In response to the developing situation in and around the Bajoran Sector, a small relief force is being deployed to the region. The USS Eminence along with the USS Celesta, USS Mediterranean, USS Guan Dao, and USS Cordoba are the closest starships able to assist, and will enter Bajoran space in several days in response to the general aid request. I am to inform you and other sector senior command officers that additional assets are being mobilized and will be deployed as they reach ready status.
The ships will be bringing materiel aid to DS9 and the surrounding planets, as well as medical supplies and relief personnel. USS Celesta and USS Guan Dao are due to remain on station and will further assist in patrols and defense efforts. USS Eminence, USS Mediterranean, and USS Cordoba are slated to return to Starbase 371 after taking on refugees, wounded, and personnel due for rotations out of the combat area. This of course includes any 38th fleet personnel in need of medical attention or due for combat rotations off the front, pending command approval.
Attached is our supply inventory. The majority has already been pre-allocated to set destinations according to perceived need. However, we do seen to have taken on a surplus of self stealing stem bolts if you know of somewhere in desperate need of a healthy supply.

I've just noticed the Eminence was pulled from standard patrol and is on course for DS9. You know I'm onboard with making sure you've got all the support you need, but please follow the procedure we discussed before reassigning my ships. Thanks.

Neema,
Apologies, I don't believe I did but I may have mistakenly set assignments for the wrong ship. I could use the additional resources here, however if necessary I can turn around the Eminence.
PADD displays remain the bane of my existence, but I'll be more careful in the future.

Captain,
The USS Celesta, USS Mediterranean, USS Guan Dao, and USS Cordoba are not vessels assigned to the 38th fleet and will have to respond to their own Command structure. I will take and use the Eminence however. Majority of the task force can be found staging at Deep Space Nine. When you arrive we'll provide you with additional assignment.

I apologize if this has all been rather abrupt. Our five vessels were the closest available starships able to respond to the general aid request sent by SFC, and it has been a frenzy of activity trying to get the aid packages sorted out and loaded. A patch being thrown into the breach ahead of what I assume is a more coordinated response. I am certain the other ship captains are having similar conversations with their respective flag officers.
Eminence was originally due to resume her original patrol route after we finished offloading refugees. That being said, we will go where ordered; if we are needed at DS9 then the ship will gladly remain at station. However, another starship will have to take on the refugees and wounded we were originally slated to ferry back into the core territories. I leave this decision and its associated logistics entirely in your hands.
