Crayter Military Reporting Facility

[Panzer]

A miracle happened, men. We received ORDERS!

I mean, I received them, but nonetheless it's a miracle in and of itself, that a legit order came through. That is despite there being a pair of garrisons along the way as well as one unfathomably deep and dark space beneath my bunk...

Anyway, yours truly got promoted to legitimately do what he's been doing thus-far whether HQ liked it or not. So whatever of you still grumbling about me being in charge - deal with it because I'm now more entitled than ever.

So, just as some good news came to me, by the power invested in me by them, unto you, mangy lot I render more good news. Henceforth we will be INTERCEPTING any and all premium scrap shiments in the region, since obviously Malta is their primary, if not only recepient. Instead of just blowing them up however, we will be making sure that the intercepted merchants deliver the scrap to IMG installations. If they for some reason can't comply and drop the goods off where they can do most good - blast them and call up one of those salvage fleet tenders we have. Can't waste valuable scrap, can we? It's "premium" after all.

I imagine the troops in the 15th won't really be too willing to stop all those scrap shipments and redirect them to our industries on diplomatic and moral grounds, but we aren't quite restricted knowing the ultimate destination of those goods. Make the best of it and as always - there's no auditors in the trenches.
