Twenty-Four.....

Twenty-Four folded flags I will be handing out to families soon....

I deal with the loss of Offizers nearly every day on several planets and each time another falls I must steel my nerves to brace myself for the bellowing cries of mother's draped over the coffins of each one, The sunken faces of Father's asking themselves over and again on why they couldn't save them. The time I need to take in writing out letters to their families on how their work helped to make their homes and lives better. And each time I must swallow my pride in humiliation for having to put them into such lines of work...

I... I'm distraught Guildmistress by this act in Frankfurt... Publicly I have announced the end of co-operation between our parties but I must use logic and reason to see more into this situation. No longer am I able to hold back those of a higher power than I, and unless this ....incident... can be explained by you towards the Bundestag, I have no choice but to accept any orders they hand me.

There are three children and a wonderful woman waiting for me at home on Stuttgart every day I go to work. And every day that I have to go out of the office and into the field, I pray that they do not have a folded flag handed to them and the thought of one of them asking their mother "Why wont daddy wake up?"

Guildmistress Yukari...

Fix. This. Now.
