Bonjour,

I accepted command of the battlecruiser RNS Chanzy this past week at Avallon Station in the Burgundy system. Although I will look back fondly on my time aboard the Volta, it is already apparent to me that service in the reserve fleet was chafing and anxious. We left stardock with a full load of countermeasures and cruise disruptors, but without our Predator anti-ship missiles. I was told these were only available to be disbursed in large amounts at the front.

We transited Dauphine and Languedoc, passing into Tau-23 the same night. We moored alongside the Guillestre for twelve hours and took aboard a complement of fifty-six Royal Marines. That night, many of us spent our first sleep outside of our Gallic homeland. The anticipation of finally reaching the front made it difficult to rest. In the morning, we entered Tau-31 and passed into Leeds. We took on additional stores at Glasgow Outpost and we first laid eyes on occupied Bretonia.

We spent the next few days running shakedown patrols in the system. We are now moored alongside the battleship Castres in New London and are taking aboard missiles. Words cannot convey the excitement I feel to be in sight of the enemy's capital.

Très Respectueusement,
Capitaine de Corvette Alaric Jean-Paul Favager d'Astier
Commandant, RNS Chanzy

Transmission Terminée
