Rekrut Joerg Caspar Klingemann Vogtland Base, Dresden System
To Red Hessian Reporting Facility
Patrol Report #01
Guten tag, today was my first day in Red Hessian Army as a REKRUT. I received my ID and documents from Vogtland Base, Dresden System. I had a fully outfitted Sabre with the required IFF and ID.I started my first patrol under supervision to Freital Base, Omega-11. After confirming the space around Freital was clear, I decided to return to Dresden System.
In Dresden system I was joined in by anoher Hessian, Rekrut Virgil Castner.
From there on we grouped and decided to take the New Berlin jump hole. After entering New Berlin system we were attacked by a fleet of Bounty Hunter with Hammerheads, but were rather easy to take out. We went on to inspect the trade lanes connecting Dortmund station and Hamburg Jump Gate expecting to interrogate some DHC and Kruger Transports. In the mean time we encountered a Rheinland Military Bruno kaptaining a Cruiser. Without hesitating to risk our lives we decided to have a neutral conversation with Bruno. At the time of our conversation we were joined by another hesian Lieutenant RHGB-Berserker. We tried to make him understand, about the goals and objectives of our Volksrevolution, without attempting to start a fight but he seemed to assume us as terrorists. After having a extended conversation with Bruno, I asked him to drop the Injured pilots he had gathered in his cargo hold, but as usual he Refused and denied to surrender. In the next instant he started to open fire at RHGB-Berserker. He was aided by another fleet of RNC cruisers. As a backup we called in another Independent Hessian named Kurt.Bauer.
After a fierce fight, Bruno was put out of action. We complimented each other after the fight. Virgil and I continued our patrolling towards Planet New Berlin, but were outnumbered by two RFP fighters and a RNC cruiser. Believing we were outnumbered and running low on fuel, went on to dock at the Kaiserslauten Base.
