I am drawing up a total of three after action reports on the aerospace battle which should put a bow on it and take us into the next chapter of the Battle of Rockland. Enjoy the first! My condolences to characters who didn't make it.

Report by Chief Medical Officer of the Sohei: Doctor Quincy Tsenovi

Medics on onboard the orbital dropships managed to save eight ( 8 ) of the Tennyo following their valiant battle with the Jaguars above the planet. I am most pleased to report that Shizukana Kaze received only the lightest of injuries during the battle and has already returned to duty in the aerospace bays helping Techs attempting to restore fighter craft to operation. Also, Donna Black and Yoko Kijo should be able to join Kaze in a matter of hours after under going additional treatment. Mariah Cassetti remains under observation and may return to duty in a few days depending on her physical improvement. Unfortunately, Zuzanne Agnika and Asuka Uehara will probably not be able to rejoin the fray as their injuries will require weeks to heal. Wounded even more grievously in battle was Ju Juan who has a long recovery ahead as I understand it. The Medics are hopefully of a return in a few months but I will have to personally evaluate his condition at a hospital following our action here. Cecilia Utchakov is something of a minor miracle as she was pronounced dead and later revived after being rushed to sickbay. Severely wounded in action she has lost both her right arm and leg in combat. Only time will tell if she can ever return to active flight duty. I regret to inform you that the following pilots did not survive the battle; Commander Noriki Sorenson, Nana Yamada, Haruka Uehara, and Kim Mi Sun. Their remains have been recovered and their heroic sacrifice in the service of the Dragon should be noted.

A total of six (6) Clan Pilots were captured after the battle despite futile attempts to evade recovery. Of these, Point Commander Zaesh was in the best possible condition with only superficial wounds in spite of his completely uncooperative attitude. He has already been transferred to the brig for interrogation and transport to a holding facility following the operation. Pilots Sindrol and Belinda will join him shortly after undergoing observation for their injuries in sickbay. Pilots Cerndal and Dreven will have to remain in sickbay under guard until operations are concluded as their injuries are too severe. Point Commander Damien is in the worst shape out of all the prisoners and remains unconscious after losing an arm in combat. His return to minimal activity is likely months away at best and it is possible he could never fly again. Medics have informed me that many of the Clanners have talked about and actively tried to commit suicide rather than be captured. I would therefore humbly recommend that Guards be placed on extreme vigilance lest the Dragon lose potentially valuable prisoners.

Thanks Doc, I'll add your Aerospace Tech to our personnel!

Damage Report by Chief Aerospace Tech of the Tennyo: Tomoko Harada

The loss of all twelve Tennyo fighter craft to the Smoke Jaguars naturally makes recovery and salvage efforts that much more difficult but after reviewing the damage there is room for hope. Thankfully many of our aerospace fighter designs had a second identical or similar model in service. These ‘pairs’ should enable us to restore at least one of them to operation shortly because we can not only cannibalize the one for parts but we carried twice the parts for repairs in the field. Sadly, both Sais were the exception to this as they were too badly savaged by repeated Jaguar attacks to salvage either of them. In a few days a SL-15R Slayer and SL-25 Samurai should be operational followed by a Thunderbird and Transgressor. Further work is required to see what sort of loadout these craft will feature but I am confident that this will be accomplished within the week. The Shilone, the other Samurai, and maybe the Stuka can be return to service eventually after our return home but right now we lack all the necessary parts to get them flying. Due to damage done and salvage operations to get the other fighters ready a Slayer, Transgressor, and Thunderbird are now being written off as completely destroyed. This brings the total damage to five fighters lost, four returning to service soon, and three salvaged for future service.

The still alien nature of Clan technology as well as our unfamiliarity with its inner workings and the complete lack of any spare components makes efforts to repair their salvaged craft impossible at the moment. In accordance with directives from command we have simply recovered and packaged the remnants of the Jaguars sixteen aerospace fighters. I’d estimate that nine of these fighters could be returned to service if they were InnerSphere craft but since they are Clan maybe four. It is hard to say without the exact know how or opportunity to work on them, however, that is my best guess. The sealed cargo containers are scheduled to be loaded onto the Mule class Dropship as soon as possible. This orbital pickup will occur sometime before our departure from Rockland.

Interrogation Report by Commander of the Marine Detachment: Kenji Araki

The questioning of Point Commander Zaesh was quite revealing and required little physical effort. The aging commander of the Fourth Point of Charlie Command Star of the Psi Galaxy Command Trinary piloted a Xerxes during the orbital battle. Disabled by the DCS Fukuryu this veteran trueborn aerospace warrior of the minor Hyon Suk bloodhouse displayed a clear hatred of the Draconis Combine in particular and our ‘dezgra’ tactics. Going into detail about House Kurita’s ‘ancient treachery’ perpetrated against the Star League and drawing a direct link to our ‘deceitful tactics’ used against his Smoke Jaguars Clan during the invasion there wasn’t much doubt about his ‘righteous cause’. The same can be said for the other prisoners who have attempted suicide or ‘bondsref’ as they call it. Every single one of them is convinced that we are mere bandits unworthy of any honor and one implied some sort of great punishment awaiting our unit on planet. We are working on obtaining specifics but wanted to inform you as soon as possible that these Jaguars can’t be trusted to behave in an honorable fashion. Since our goal was to duel them in honorable combat from the start I though it would be of the utmost importance to inform you immediately of these first impressions.
