This report, again, contains sightings of Liberty Navy vessels deep inside Rheinland space.
Receiving reports from Battleship Schwerin regarding multiple SCRA| vessels within the system, we assembled a squadron led by Major Sittlingen, containing myself, Feldwebel Braun as well as Gefreiters Kreutzer and Von Limburg, we were about to move out to Omega-15 system through Dresden when Gefreiter Braun - Who was moving to Strausberg from Hamburg to rendezvous with the rest of the squad - was ambushed by two Navy vessels, a Light Fighter and a Bomber. So, moving out to eliminate the hostiles who were near the Hamburg gate in New Berlin, we managed to finish them off rather quickly and regroup at Strausberg to head to Omega-15.
Moving out to Dresden on our way to Omega-15, we encountered a Hessian vessel at the lane to Bautzen. Following Major Sittlingen's command, I engaged the Hessian who turned out to be a rookie, and managed to destroy the vessel in no time, even though the pilot tried making a run toward Giftnebel. After the Hessian ship was destroyed, I moved out toward Omega-15 jumphole to regroup with the rest of our squad, and there, right after the group jumped, I caught a [RHA]SOA- vessel jumping to Dresden from Omega-15, who turned out to be in chase of a [51st] vessel retreating from the fight with SCRA| to repair and resupply.
Reporting the situation to Major Sittlingen, I was ordered to cover the retreat of the [51st] ship, and then rejoin the group near Schwerin, so keeping the [RHA] vessel occupied until the [51st] ship was at a safe distance, I made the jump to Omega-15. Unfortunate for him, the [RHA] pilot had decided to follow, and found himself outnumbered and outgunned right after the jump. Having to move out to help our forces against the SCRA|, Major Sittlingen ordered me to get rid of the [RHA] and then rejoin our squad for the main fight against the SCRA|. Doing as I was ordered, the [RHA] ship - Which proved to be more of a threat than the last two hostiles we had encountered on our way to the system - was destroyed, and by the time I had refilled and refueled the ship to move to the sector of the fight, it turned out the SCRA| forces had decided to retreat and my presence was not required anymore.
Returning to Schwerin, I picked up a LWB| vessel, who - unsurprisingly enough for a former farmer - decided to run instead of actually fighting. After a long chase, he finally headed toward Dresden jumphole, where one of the [51st] ships offered to take my spot in the chase. So, seeing the situation resolved, I returned to Schwerin with Major Sittlingen's permission to have the minor damage done to my ship repaired, and also fill this report.
