Tarkine Down Security Ticket Final ReportSTC Combat Engineering Company (CEC) has completed the Tarkine Down Security Ticket. The ticket ended after 11 of the scheduled 12 months with the contractual default by the Tarkine government. The up-front payment (MCr1.3), 11 monthly payments (KCr170/mo.) and the full success-only payment (MCr1.3), which had been held in escrow. During the contract execution period there was one armed incursion on the starport itself, on the day the CEC made planetfall. During that engagement, three armed insurgents were killed, and an unknown number escaped capture. The CEC prevented damage from artillery with point defenses. At the request of the Tarkine Planetary Defense Forces (PDF), the CEC made one excursion off the starport to recover three PDF armored vehicles and their crews, which had been immobilized by insurgent activity. The CEC Security Platoon also made one excursion to the capitol city to rendezvous with security vehicle 4 (S4) which came under fire while on payroll detail to the city. STC suffered no casualties or loss of equipment. Casualties amongst insurgents due to CEC fire are estimated at nine, including one known dead. The Aslan mercenary platoon suffered one grav tank and crew casualty due to CEC fire. Expenditure of ammunition was modest (value included in financial statement below). At the moment, the CEC is in possession of the starport, and does not anticipate any resistance to our departure. However, indications are that the new government, being formed by the members of the Independence on Tarkine Alliance (IoTA), will offer a follow-on contract for the continued defense of the starport. My recommendation is that STC negotiate a contract while the CEC remains in possession of the starport for a period not to exceed two weeks. I would advise within that period, whether transport off-world is required. Proposed minimum terms and conditions include: full functional and personal immunity to civil or criminal prosecution or indemnity for STC and its personnel for any and all damages and casualties due to actions occurring prior to the contract being finalized, a repatriation bond for all STC personnel and equipment held in escrow off-world, and monthly payments of at least KCr170. If a follow-on contract is not finalized within that period, the CEC will prepare their equipment for departure per the original schedule. Regardless of the outcome of the contract negotiations, I also
recommend immediate purchase of two reconnaissance drones and
implementation of the recommendations included in the 11/07/2010 after
action report. (Author: Ken H.) |

Mingu's MarvelsSuSAG, LIC Press ReleaseSuSAG, LIC FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE **** ALL PRESS CHANNELS **** FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE **** ALL PRESS CHANNELS **** FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE **** ALL PRESS CHANNELS **** FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE **** ALL PRESS CHANNELS **** SUSAG SECURITY FORCES PROTECT NON-COMBATANTS AND PRIVATE PROPERTY Dellis, Tarkine/District 268 -- 311-1108 IE During the recent disturbances at the capital, private security professionals under contract to SuSAG, LIC, secured and protected the business district from potential looting and other dangers. Civilian personnel, including employees of SuSAG, other interstellar corporations, and local businesses, received protection and medical treatment. No lives were lost in the operation, and SuSAG’s security professionals were pleased to report that they did not fire their weapons in the course of the operation. Prior to the arrival of the SuSAG security force, fighting in the area had injured six civilians, all of whom were treated by a SuSAG medic and transported to Dellis General Hospital during a halt in the fighting negotiated and mediated by the SuSAG security team leader with the local combatants. Buildings and property in the Dellis business district had sustained some collateral damage and looting prior to the arrival of the SuSAG security force. SuSAG is making available low-interest loans to facilitate repairs and restorations. SuSAG security forces remained in the business district for the entire period of the recent disturbances, assisting with evacuation of civilian personnel, protecting the perimeter and buildings, and maintaining communications with all organized forces operating in the city to ensure the neutrality and safety of the business district. SuSAG security forces drove off several groups of looters during the night. SuSAG reaffirms its commitment to obedience to the applicable laws of every location where it does business. SuSAG takes no position on the composition of any local government and does not interfere in local political disputes and discussions, but always stands ready to advise and consult with local parties if requested and to the extent allowed by local law. SuSAG offers its congratulations to the new government of Tarkine, and looks forward to continuing its mutually rewarding relationship with the world's people and government into the future.
