The Memoirs of Lieutenant Colonel Carl T. LaFong

Preflight Conversations

Talk to Shotglass:

Hey there, Major Maverick! Can't offer you anything alcoholic, sorry.
I heard you'll be flying again today.
Most of the pilots are already in the Briefing Room already.
I hear there's still no communication out of Goddard.
But I'm hoping that the Kilrathi only wiped out the colony's comm satellite, not the colony.
I've got a cousin on Goddard. Zach Siegler. He's a shuttle pilot.
And his wife's a Chief Engineer. If you hear 'bout either one of them...
Let me know, and I'll try an' get hold of them myself.
But you better get to Briefing right now, Major.

Mission Briefing

Colonel:

All right, we don't have much time.
We're making full speed to Goddard.
And the crews are doing emergency repairs on damaged fighters.
Early telemetry indicates that no Kilrathi capital ships...
...stayed behind in the Goddard system, but we've had reports of some smaller ships.
Therefore, you Killer Bees will go search and destroy.
Scour the Goddard system, and engage and destroy any remaining Kilrathi.
Tactical shows bogies heading this way...fighters left behind to hunt for 'sports.

Colonel:

Kappa wing is $C and Hunter. You'll start by going after those fighters.

Colonel:

Once you've taken care of them, you'll swing out to clear our path into the colony.
Here's the setup...
...you'll jump to Nav Point One, where long range scans show something moving. Delete it.
At Nav 2, you'll find a Dorkir-class troop carrier. They may be trying to leave the system. Don't let them.
When you've accomplished these objectives, return to the Claw.
Next is Maniac and Spirit on Beta Wing...

The Colonel briefs the other wings as you consider your orders...

Colonel:

Remember, there are a quarter million colonists in danger. Don't make any mistakes, pilots.
Dismissed.
