Knight Six> We've got our first op, folks. Meet the R.P.S. Galena - she's a 300m long ethanol tanker who set off from Anliana yesterday. She's part of the commandeered merchant effort to keep Jab'Muthjal supplied with fuel and defensible in the face of K-H black-outs. Last night she sent a mayday saying she was experiencing rolling electrical problems. She broke from the convoy and set course back to Anliana, who sent a response confirming their ETA. However, in our record of the response signal we discovered an encrypted sub-encoding that included a priority keyword 'Asherah' provided by King Five. The rest of the sub-message was coded, but the keyword alone is enough to suspect USC involvement. The Bishops conclude the ship has been highjacked and could be used to ram the drydock in Anliana - something that could put the naval war effort back 2 years and almost guarantee a re-invasion by the USC. We sent an anonymous warning to the Coast Guard and port authority but thus far the only action we've seen is a helicopter flyby of the ship, which only yielded a light signal of All-OK and no signs of trouble on-deck. A news helicopter has also made a couple trips out for B-roll. Fireteams will deploy and secure the ship and see her safely to dock. To help break the coded message we also need to secure cipher file from the hijackers - it could be anyone of them that has it so we need all network and memory implants undamaged.

• INOC quick-reaction transport will carry fireteams to Anliana International Airport.
• Anliana P.D. can provide transport to the port or other on-site locations.
• To prevent media discovery non-INOC transportation to the ship is required. Coordinators will need to organize infiltration route. The Galena is equipped with a helipad stern of the com tower and a small craft-bay forward of the drive-room, so both air and sea options are available.

1. Secure Bridge
2. Secure Power Room
3. Secondary: No Neck or Head Damage to Hijackers or Crew Members

• Once the Galena is safely docked fireteams will disembark and Port Authority security will manage the site.
• A.P.D will provide the return to Anliana International.
