===Section Heading Found: Patrol===

After a long period of mandated absence, I began my patrol from Planet Hamburg. Upon powering up my Bergelmir's systems and entering High Hamburg Orbit, I received broad-band unencrypted propoganda from a Hessian vessel, designated [RHA]MikeStah, who was being answered by Reserve Piloten Hanz Merkel, (if memory serves), who's transponder, for unknown reasons, was displaying a designation of merely Military-Wraith. After a brief escape attempt on the part of the Hessian, myself and Herr Hanz caught him in open space, and eventually engaged. The battle went swiftly, with a Supernova charge from my Bergelmir ripping the hull of the Hessian vessel after a small amount of back and forth. Herr Stah was then transported to the Hamburg RFP division for transference into the prison system.

With the Hessian "threat" (if one were to consider a lone Hessian a true threat) eliminated, myself and Herr Hanz patrolled the core Rheinland systems, with little trouble aside from a few recruits from various factions seeking to test themselves against us. However, when we passed through New Berlin on our way to the Dresden system, we were astonished to find that somehow Herr Stah had escaped from prison, (perhaps bribing an official, or a Hessian spy on the inside, I might suggest a probe into how exactly he escaped). This time, Herr Hanz was allowed to take down the Hessian, which he did relatively quickly, with the final blow being the own fool's nuclear-armed mine. Given the nature of the armament, we assumed that the Hessian was killed in the blast, and continued on to sweep Dresden without further incident.

On a side-note, upon reviewing the imagery from my guncam, I realized that somehow the camera was incorrectly formatted, and all the images it had captured were corrupted to the point of being not worth the amount of time and resources it would take to correct them. (//Somehow my normal screen-capture method didn't work, I'll look into an alternate method for the future.)

Guten Abend meine Damen und Herren,

Report from 14.7.818 A.S
After training simulations at battleship Moselle in Braunschweig system, I took my fighter and flew to New Berlin. After some minutes I got message from Hauptfeldwebel Hans Putzkammer about new raid to Liberty. Our Rheinland fleet was standing by near Hamburg gate in the space. After few minutes I was on the coordinates and met here our fleet. We had there one Battleship, Cruiser and few bombers and fighters. Herr Putzkammer flew to the Hamburg system, and the rest of feet still near the jump-gate. After 30 minutes we got more new pilots and capital commanders. After 40 minutes was our battle fleet ready for the raid. Herr Putzkammer formed three wings. First wing (Wing 1) was under my command. I had three fighters in my wing (including me). The second wing (Wing2) had in command Gefreiter Koehler with pilots from WRF wing. The last wing (Wing3) were bombers under Putzkammers command. Commander of whole fleet was Hauptfeldwebel Putzkammer. Command of the cap-ships had town of the Kassel.

After few second Herr Putzkammer ordered to proceed. Our next Waypoint was Hudson jump-gate in the Hamburg. Near planet Hamburg our fleet met with herr Putzkammer and one more Battleship and Cruiser. Near Hudson gate we had in our fleet: Two Battleships, two Cruisers, nine fighters and four, maybe five bombers. Our fleet was ready. My wing had three fighters, wing 2 had four fighters and wing 3 had three bombers. (//over time came more fighters/bombers to the fight). Putzkammer ordered to proceed and our fleet moved out. After some minutes we were near Texas jump-gate in Hudson system. Near the gate came Flieger Jakob Metzger and I took him into my wing, because I had only three ships. Now was my wing ready. In Texas space we were mooving near Trader-line to planet Houston and after 2 minutes we got hostile signals on our scanners. Liberty Navy, they engaged us after few seconds. Herr Putzkammer ordered to engage. I marked target 1 for my wing, Liberty bomber. After some minutes later this target has been destroyed. My wing continued in attack on next Liberty bombers. Our capital ships destroyed one or two Liberty vessels, but one our cruiser got heavy damage and expoded. All his evac pods ejected and fled. Herr Krutt from my wing got heavy damage and his ship exploded. 20 minutes later Our fleet destroyed four Liberty ships when was my ship hit and I unconscious fall (//lagged out).

After 15 minutes When I waked, my ship was in open space. I was bleeding from my forehead. The fight still 11k near my ship. All systems were on green and I flew back to the fight (//I got permission for reengage). I got report from our fleet. Hauptfeldwebel Putzkammer has been destroyed, and I got fleet command. Our fleet now had five, maybe seven fighters and one bomber. Our cruisers were down, and battleships were waiting near plent Houston. The fight was no on 20k range near planet Houston. I took command and marked new target. Our two wings were attacking. Unluckily, Flieger Metzger has been destroyed after 10 minutes. Liberty navy got two more fighters and I spotted on my scanner two Mandalorians. The Mandalorians locked with one more Liberty fighter on my tail. My shields were going down quickly and I got report about heavy hull damages. All my wing-mans were down and in fingt still wing 2 with four fighters. Gefreiter Koehler called for backup, but the Mandalorians still on my tail. I lost all shield batt. After few seconds was my ship destroyed. My pod ejected and I fled.

Location: Near Trader-Line between Hudson JG Houston planet, Texas system.

during a routine patrol of the New Berlin system, I heard an RHA member broadcasting Marxist Propaganda over the comms station. After ordering the Hessian to cease all broadcast and his refusal to do so, I went into Braunsweig and commisioned the help of one Ullr of the Reserve fleet to help me locate the Hessian and, hopefully, intimidate him into silence.

[RHA]R.Raubtier

Ulrich.Jung of the Reserve fleet encountered a hostile, Raven.Storm, with a freelancer ID. I asked if he needed assistance, he replied he had the situation under control. A civillian, one keil.hanz was feeding the pirate bots und bats, and Raven.Storm still was drained of them and fled the conflict.

The RHA member had silenced himself before we could find him, and shortly thereafter I released Piloten Ullr from duty. I continued my patrols and within ten minutes a saw something I found peculiar. A recruit with a Liberty Defender ship deep within our Capitol! One Formalhaut. After several attempts to contact and receiving nothing but silence, I executed the Libertonian. It was the easiest kill I've had yet, and I beleive the contact must have been intoxicated.

Finally, outside of planet New Berlin, a freelancer, PlanetWalker, was carring a load of H Fuel off of the planet. I asked him where he was heading, with no reply he began heading towards a trade lane, which I disabled. He began to head a different direction and when ordered to halt, he came to a stop a short ways away from the planet. I asked again where he was heading, again no reply. After one more time asking, I told him that in New Berlin, Rheinland Military is law and I ordered him to land. During this whole exchange he maintained radio silence. After his failure to land, I warned I would shoot. After which time I drained his shields. He never shot back, not did he try to evade or land, he just turned his ship. Unfortunately, the Freelancer would not comply to my warnings, at which time I was forced to destroy his vessel and return his Pod to the Police Base on New Berlin.

That is all for today, mein Herrs.

Guten Tag meine sehr geehrten Damen und Herren,

Went on patrol a few days ago, and immediatly recieved a distress call coming from a Polizei-Kadett.
According to him, a hostile gunboat and two fighters were doing some bad stuff in Frankfurt.
The first thing i did after hearing this was to send a distress call to the Military, which was answered by Herr Vizeadmiral Engels.
While i was rushing for my Bergelmir, Herr Vizeadmiral Engels prepared his Cruiser.
Together, we headed out for Frankfurt. As we reached Mainz, we were just a minute too late as a trade ship was just blown into pieces. Of course, we immediatly attacked them.
I've been lucky enough to destroy the "Ahoudari" type gunboat, but most damage was done by Vizeadmirals' Engels Kreutzer. 1

While we were busy in Frankfurt, we recieved a distress call about a Liberty Fleet invading Rheinland via Bering.
I splitted away from the Vizeadmiral, heading to Braunschweig to pick up my Wraith as he ordered.
Well, undocking from the Moselle again, i couldn't believe my eyes.
A Spatial flying under the flags of the Liberty Rogues entered the system. 2
Of course, I attacked the Spatial in order to destroy it, needless to say that I succeeded in doing so. 3
However, due to this delay i came too late to Hamburg to do anything there.

[color=#FFCC00]
Soldaten,

As most of you already know, the Wraith of Vizeadmiral Alec Voelkel has been shot down by the Liberty Navy Gold wing during a raid conducted against the Liberty forces in Texas. Abandoned by the retreating Military wing, we had little hope of his survival in the hostile environment.

MND Agent "Blitz 8" and his companions dispatched to investigate the case has come up with suitable evidence regarding the Vizeadmiral still being alive. His ship's escape pod saved his life, not only did he eject successfully, but the low EM signature of the pod successfully managed to hide it from the Liberty Navy sweeps of the area. Blitz 8 determined that his Wraith's wreckage, along with his escape pod was recovered by a Junker vessel. The callsign and class of the ship is yet unknown, but the Vizeadmiral definitely still can be found within the Texas system.

A rescue operation has been authorized. At [color=#FFFFFF]1600 SMT today (18. 07. 818.), a small fighter contingent will be amassed above Hamburg. Led by the RNC Hansa, Vizeadmiral Voelkel's gunboat, which I, Major Mauser took temporarily charge of, the mission of the task force will be to track down and rescue Vizeadmiral Voelkel from whoever has him captive.

Since Texas is heavily monitored by Liberty forces, the dispatched fighter wing will have to keep a low profile and avoid detection. Once the Vizeadmiral is located, bring him or his pod to the Hansa and then depart the area.

Should the rescue operation for some reason be compromised and attacked by Liberty forces, deliver as much damage as possible, then return to base. If the Vizeadmiral is not located, an auxiliary force will be authorized at 1800 SMT, 20. 07. 818.

Notify me on a private channel if you're willing to fly in this (suicide) operation.

Signed,

Major Philip Mauser

[font=Lucida Sans Unicode]Guten abend, sehr geehrten Kommandants.

I've just arrived on Westfalen, directly from Gefreiter Koehler's hold. It was a rescue operation under command of Major P. Mauser, the one under rescue was Vizeadmiral Voelkel. His ship went down yesterday, and unfortunately, his transmitter was broken before he got shot. As we have been informed, one of junkers has captured herr Voelkel and we headed into Texas to find him.

Assembled squadron was consist of:

• Major Phillip Mauser aboard RNC-Hansa
  
• Feldwebel Lisa Thome - Einz
  
• Gefreiter Guntram Koehler - Zwei
  
• Feldwebel Franz Krutt - Zwei
  
• Feldwebel Helena von Gross - Einz
  
• Feldwebel Hans Klemmer - Drei
  
• Gefreiter Paul Fischer - Drei
  

Force was separated into three wings: Einz, Zwei und Drei. Wing Zwei was first to catch up with lone Junker ship, when Hansa sounded the alarm...

Major Mauser was caught in plight by Liberty forces, wing Einz headed there first to give assistance. Right there I scored another 3 downshots. Unfortunately, one of the best pilots of Liberty were there, Hansa was shot down inevitably. Fight continued, Feldwebel Thome's coolant began to leak and she had to disengage from this battle. Gefreiter Koehler went in for assistance, we were left in number of two against three of them. Odds were not promising, I've got shot down by one of them. The rest of journey of mine was in my escape pod inside Koehler's cargo space.

===Section Heading Found: Patrol===

During a patrol of New Berlin space I encountered the LPI IFF'd transport Laki.Topalovic. I hailed and requested the captain cut engines. She did so and I conducted a cargo scan. The Laki.Topalovic was ID'd as Freelancer. I inquired to the captain if he was aware that his IFF was squaking a Liberty transponder in Rheinland space. He seemed unaware of the problem, nor that he was making himself a target. Instead of firing I judged it be better to avoid an inter-house incident.

I escorted The Laki.Topalovic to Fulda Border Station in the Frankfurt System where he jumped to Sigma-13. On trade lane from Holstein to Fulda we encountered three Hessian recruits who were destroyed.

Upon his departure from Rheinland space I provided the captain with points of contact in order to have his IFF repaired in neighboring systems and advised he should not return to Rheinland until the IFF was repaired. I additionally informed the captain that this incident would be reported and my warning to him logged.

Guten Tag meine sehr geehrten Damen und Herren,

I wish to do a small report about the rescue of Vizeadmiral Voelkel yesterday.
As Frau Feldwebel von Gross mentioned most parts already, i just wish to say that even though my coolant had a little problem, i could take the pods of Major Mauser and a few of the crew members of the Hansa with me back to Rheinland.
I just wish to add a small footage of the strikeforce heading to Texas:
Footage

And as noone has reported it yet, der Herr Vizeadmiral is safe but has to visit a hospital regularly for medical checks and observation for a few days.
That is all.

===Report #2===

Origin: Battle Strausberg, New Berlin System.
Ship: Wraith - 90-ARKM-N45
Formation members: None - solo patrol

Report begins:
Patrol began off of Bonn Station. A complete patrol of the New Berlin system was conducted. No cargo or enemy traffic to report. Patrol continued to Hamnurg system.

Encountered IC Freighter Solaria.Taake as it passed Planet Hamburg. I hailed the captain and requested their engine be cut to zero for inspection. The captain complied but had some impolite comments for the Rheinland native tongue. Ship was loaded with Superconductors. As I began to question the captain about point of origin and destination she became agitated. This along with the captain's tone raised my suspicion. I requested the captain dock at Hamburg, drop cargo or return to the Hudson jump gate. The Solaria.Taake chose to return to Hudson. I escorted the ship to the gate and remained on patrol at the facility to ensure she did not return.

Six Unioner fighters engaged me at that location. I had no choice to engaged as they had disrupted the trade lane back to Hamburg. They were of minimal skill and were handled quickly. A course was then plotted for Hamburg where an additional 4 Unioner fighters were harassing the dock master at the docking ring facility. I attempted to communicate a cease order to their formation but it was ignored. I engaged and destroyed all 4 vessels.

Patrol continued to Altoona Station where I intended to dock to refuel and refit. The station was under attack by 4 Unioner fighters. I immediately engaged and destroyed the aggressors. I then docked with Altoona.

During my layover at Altoona reports began to come in of a LN fleet massing on the other side of the Hudson gate. Multiple vessels in Hamburg system continued to relay these reports. it is important to note that I did not encounter any Liberty Forces at any time. Continued observation of communications once I had relaunched demonstrated that the LN forces had rerouted to Texas system. Multiple inbound craft via the Hudson gate reported this information.

I conducted inspection of the IC ID'd freighter The_Black_Pearl. The captain was cooperative and polite. The ship was en route to Bonn Station.

Course was plotted for the new Berlin system. Patrol completed and re-docked with Battleship Strausberg.

Origin: Battle Strausberg, New Berlin System.
Ship: Wraith - 90-ARKM-N45
Formation members: None
Location of Incident: Tradelane : New Berlin to Frankfurt Jumpgate - Coordinates 4G

Report Begins: Battleship Straussberg had assigned me to a simple house cleaning mission in the Frankfurt system, a Unioner cleanout run. I was to rendezvous with additional Rheinweir forces once I made the jump from New Berlin space. Upon entering the New Berlin to Frankfurt tradelane my cruise was disrupted in section 4G.

A Corsair heavy fighter, Jose.Carlos was disrupting the lane ring by firing on it. There was another ship in the distance, Fernando.Zeres. He was not ID'd as Corsair.

Jose.Carlos hailed me - Transcript as follows:

Jose.Carlos: what do you want military
[RM]Fl.Erich.Rall: Hailing Jose.Carlos cease fire and leave New Berlin System.
Jose.Carlos: Negative

Jose.Carlos then opened fire on my ship. The ship in the distance that ID'd neutral to me sent one message:

Fernando.Zeres: engage military

I was out matched and decided that a retreat was the strategically correct option. The addition of this second unknown vessel tipped the scales against me.
