Welcome to Noble Team

23.07.2552 Subject: Reassignment To: [CLASSIFIED] S-312

I commend you for the exemplary manner in which you’ve conducted your duties while serving with ONI/SectionTHREE/Beta-5. You were chosen not only because of your initiative, discipline, and ingenuity, but also for your skill as a pilot. All of these were demonstrated admirably during your counter-insurgency operations on Mamore [13.04 - 10.05.2552]. I'm glad to have NOBLE's action element back up to full strength and look forward to having you on the team.

Urban Holland Colonel, USW NOBLE, Commanding Officer
