TO Lords of Admiralty: Disposition of HMS Dragoon

From: Commander Nobles-Stirling, Commanding Officer HMS Dragoon
To: Lords of Admiralty

Subj: Disposition of HMS Dragoon

Attachment: CNS - Admiralty to End Privateering

1. My Lords, the attached document being a general distribution, I am presuming that myself, and my crew, will be in receipt of new orders at some point in the near future. Since we are a liaison to the Privateers, and are part of Her Imperial Majesty's Armed Forces, it is my expectation that we will cease all asymmetric warfare operations covered by membership in the Privateers and return to routine service.

2. HMS Dragoon is a cloak-enabled Junker Wrecker class vessel acquired during the early stages of the conflict with the Gauls by using an Armed Forces black account for the purpose of conducting deniable deep raids. As such, she holds a formal commission, and is currently on the Classified List of Battle.

3. Research has shown that current policy does not permit Junker vessels in any of the formal Branches of Service. The Privateers effectively being contractors, and my command operating "in the ranks", our flying a Junker craft has not been a violation of this policy. That said, Dragoon is now rather caught in a crack between conflicting policies.

4. All of this being the case, please advise as to the disposition of HMS Dragoon.


Respectfully,

CDR Nobles-Stirling
CO, HMS Dragoon
