▪ Notizen des Kapitän:
We jumped to the Earhart system around 18:30 Berlin Time where I attended as a security pilot for the DHC Barge, Holstein with fellow DHC and BDM pilots. It took around two hours to gather the precious materials from these not well known systems. This mining operation was quite smooth, we only encountered one coalition freighter, and it was quickly destroyed by our gunboat.
After we finished the mining operation, we left the system via the Edinburgh jumphole and started to move back to Rheinland through Bretonia. This endeavor was abruptly stopped when a Bretonian battlecruiser, the "Audacious" intercepted us in the Leeds system. After a little talk with their captain, they stated we would be escorted to the omegas by them, and soon other Armed Forces ships joined us.
But this peaceful situation did not last long because in the vicinity of Leeds they started demanding the Holstein's cargo, which, about previously, they said was not a problem.
We tried to talk some sense into them, to make them understand that by their own law these are not contrabands, but clearly they are not really well versed in their own laws. So we were literally pirated by the Bretonian Armed Forces and the Holstein had no other choice but to give in to their demands. But to their bad luck, an unknown Kusarian ship arrived at the scene before they could beam up the stolen goods and destroy it all. They all gave chase to the foreign ship except one, who continued to escort us into the New London System.
From there we were released from the Bretonians escorting and could go on our way. We changed direction to the Manchester system, where the Holstein moored at Birmingham for the rest of the night. The arrival to Birmingham happened around 22:00 Berlin Time. That will be all for today.
