Subject: Sigma-19 Incident Report, 26.05.823

---

At roughly 21:17 this evening, the Communications department onboard Ogashawa picked up a distress signal coming from Guildmaster Keiji Namura in the nearby nebula. Interceptors were quickly raised to alert 1 and launched, even though hangar 4 was the only bay capable of handling fighter craft at the time, and it didn't take me long to run into trouble in the form of three Farmers Alliance ships. They all had similar transponder prefixes, as evident in the scanner logs, and their force composition numbered 2 Irezumi very heavy fighters and 1 Mamoru bomber. Namura was flying an Eagle, and I arrived on station at 21:19 in a Karasu interceptor.

After some intense trash talking, we began shooting each other. The fight ended in a decisive victory for Guild forces; three down on their side, and no losses on ours. During the scrap, I was able to down one of their Irezumis with concentrated gunfire. I'll be sure to let the ground crews know so that they can paint another tally mark on my ship.

I took some superficial damage to the hull on the side, resulting in the loss of my number two engine, but aside from that, the both of us made it back relatively unscathed. Flight logs are recorded below.
