While on routine patrol over Los Angeles engaged two HF figters, Inferno and Chaos. HF Inferno was well equiped and flew expertly. We exchanged damage (despite being outgunned) until the LNS Redbear arrived and provided relief after which he withdrew. HF Chaos was a small fighter and did not engage. Continued to patrol and assisted (late unfortunatly, I'm sorry sir) the LNS Redbear. After she was crippled the HF Zuikaku withdrew. After brief persuit I doubled back to lend assistance to the LNS Redbear. All told, the engagement was a loss. I take full responsibility for my late arrival and my apologies to Cpt. Redbear for disregarding orders.

None required. My hubris led me to the battle. Your assistance was not needed, but appreciated.
My compliments,
Cpt. RedBear of the LNS-RedBear (frigate)
