Representative Leonardo de Silva,

A pleasure.

What you have provided us with is what looks like a sighting in Tau-37 of Enclave forces. The evidence is not quite complete proof of cooperating with IMG, but it certainly raises a great deal of suspicion on the part of IMG. The cynic in me suggests IMG are indeed guilty of working with Enclave, I do not understand why Enclave would be in Tau-37 if not to help their friends.

I cannot act with much fervor on such evidence, but I will do two things.

1. I will send some minor forces, to investigate Enclave involvement and engage Enclave forces along with their IMG allies (if that is the case)

2. I will attempt to contract some mercenaries to act on BAFs behalf in that far flung system.

Based on further developments our commitment will change. I do have concerns about supplies, and may contact other allies for assistance in setting up our borderworld patrol forces' logistics, any supplies locally you can provide will be helpful.

Also, if you wish to finance the mercenaries, make an anonymous donation to the discretionary BAF budget and it will find its way to the pockets of forces helping you in Tau-37.

I don't care where Enclave go, our revenge will know no bounds.

Regards,

Admiral John Redmond
