This is Commander Beckett, reporting in.

Patrols from the California gate had detected an approaching 'Storta'-class Destroyer inbound to West Point. Unpon final clearance, the vessel, an 'MNS-"Dead_Hand"' cut the lane, turning and breaking off. We gave chase, soon accompanied by Commodore Shepard. Upon breaking out of the Detroit field, the destroyer cut engines and turned towards us, giving a head on attack before proceeding to flee. The Canberra took some hits, and eventually the order was given for the Helena to respond. Upon arrival, the destroyer's fate was sealed, and with the fire of both ships, the Dead Hand soon went up in flames. Capture evidence of the ship's being put out of action was taken by the Helena. We then returned to port at West Point Academy, patching up what damage we'd taken.

That is all.

Commander Alara Beckett
Liberty Navy Third Fleet
L.N.S. Canberra Commanding
