COMM ID: [color=#99FFFF]Captain Rachel A. Baker TARGET ID:NAVAL COMMAND SUBJECT:DAILY PATROL REPORT ENCRYPTION:Medium PRIORITY:Low
Captain Rachel Baker here, reporting a successful, though rather uneventful patrol mission. At the outset of my patrol I was hailed by an Interspace Commerce vessel called Dawn Under Heaven, whose captain was requesting an escort through the California system due to fears of Piracy. I complied and escorted the ship from West Point to Planet Curacao without a problem. The pirates who had set up camp along the lanes in California rabbited when they saw my approach. After arriving in orbit of Planet Curacao, the Dawn Under Heaven proceeded into Bretonian space and I turned and headed for New York again.
Upon arrival in New York I headed for Norfolk Shipyard, where I encountered a rather belligerent Freelancer piloting a small Yacht called Smooth Criminal. He ran from me at my request to scan his hold. I pursued him into the Pittsburgh Debris Field and was able to stop him, only to find out he was in possession of a meager amount of Synthetic Marijuana, which I confiscated and destroyed after levying a 200,000 Credit fine. I warned this pilot that he shouldn't run from Navy pilots for such foolish reasons, and that if he did something like it again, or with any other Naval Officer, he'd likely be killed, but I let him go for the time being. Despite letting this vessel go, I don't trust him and I suggest that other pilots keep an eye out for him in any suspicious situations.
Additionally, one of our newest pilots, Michael Wright, alerted me to the presence of a Sentient AI Cruiser in the Colorado system, codenamed 01101101. The vessel is apparently gathering information on human behaviors...to what end, I don't know, but we made it exit Libertonian Space and head for Kusari. I don't like toasters with brains hooked up to warships...they make me nervous...
Anyway, that's my action report, It was a much more exciting patrol than the report lets on, trust me.
