The Hale's Moon Militia was caught off guard by an unexpected Reaver attack. Quick response by several residents prevented what could have been a massacre as the town Militia assembled, holding back the attacking Reavers until they could be reinforced.
According to Deputy Mayor Genni Foxtrot, "We didn't get a lot of warning on this one. Woulda' been a lot worse, weren't for Nack and General and the others holding the line. Real violent this time too. More'n usual."
Casualty reports were lighter than expected given the severity of the attack, though several townsfolk are still recovering in the Infirmary. A request has been sent to the local Alliance command to honor their commitment to provide medical supplies in the event of an attack.
The patrol Frigate IAV Abraham Sinkov, normally on station in this region, is currently resupplying from the Cruiser IAV Sun Tzu, and there is some speculation as to whether the presence of an Alliance warship would have prompted the Reavers to attack a softer target.
