Agent in Training Booth here.

We had a happening in Alaska that could've caused a major confusion towards LSF and Navy officers. During it I was required to unnoficially take my first leadership role inside the force, where I managed to talk out two Order fighters already engaged from killing a navy ship midbattle in Omicron Minor, and got the whole squad out and safe. I hope this reflects good in my sheet and future inside the organization.

What follows is a mission report and transcription.

-Vic.Thorn

Report transcription:
We got a warning from Kay Kyser (Repensum) in the LSF channel about a intruder in Alaska. I undocked and was called into the group channel, where Cyclone and Repensum already were. Shortly after, Navy Vic Thorn was added as well. While on my route from New York to Alaska, the group asked for info about the target, which Kay prontly gave. Arriving there, we all initiated pursuit.

Only Kay was in visual of the target, with me and the others rushing to intercept him. None of us were together, but each at least 10k apart. The hostile was reported to have docked at Battleship Atum and then left in the general direction of the Minor jump hole. He jumped to Minor, with Repensum closely in pursuit and we all followed.

Inside Minor, we resumed pursuit, with Cyclone staying in Alaska due to Nomad's problems. I got into temporary short scanner range from Order operative Amentet.One for a few seconds. I was then contacted by both him and Jeremy Hunter to get all ships out of their home system at once and they were going to engage, which I disregarded in favor of the chase. When it was reported that the Rheinlander jumped to Delta, I broke pursuit and headed back to Alaska. Heading back, I advised Cyclone to break pursuit, but we lost contact. Minutes later, without any more check-ins in group channel and with the long-range scanner indicating Vic in Minor and Kyser in Kappa, I stepped in and ordered both to return to Liberty space. Vic turned around, while Kay got out of the group frequency and remained in pursue. I contacted his ship directly, and a short while after he complied and turned back.

After I got in NY, I contacted Amentet.One and told her that our sole purpose at Minor at the time was to pursue a Rheinlander intruder, which she and Hunter replied about a fight going on between Vic and Amentet.One. I contacted Vic and Amentet at the same time, asking both to disengage. Amentet reported back asking me to call Vic off and they wouldn't chase, while Vic asked permission to continue the fight cause he was sure he could beat both. I still ordered him to disengage due to unecessary conflict, which he promptly did. Amentet contacted me again about the situation, and after exchanging a few messages, I sorted it out. She assured me the Order was now in pursuit of the Rheinlander, and that they wouldn't hold any grudge whatsoever to Navy or LSF for the intrusion and fight at their home system. Five minutes later, Vic emerged through the Alaska jump gate and I headed to dock at the Missouri.

Outcome: No loses, pursuit fruitless.

-End of report-
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My personal considerations towards the situation and participants follow:
*Kay ignored the order due to his excitement at the heat of pursue, and I don't think he is the type that would disobey orders often.
*Navy's Vic Thorn is an admirable officer, helpful in the field, capable in combat and foresighted enough to disengage in order to stop long-term/worse consequences.
