Subject: Iconian War, Captain's Eyes Only
By now, everyone is aware of the break out of war with the Iconians. I'm sure you're aware that their first strike against the Alliance was New Romulus. I'm sure you're aware of the destruction of Lae'nas III. And I'm sure you know that while we held at New Romulus...our victory was costly. One quarter of the Allied forces have been destroyed.
In addition, Qo'nos itself is under siege once more. Diplomacy with the Iconians as of current remains a non-option.
What you might not have heard, and what remains classified to your rank for now Captains, is that a small squadron lead by Captain Tom Paris took out an Iconian Station in hostile territory meant to bring the Solenae species and their fleet out of subspace and into our space.
The 146th Fleet has orders from command: We are to hold the Beta Ursae Region, and give nothing to the Iconian forces without challenge. To that end, mercenaries who volunteer to fight the Iconians or assist in day to day Starfleet duties shall be welcomed to do so, as we are all in this mess together. Should you note someone attempting to take advantage of the war to perform illicit activities, stop them. Even in a time of war, illicit activities will not be tolerated as they pull resources away from where they need to be.
Those who wish to go face the Iconians now, should speak to myself for transfer. Be aware, I cannot let every ship go to the line.
If there was ever a time that we needed to be at our best it is now. There are no do overs here, there are no second chances. There is only victory. Because there is no other option.
