Date - 12th July for minimum 4 weeks
Location - Jackson City
Forces required - 75,000 FEV and a minimum of 16 TUs
Mission outline - Captains Ostlund and De La Croix
I cannot say how grateful we are to the two of you for saving Jackson City. Although many thousands of our friends and fellow citizens fell during the battle, you averted a greater tragedy that could have threatened the entire future of the colony.
Now I have another favour to ask of you.
The battle for Jackson City on top of the battles around Jersey City and the ongoing situation with Carson City has left our military resources close to breaking point. At the present time, we can only field a single company to protect the key facilities in Jackson City. Estimates are that it will take at least 4 - 6 weeks to re-constitute the Jackson City Brigade.
We need at least another two companies of troops to give any form of defense to the city and I am calling upon your two forces, being by far the largest in the colony, to provide those troops! Also, you know the city layout well and have formed good relationships with the key individuals in the city.
We will pay you an extra 1000Cr per week to provide these forces and will replace any material losses you might suffer in that time.
We would expect you to deploy both armour and Infantry units to the equivalent of two companies (minimum 75,000 FEV and 16 TUs).
I urge you to agree to take this contract. If you do not, I would find it difficult to award any further contracts to your forces knowing that the population of Jackson City is in peril.
Regards
Colonel Hermann Proost - Defense Minister
