Greetings officer,

Yesterday was another strange day in Leeds, since our forces were able to perform a full Bretonia clean sweap without flying more than 10k away from the planet.

It all started at 19h45 universal Sirius time, as usual, that is three Joker thugs hanging around the New London lane. After the official parley, our squad (Lt Adama, Ens. Keevan and myself at the time), opened fire on the offenders. Shortly after a four ouctasts 101st squad showed up, led by Garrison himself, who also jumped in.

Soon the situation turned to be out of control as more opponent joined the battle, including more BAF, Bounty Hunters and random pirates. Despite the rather chaotic process of battlegroup formation, we agreed on targetting a pirate repair ship who just ruined all our joint effort until then.

The pirate repair ship did provide the opposing force, which I was unable to fully identify to this point of randomness, with enough supplies and time to replenish them until its destruction. The outcasts then left the battle since a corsair group was detected in the nearby area, leaving the rest of the job to us. I cant really say what happened to the corsairs, but it seems they found some alternate targets while we were fighting ours. Hopefully, the nearby rogues spotted by the Ironclad choose not to engage in turn.

Then, after more than one hour of fight, the battle eventually returned to it's initial state : the BAF against the same three Joker's thugs, still live. However the presence of more of our forces, notably Lieutenants Hans and Shinoda, turned the battle in our favor and eventually destroyed the last target 22h30 universal Sirius time. The result of the following usual long range scan was amasing : Bretonia was completely cleared of any threats. It's just like if all local scums were sucked in the dogfight and then terminated. Then seing me exhausted after such a battle, Shinoda kindly offered me to handle the interview from a GardenPath reporter while I took my shower at the Derby.

------

Later, while I was having my rest at freeport one, Blair and myself also had an interesting discussion with some colonial remnants from the 88th wing. Although keeping it on an informal tone, I suspect Major Amateratsu and Lieutenant Kell tried to get intels about our relationships toward outcasts from us, mentioning here and there bretonian technology leak within the Outcast fleet or bretonian flagged shires hauling cardamine, the later being doubly worrying. They however could not prove their point. Nevertheless, they admitted to recycle our templar for their own use, confirmed that the Kusarian forces shot them first, and renewed their offer of cease fire. I leave here some part of the (noise filtered) communication log for your use, should you be interested with it.

Regards,
Lieutenant Martin Bridge.
