013 23:54:04] [RM]-Maj.T.Sittlingen: Mhmhm, I see. That complicates matters a bit, Herr Richard.
[22.01.2013 23:54:12] RNC-Nurburg: When did you realize?
[22.01.2013 23:54:24] RNC-Nurburg: After which event?
[22.01.2013 23:54:46] RHA-Randolf.Ragnarok: After our squadron was on a attack on military vessels... but there where no militarys...
[22.01.2013 23:55:06] RNC-Nurburg: *nods*
[22.01.2013 23:55:21] RHA-Randolf.Ragnarok: So our leader hunted down them... that was the moment wher my friends and i decided to to something...
[22.01.2013 23:55:32] [RM]-Maj.T.Sittlingen: Ja, that sounds exactly like common Hessian tactics.
[22.01.2013 23:56:03] STUKA|Fritz.Rammstein: Herr Major Bauer. Things seem to be in control here. Permission to get something to eat ?
[22.01.2013 23:56:22] RHA-Randolf.Ragnarok: Some people of the RHA are only doing it for the money and have no cause... it felt wrong
[22.01.2013 23:56:24] STUKA|Heinrich.Bauer: Ja granted, you are cleared to RTB
[22.01.2013 23:56:37] [RM]-Maj.T.Sittlingen: Gut Herr Richard. I will tell you what is going to happen next.

Receiver:Major Theodor Wilhelm Falk von und zu Sittlingen Subject:RE:A pleasent Surprise
Guten Abend Major,
The Direktor is currently preoccupied with recent reports from agents in the field and has asked me to see to this matter personally. This Transmission is indeed a Surprise, if it is as pleasant we will decide at a later point, but we are most intrigued. A Hessian, overthrowing the loyal crew and taking his and his friends families. This has never happened before and we want to know exactly what this man knows. A Group of Buro agents has already been Dispatched to both Alster Shipyard to check and secure the Ship and to Planet Hamburg to assist you in your interrogations. The two groups are scheduled to arrive not too long from now. I shall arrive at Planet Hamburg in the late afternoon to personally oversee the Agents actions.
