Honourable Admirals,



This is the third report regarding Operation Balance. The report is split in two parts.

(1) Today we went the usual route to Leeds. We encountered three Gallic Battlecruisers with escorts, which so far wasnt a problem, but later on we were attacked by a gallic bomber with the callsign {B}Tonnant-B-01. Since we had no fighter escort and I was not willing to rist a longer fight under that circumstances we retreated, the bomber right behind us.
After some time he seemed to deem it ineffective and left. We then went to Newcastle, leaving our prisoners on the Macduff.

(2) Later on we moved to Leeds again, this time with the help of Commander Seeley French. When we arrived everything seemed calm. Then we got attacked by another battlecruiser group. We fought them back, whereafter we got reading of a trader on our scanner ( callsign Thomas.G.Galvalon )
The trader in question was moving military vehicles towards planet Leeds. We stopped him and he instead delivered them to our forces, with the help of Cdr.French and a vessel of the Junkers Congress ( callsign .:j:.Britanicus ).
When they started, a Valor with escort appeared out of nowhere ( likely the east Leeds smog cloud ) and attacked them. We moved in to help them and some minutes later the fight was over.
After that we retreated to New London, where I had to drop the prisoners of on Southampton Shipyard due to a distress call.
I hope they were relocated to one of our Battleships as planned and can be interrogated like the others.
On a side note we got accompanied by an Auxesia vessel while we delivered the military equipment ( callsign A/)-Bird.of.Passage ). It acted friendly and later on helped us, but that incedent in question will be topic of another report, which I will not file.
