The Memoirs of Lieutenant Colonel Carl T. LaFong
Pilots:
- Major Pitak Puzaki
- 1st Lieutenant Marsha Shannon
Ship Type:
- Scimitar's; assigned to the TCS Eagle's Talon
Mission:
- The Eagle's Talon was low on fuel. We were assigned to escort fuel tankers back to the carrier from their common jump point at Nav 1. Heavy resistance was expected.
Synopsis:
- At a distance of 40,000 kilometers from Nav 1, four Drathli were observed moving on an intercept course with our patrol. Increased speed to maximum velocity and broke formation to attack. Just before igniting the afterburners, a small mine field was encountered. Speed decreased to 250 KPS.
After leaving the mines, afterburners fired to full, and course altered to circle and approach enemy formation from the rear. Dralthi discover our position before maneuver has been completed, and turn to engage. Break and attack ordered. Turns to left and right divide the enemy's attention and individual attacks are begun. We commence firing with the mass driver cannons, using afterburners to follow when the Dralthi turn away. All four Dralthi are defeated with minimal damage to Scimitars. Rendezvous with tankers completed.
Four Gratha attack the tankers on return route to the Eagle's Talon. Taunts used to divert attack to Scimitars. Targets selected according to attack patterns. Gratha actively after the tankers are targeted first. Mass driver employed to weaken shields and armor, then Javelins and Darts from the rear to destroy targets.
Resolution:
- Two Drayman tankers safely returned to the Eagle's Talon.
