Part Sixteen

"The last time, we weren't prepared for an attack by the AFM and it damn near cost us." President Acres responsed in reference to the Alcasian Federal Military's attack on Alcasia that occurred several weeks earlier.

"Commander, where exactly are these Combat Assault Forces headed?" President Acres inquired of Commander Sanders.

"The Alcasia Sectors, Alsan Sectors, Allins Sectors, Aliinen Sectors, Alicasan Sectors, and Alcins Sectors." Commander Sanders responded. "According to their hyperlight signatures those vessels will be in the area mentioned within a week."

"That gives us a head start." President Acres responded as he closed the VACS transmission between his Video Audio Communication Screen and the Adsasia.

The image of President Acres seated in the executive building's presidental office disappeared and the VACS transmission from the Anacoda returned to full screen. "Honestly sir, I hope we bought them enough time." Colonel Kellson commented.

"Colonel, we are both in agreement about that." Commander Sanders responded. "Once Captain Thompsons and Captain Kellog's flight crew are back onboard the Anacoda. Go over the intel collected from the Berabs System."

Onboard the Anacoda, Colonel Kellson who sat at the desk in the CO's office terminated the Video Audio Communication Screen's transmission with the Adsasia which caused the image of Commander Sanders seated in the Adsasia's CO's office to disappear.

He went over to the intercom unit by the door controls and activated it. "All command staff, this is the CO speaking. Report to the briefing room on the double."

Throughout the Anacoda, Deputy Chief Engineering Officer Lieutenant Commander Lerrans, Deputy Chief Armory Officer Lieutenant Commander Herrans, Deputy Chief Military Police Officer Lieutenant Commander Merrans, Deputy Chief Communication Intelligence Officer Lieutenant Commander Hendersan, Deputy Chief Docking Bay Officer Lieutenant Commander Kevin Thompson and the other third watch department heads proceeded to the Anacoda's briefing along with the Anacoda's second watch department heads who had just came off duty.

Captain Timothy Brians, Captian Kevin Lonns, Captain Kevin Berrans, Captain Jesse Kinns who were in charge of the various departments onboard the Anacoda during the third watch duty shift entered the briefing room and found seats around the large conference room table. They were joined a couple of minutes later by Colonel Kellson, and the current off-duty second watch department heads.

"Hendersan, as you are the 3rd Watch Chief Communications Intelligence Officer, Your department's duty shift will go over the intel gathered from Thompsons and Kellog's recon of the Berabs System." Colonel Kellson said to Lieutenant Commander Hendersan as he slid a datapad over to him. "Thompsons, all docking bay crews will remain on alert as we are not out of the woods yet. Herrans, likewise I want the Armory manned continously. Everyone get to your stations."

Once Colonel Kellson had said this, Lieutenant Commander Lerrans, Lieutenant Commander Herrans, Lieutenant Commander Merrans, Lieutenant Commander Hendersan, Lieutenant Commander Kevin Thompson, and other Deputy Chief Officers onboard the Anacoda exited the briefing room and proceeded to their assigned duty stations.

In the Alicasan Sectors which was located directly north of the Alcasia Sectors, Commander James Kevins who had command of the Alcasian Republic Military Infantry Assault Groups, Aerial Assault Groups, and Combat Assault Groups on and near the 3,000,000 planetary systems entered the war room of Alicasan Sectors Alcasian Republic Military Field Command Headqaurters on Alicasan One.

"How are our preparations coming?" Commander James Kevins commented to the dozen or so Alcasian Republic Military officers and enlisted personnel who looked down at a large computer access terminal screen which showed the positions of every Alcasian Federal Military base, spacedock, communication relay station, scanner array, communications array in and around the 300 million planets.
