<span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: comic sans ms;">Intelligence Report:  432nd Fwd MS Team (North African Sector)<br/><br/>Cpl Sam Richter, reporting.<br/><br/>The initial engagement of the 432nd F-MS-T met with moderate success, and garnered a good deal of information about the enemy in this sector.  While the engagement would classify as a loss, given normal circumstances, the overall objective (that being the discovery of the fate of a GM-suit patrol, and circumstances permitting, rescue/retrieval) was met, with the sanitation of all non-recoverable Federation Assets, as well as the engagement of Zeon forces stationed in the area.<br/><br/>After an initial ambush set-up, Zeon forces were able to, with some rapidity, to muster reinforcements, which rapidly outnumbered the six Suit-Class units of the 432nd, not to mention the sole sensor truck assigned to the team.  Even with the specialized 'Sniper'-class suit in attendance, the author's assessment of the situation deemed a withdrawal necessary.<br/><br/>What's more valuable, at least in the mind of the author, is the mathematical data provided.  The speed at which the Zeon units were able to reinforce suggests that their base of operations would be far nearer than the Federation would like ('Too close for comfort' seems to be the opertaing phrase, here), and given the speed of advance for a normal Zeon suit, it would be easy to calculate a possible sphere of operation for this base.  However, due to my reduced clearance, this data must be used and analyzed by higher powers than me.<br/><br/>Recommend commendation for Samson, and the other team members (Myself excluded).<br/><br/>Message Ends.<br/><br/>CC:  4432nd Cmdr (Samson), North Africa Sector Command</span><br/><br/>Sam looked at his hand-written AAR, and shrugged.  Either the new boss would like it, or he wouldn't.  Sam decided to leave it on his desk, and wander over to the abr to scrounge up a beer or three.  It had been a long day, and there were sure to be more to follow.
