Ens. Marten Piper reporting from Planet Leeds regarding operations taking place August 14, 818 AS.

We did it, command. The operation to intercept the Kusari Police guard escort of Mr. Kenji Shinoda went off without a hitch. During a patrol ordered by Fleet Admiral Bridge and led by Admiral Adama into Tau-29, we picked up Shinoda and his Kusari escorts near the Tau-31 Jump Gate. We held the guards off until backup arrived and then proceeded to extricate Shinoda.

On the orders of Fleet Admiral Bridge, I jumped to Tau-31 behind Shinoda and ran escort for him to Battleship MacDuff. We arrived there with no resistance.

Although Sir Henry Beaumont's ship was destroyed, his escape pod was recovered, leaving that the only loss of equipment. There were no casualties. Beaumont did manage to nick a Kusari ship before he went down as well.

Mark this one as an extreme success. We retrieved our man and nobody got hurt.

Shinoda is now in MI5 custody pending debriefing. I have attached to the end of this message a written transcript of all the communications received by my ship during the operation.

Carina, Regina, Imperatrix!
