I'll be frank. When I first started work on this Operation, I didn't expect the situation with Rheinland to escalate to the ridiculous damn war you've found yourselves engaged in. So, you have my condolences for their aggression. Ugly a business as it is, we can't allow one war to narrow our focus to the exclusion of Sirius-wide events.
Gallia, to put it bluntly. No doubt you've seen that bit of chest-pounding their King sent out. Sounds an awful lot like he's just invited himself in. Signing it off as 'Our Benevolent King,' is just the icing on the bloody cake. Now, I'm not suggesting open aggression against the new kids on the block, but if they're going to throw their gear over our side of the fence, I'd like to see what's on theirs. This whole 'specter of our fleets' bollocks sounds more like propaganda every time I read it, but there could be some substance to it.
I want to get some of our people on the ground in Gallia. Just charging right on in would be idiocy, so it's looking like we'll have to maintain cover on the way over for our lads, as well as once we're inside. Ideally, I'd like clearance to move a Recon force to the Battleship Suffolk, under the cover of a joint training exercise. We won't be there for long enough to need any substantial facilities, just until the media and civilians get the sight of us out of their systems. From there, the Wing will relocate to Tau-31, and conduct the Operation.
The full mission objectives are being sent to you now.
