LIBCENTCOM - Planet Manhattan

It wasn't long after Jones had just shortly arrived from his inspection in Bretonia. The expditonary fleet was constantly occupied in New London not only by the gallics, but also by the many threats that roamed that space, giving them consistent skrimishes. None of it being good news. Either way now he had finaly made it back, only to be greeted by the command duties, further supplemented by the logistics corps. Yet the first thing to come to his mind was the recent tragedy that struck the LNS Harmony.

Shortly after landing, Jones put his sunglasses on and went on the pickup vessel. "Sir! Welcome to Manhattan." Commander Henderson, who had been chosen as his escort, salutes him upon seeing him. Henderson could notice that things were rather tense just by looking at the Admiral's Face. "At ease, Henderson. Thanks. They chose you this time, huh?" Jones was good at looking casual, even though his mood or outside could betray him a bit. "Yes sir. Following the attack on the Harmony the headquarters are increasing security for ranking officers. That means you too." Jones smiled and let out a little chuckle. "Right, Anything the command says." Stepping in the vehicle as Jones closed the door, Henderson started the car towards Fort Bragg. "So you heard about the attack too?" Henderson took his eyes off the road for a second. " Yeah, I read the report. Real disaster. We're trying not to make it big news for the media or so." Jones nodded. "And it stroke us in the wrong moment as well. Morale is bad as it is."

The vehicle finally passed the Fort Bragg's blockade and were now going past . The Warrant officer halted the vehicle as per the routine checks. Henderson hastily replied. "Commander Andy Henderson escorting Admiral Vice Alan Jones." The warrant officer saluted the two and checked with the list and gave them permission to pass. Jones told Henderson to hold up and put went closer to the window, talking to the officer. "I'm expecting a rather important visit today. Rear Admiral Victoria Knight. I don't expect her to be delayed." The officer acknowledged right away noticing the rather strict tone of the Admiral. "Y-Yes sir!" Jones nodded and saluted the officer before telling Henderson to drive further.

Finally at his office now, Jones would take off his navy blue dress uniform jacket and hang it somewhere next to the door, put his case next to the desk drawers, and then put his glasses on his table then taking off the hat and put it over a stack of papers that were from matters of lesser importance. just as he makes himself comfortable there was a call from the operator on the hall. He sighs as he picks it up. "Sir Rear Admiral Knight is here to see you." Jones quickly responds. "Yeah, don't let her wait any longer. Let her in." Jones took a deep breath and leaned back on his chair.

Shortly after there was a knock on the door. Jones stands up to open the door to meet Knight rather than the average usual meeting where other officers would greet him and such. "Good to see you Knight. Please take a seat." Jones shakes her hand and lead her to the chair in front of his desk as he moves to the other side. "I'm sorry to have heard about your losses on the attack and the men that never made it." He sighs. "I'm glad to see that you and your officers are fine..."
