Alliance Still Active

Reports in this morning that the alliance are still active in the region. A small patrol made land on Hale's on what they referred to as a routine patrol.

The two man patrol stayed on the surface for a considerable time before shots were fired. Intercepted transmissions indicate that the patrol was fired upon by Archer Bleich and Cadda Ninetails, and responded by returning fire. Both Alliance soldiers were downed in combat.

This is the second time on report that the Alliance have come down without initiating combat. Previously they have stated they wish to reopen negotiations for R&R for the troops stationed on the Sun Tzu.
