The Lieutenant that the Insurgency sent to negotiate with me has been rather brash, to the effect of openly informing me of where these civilian evacuees are being sent to. Concerningly, Planet Erie is one of the two locations; the other, Planet Yuma in Coronado.
I don't want us to be overstretched between too many systems, so I'm ordering a small scale force of your choosing to be redeployed to Pennsylvania immediately. Given the on-going attacks by Insurgent Forces in New York, we don't want to remove too many of our capitals from its defence. Any transports harboring and providing logistical aid to these evacuees must be immediately intercepted. We cannot allow them to freely enter Liberty.
I will liaise and coordinate with the Liberty Security Force and the Fifth Fleet once I return to the Anchorage. Until then, I need to know the Fleet Assets that get tasked with guarding and patrolling the vicinity of Erie.
I trust that you will action this and report back in good time. I would have requested Commodore Van Leer to assist you, but he is otherwise engaged in the frontlines.
