Captain Hiltraud Kaiser Promoted to Admiral, Battleship Westphalia Now Under Construction.

This is Jim Hill with the Galactic News Network. Today on Planet New Berlin, the acting Chancellor of
Rheinland, Admiral Niklaus Reinhardt, aptly named, has now officially been chosen as Chancellor of
Rheinland. He has stated that there will be no significant changes from before our beloved Kristy Pryde was
kidnapped. Her disappearance is still under investigation.

Due to his new position, he has promoted Captain Hiltraud Kaiser to Admiral, a bold move as she is the first
female Admiral in Rheinland since the Exodus. There are a lot of different opinions on this subject, most
seem to be positive, though.

Captain Freelamen of the Cruiser Vineta had this to say, "Admiral Hiltraud, one of the Fatherland's best
pilots, commanders, and leaders. She is the only one I would like see to take such a position. It will be an
honor to fly under her command."

The Commander of the Orvidos had a similar idea, "It's an honor to serve under such an admirable and
cunning leader. I'm sure the new admiral will lead us to prosperous victory and glorious destruction of our
enemies."

Though, some people remain a bit skeptical despite her immaculate record and service to the Rheinland
Military. Sam Asher of the IND, for example, "Hahahah!! A woman admiral?!? You've got to be joking!!...
There better be a kitchen on that battleship!" He burst out laughing shortly after and for several hours more.
Admiral Kaiser might not be happy about him, there have been some reports about previous meetings
between these two not going so well. Don't worry, we'll be there to cover anything that might happen!

The new Admiral's Battleship is now under construction. She has chosen to name it the Westphalia, and it
shall be Christened at an undetermined time and date. We hope to be there, too, but it seems the
government may be keeping the ceremony private.

We've also received a message from an unknown source, and it seems to relate to Sam Asher from earlier:



Jim Hill,
Until next time, signing off.
