At about 20:00 hours on 29 September 2008, I responded to a call from Elbe Station Dispatch to investigate a robbery at Alster Shipyard. After speaking with the general manager, Herr Becker, a recent break-in resulted in the loss of over 300 engine components specific to the Rheinland gunboat.
Apparently, a small hole measuring 6x8 meters had been cut into the side of the station to gain access. The breach alarm system had been disengaged at the time.
During my initial inspection using micron spectroscopy, I discovered trace amounts of gamma radiation along the hull cut lines. This is a common energy signature of lasers used by the Unioners and the Red Hessian Army.
I interviewed the captain of the ship “RANGER_Paladin” who was in the vicinity of the station. But he had no information to offer. I will monitor his activities going forward.
I will continue my investigation and report in when I have more information. I'm forwarding this report to Admiral Krieger so he can follow up a possible connection to the Red Hessian Army.
For the Gottkanzler.
