Good day, Comrades! Myself and Captain Alvarez of the CPW Social Credit have just struck a blow against the murdering Corsairs! I linked up with the Social Credit outside Zvezdney Gorodok, and we proceeded to the Omega-3 system after receiving reports of Corsair activity in that system.

Immediately upon arriving in Omega-3 system, we received a distress call from the MitraTudo, a mining vessel. We confirmed that two Corsairs had struck the mining vessel immediately outside Freeport 1. The Corsairs ID'd as El.Asesino, flying a Gladiator, and El.Demonio, flying a Praetorian.

As there were no Zoners present to enforce the No-Fire Zone, we engaged the Corsairs. Also present were two members of the Smokeones, a Fat Penguino and a Fat Paulie. They assisted us in destroyng the two corsair vessels. The entire operation took just over two minutes, with no losses on our side.

From there, we received reports of another Corsair, this one a member of the Sails operating in Bretonian space. We tracked him into New London, but before we could find him, my ship developed an engine imbalance and I was forced to return to base. Captain Alvarez's report can fill in the remaining information from here.

I certify this report complete and accurate to the best of my knowledge.

Lieutenant Commander Robert Thacker

Comrades, this may be nothing, but during the attack against the Corsairs, Captain Alvarez gave me reason for concern. As I mentioned in my report, the engagement in Omega-3 took place within Freeport 1's No-Fire Zone. Normally, I would respect the Zoners wishes and avoid a battle if possible. Considering that civilian lives were at stake, I feel that we were fully justified in defying the No-Fire Zone.

What gave me cause for concern, however, was Captain Alvarez's attitude towards the whole thing. I will post an excerpt from my communications log.

[01.05.2010 01:48:05] SCRA|CPW-Social.Credit: Now unlike Katz, I don't care about Zoner no fire zones
[01.05.2010 01:48:22] SCRA|CPW-Social.Credit: if I see an enemy, I will shoot it where I need to.
[01.05.2010 01:48:27] SCRA|Robert.Thacker.: Not as if they would mind as much in that situation. The Corsairs broke it first.
[01.05.2010 01:48:34] SCRA|CPW-Social.Credit: indeed he did

Again, it may be nothing, but I would expect complete loyalty towards our Premier from a Captain of the SCRA.

If this comes to nothing, I apologize for wasting your time, however I thought that deserved to be brought to your attention.

For the Revolution! For the Red Dawn!

Lieutenant Commander Robert Thacker
