Tally-ho chaps,

I began at Birmingham, expecting a customary quiet afternoon greeting new arrivals and checking cargo manifests. Well, I nearly choked on my tea as I undocked! I observed a cheeky blighter attempting to harass traders within 2k of the station! Needless to say, I turned my guns on the chap, allowing the trader to make off safely. The fellow engaged me, but I wore his shields down and had nearly made a jolly big hole in the hull of his Barghest bomber when he decided that discretion was the better part of valour and headed to the Magellan system.His ship's id is "Black Sun - Alex Nelson", though I can only imagine the surname is some kind of dashed sick joke.

Later I joined Constable Lawrence in New London. We tailed a corsair fighter Eagle_one and a ship which has been on previous reports, the Lorenzomus, an Osiris class cruiser. These ships violated Bretonia space, and in comms declared they were on their way to the Gaian zone in Edinburgh to take down a gaian who owed them money. (At this point I nearly had a fatal bout of head-scratching as the intelligence reports in my study indicated that the Corsairs and Gaians were allies of sorts.) We later intercepted these ships in Edinburgh once reinforcements in the form of a battleship (Cpt. Frog) had made a rendezvous with us. The nasty oiks chose to engage our two light fighters, allowing the Battleship to down the cruiser and turn his guns on the fighter. Constable Lawrence was forced to eject, I believe he may been struck by debris from the cruiser. I pursued Eagle_one to Islay base, but the defense flak was heavy enough to delay me while he docked. I recovered Lawrence's pod and returned him to New London. Lawrence was unhurt and the chap's nerves of steel and determination in doing his duty for the Queen are exemplary.

Towards the end of my patrol, a well-known individual Sir Charles Wellington, alerted me to the presence of two more corsairs in New London. He took care of one, and together we managed to clip the wings of a certain Capt. Jack Sparrow. There were several policemen in his hold who required medical attention. It seems this individual was on a rampage and could have been the cause of many deaths were it not for the vigilance of Mr. Wellington.I returned the recovered pilots to the medical facility in New London and ended my patrol.

I therefore submit the following:

a request that Sir Charles be acknowledged by NSY for assisting me in my duties
a formal charge of attacking a BPA officer against Black Sun-Alex Nelson
a record of my continued satisfaction with the performance of the Hussar Class Light Fighter - I have never been so proud of Bretonian engineering
