Red Hessian Reporting Facility

Guten Tag,

i just arrived from a patrol in Omega 5. Mein Freund Maik Lehmann and me appraised the mines of our defense grid, some need to be replaced. All coordinates are recorded and sent to the responsible Offizier at Ronneburg Base.
As the system seemed very quieted, we risked to have a short look at Cadiz Base. But before we came in scanner range, we got intercepted by a corsair fighter squadron. We managed it in the twinkling of an eye, to defeat them and capture their squadron leader, named Miguel Benitez. I was really irritated, did we really arrest the infamous Miguel Benitez?
To avoid any interruption and bring this possibly valuable "cargo" to our Hauptquartier, i took a long detour around the common passages what took me 2 days. But finally i reached Dresden and handed over my captive to our Nachrichtendienst. I really hope i hit the jackpot and his identity will be clarified soon. At least he got a substantial amount of credits with him. But on the other side, i don't think a high ranked Benitez family member won't be that unwarily and foolish to get caught by a newly minted Flieger.

As you have rightly deduced the poor Corsair pilot you captured is not THE Miguel Benitez. It was quite pathetic to see him crying and soiling his pants once our interrogator's started to drill him of Gamma defenses thinking that we had real Miguel in our hands. The poor bastard broke down completely and started sobbing and babbling. He confessed many things, among them that he's been riding high with the name and getting people fooled to buy him drinks and get hot senoritas. But the information he divulged was useless to us and he has glowing future ahead of him working the mining ship close to the sun in Omega-11.

So keep a lookout for the real thing meine Herren. Sooner or later we capture on of the top men in the Corsair ranks.

Kameraden,

yesterday i met up with my old Freund Maik Lehmann and a guy named Beppo Blutfels. We successful disrupted all trade from system Stuttgart to New Berlin for some time. We were quite unmolested even though the long range scanners showed a high military activity.
There must be some secret communication network for the traders, the whole traffic was grind to halt. So we decided to move out to the Omegas.
In Omega 7 we faced the Orca Gunboat Mary Poppins. When we noticed that the captain was moving out to support the Rheinland Military, we tried to preclude that. Unfortunately the Bounty Hunter managed to hide at Biesen in the last second before the destruction. We continued to Omega 3, where we met another Bounty Hunter named Ruby Woods. He affirmed to not work for our enemies, or being interested in any business in Rheinland. But than he somehow was very amenable for our propaganda and donated a reasonable sum to our cause before he left for Bretonia. He is for sure a real friend of the Rheinland people. When Casablanca Base reported several incoming contacts from Omega 49 we hurried to Omega 47 for investigation. Already in scanner range of the Battleship Fes, we halted a Zoner convoy and asked for support for the Volksrevolution. We mainly talked with the captain of the Tau.Ceti.Central, he said they want to stay out of any conflicts by supporting one side. He gave all of us a Pineal Amulet and good wishes. This Zoners are weired and funny guys, we let them go after that nice meeting. After refueling at Freeport 5 we returned to Ronneburg Base. We successfully spread our message today and we hopefully receive more support in the future. I am currently persuading my old friend Maik Lehmann to join our ranks, we will see if i will have success. Too bad, the story with senor Benitez, i was really hoping we hit the jackpot.
