1. Rear Admiral Justin Spence has acted outside the boundaries of his office and has fled from justice. He has commandeered the U.S.S. Vasily Zaytsev and is presently fleeing towards Cardassian space. His objective is unknown. It is believed that Captain Alexi Ivanovich Markov and Commander Steven Higgins are collaborating with Spence.
2. All available vessels are to locate and detain Admiral Spence, Captain Markov, and Commander Higgins.
3. All available vessels in the Area of Operations listed (See Appendix A) will conduct a thorough search along U.S.S. Vasily Zaytsev’s last known flight path. Upon making contact with the starship, responding vessel will attempt to force Zaytsev to surrender. If this proves futile, responding vessel will disable and board Zaytsev. Responding vessel will then take Admiral Spence, Captain Markov, and Commander Higgins into custody. Responding vessel will provide a security force to Zaytsev, and escort her to the nearest Federation base.
4. All Starfleet assets are available for use during these operations. U.S.S. Vasily Zaitsev command codes are included in this OPORD (See Appendix B).
5. Field Commanders will follow established Chain of Command. In order to prevent widespread panic, this operation is classified as Top Secret. Only Major Commands, Starbase Commanders, and Starship Commanders will have access to the information provided. All communications regarding these operations will be encoded under the attached encryption codes (See Appendix C).
