Ladies, Gentlemen,

With my greatest pleasure, I announce my return to the active forces from a well too long hiatus. Although I participated in the A.D.M.I.N. rescue mission some days ago, today was my first day on patrol. And I must say... it felt good.

Still, before I could start my routine, I was on planet Cambridge and had some very sensible files to deliver to our headquarters on New London. Despite the short distance, these files were too important to be carried carelessly in a single Hussar, and thus I contacted BAF Lt. Richards for an escort. With the help of BAF Lt. Richards, we were able to deliver safely following items to the BPA)Anvil, which I have still access to.

• A list of civilians under surveillance
  
• An Alias List
  
• Files on government officials
  
• Secret industrial research x2 (//Actually, I planned to give these to a researcher character I'm planning; hope you don't mind storing them on the Anvil for a while.)
  

After having delivered this material, I started my patrol and went to Leeds. There, I was able to catch two smugglers named Toby and NeoDope, carrying Gaian Wildlife and convinced them to release it on Planet Leeds. Apart from this incident, nothing noteworthy happened on the patrol.

Glad to be back,

Vimes out.

But the Raven, sitting lonely on that placid bust, spoke only
That one word, as if his soul in that one word he did outpour.
Nothing further then he uttered; not a feather then he fluttered--
Till I scarcely more than muttered, "Other friends have flown before--
On the morrow he will leave me, as my Hopes have flown before."
<blockquote>Then the bird said, &quot;Nevermore.&quot;</blockquote>
