Commander,
Greetings. My name is Enrique Martinez and I am interested in joining the 202nd.
I was born on Malta 25 years ago and was raised to be a pilot, like many Outcasts before me. There was nothing spectacular about my upbringing: I scored well enough in school and my piloting is above average. Upon being granted my wings, I managed to commandeer a train, the Traveler, that I have used for smuggling missions into the heart of Liberty space. There were several close calls, but I have managed to keep my ship intact so far.
The riches I gained from such a lucrative route allowed me to buy a Sabre from the Malta docks in short time. Due to my lack of experience with the Corsairs, I hastily named it the Praetorian, a group of warriors I had read about from ancient Rome on Terra. At the time, I didn't think anything of the funny look the ship dealer gave me...
Buying a Sabre was the best thing I've done. I have explored all of Outcast space and visited most of our bases. I have flown into Bretonia to assist our allies, the Mollys. I have entered Liberty space to assist the Lane Hackers, Liberty Rogues, and the Junkers. With difficulty, I have explored Rheinland and assisted the Hessians and Bundschuh. I have explored the border worlds and I have located several routes to the Corsair home system, but I haven't had the courage yet to explore that system.
I've assisted the Outcasts at the recent battle in Omicron Eta against Corsairs. Although I didn't last long, I hope this shows my loyalty to Malta. I have also performed pirating activities both alone and with members of the Blue Lotus Syndicate, most recently the ship Zapp.
I may not be the best pilot around, but my loyalty is to Malta and her orange grasses. I hope this is enough to grant me admission into the 202nd. Thank you.
