Guten tag officers,

This noon I had a training day scheduled for a new recruit trying to enter our ranks. His name is Niklas Schulz. I am responsible to train him and it's my duty to make him a worthy pilot for our beloved Rheinland.

As we met in front of planet New Berlin, we got a alert from the ships with callsign BDM|RNC-Aegir and BDM|RNC-Leipzig. It seemed a Corsair cruiser was roaming the system with the name DTR-CNS>Pedro. Me and Niklas went to aid them with their search. The RNC-Aegir suggested we check the jumpgates and the known jumpholes but we didn't find any activity around them. During our search a Kruger security vessel came and helped in our search under the callsign Kruger|Rho-3.

Not long after the RNC-Aegir found the Corsair cruiser hiding in the Ruhrfeld near the Kreuzberg Depot. We rushed to the last known location he pinged us to. Unfortunately the asteroid field of the Ruhrfeld made it hard to locate him. It took us a while to find the fighting zone. Unfortunately the RNC-Aegir got disabled before we could reach him. It seemed the RNC-Leipzig got the right location. We asked many times for the location but the ship refused to answer our comms for reinforcements and decided to attack the DTR vessel on it's own shortly after. The captain's confidence in defeating the Corsair was misplaced as also his ship got disabled. Not long after Niklas, Kruger|Rho-3, me and another BDM agent called Frans Mueller with the rank of sergeant found the ship and managed to stop it from hiding again.

The Corsair ship was already damaged but still put up a big fight. We had to use hit an run attacks at different intervals to make sure our fighters and bombers could hit the ship while it was distracted by another. Our attacks made the already damaged ship even worse, but it was only when my recruit Niklas hit a critical component that the cruiser finally succumbed to it's wounds. I am very proud of him for this. Battlecam footage can be found here:

Evidence

Our improvised squadron returned to planet New Berlin and after saying our goodbyes I continued the basic duty training of Niklas. Cargo scanning and Rheinland laws were the menu for today. He shows promise. He still has some rough edges but i'm sure we can iron those out as he's a quick learner.

Für den Kaiser! Für das Volk! Für Rheinland!

Hochachtungsvoll,
Gunter Kunrad
Leutnant der Kaiserlichen Rheinwehr
