I am reporting in after todays patrol with Admiral Rall.
I joined up with him in the orbit of Planet Stuttgart, at which point the Admiral already had Leutnant Schmitt and Flieger Engel with him. From there we wanted to proceed to the Omega-7 system but a suspicious vessel, hauling copper ore, crossed our path. Said vessel was an IMG transport with Kruger papers, I did not inquire how the Kapitän got that particular vessel but after we escorted him to Stuttgart he changed crafts and was in orbit in a newly purchased Behemoth in no time. However, the issue with the copper ore was still standing, the Kapitän claimed he was planning to sell it somewhere in Rheinland. He, beeing a Kruger employee, was granted permission to proceed - a dire mistake as later events will show.
With that all covered up we moved to Omega-7. Well, nothing big to report here. We met some miners and inquired how things were going on their part. They seemed quite glad to have us around. Here it was that Flieger Engel received a transmission from that Kruger employee we met earlier. Seemed like he was requesting help because one of our border patrols caught him in Hamburg. Shocking that someone working for Kruger lacks so much patriotism to even consider shipping anything to Liberty...probably an Ausländer. However, our guys on the frontlines succeeded were we failed - they made sure that his cargo won't fall into Libertonian hands.
After a full sweep showed no contacts we took our leave and headed back to Stuttgart. Here we met a Hessian vessel affiliated with the group that calls themself the "Rotfront". And unfortunately my report ends here - that bugger caught Flieger Engel and me with our pants down and sent us flying in our pods.
