I attach a consolidated version including our civilian candidates [ACTION REQUIRED BY YOU], which has been Presidentially approved. Please contact me if there are any issues. The President and I look forward to hearing of the outcome.

[Billy Bluestone, Presidential Office]

Commanded by Lt Col Maddie Zola, late ESS ONE GIANT LEAP. The Regiment's overall strength is 50% below establishment. [55 personnel in post]

The 757th Regiment 'The All Esteeler Screaming Voles' is made up entirely of volunteers drawn from a number of regiments and all personnel have been subject to the usual psychological screening. All bar a handful of the personnel who volunteered and were accepted for places in Lt Col Zola's Regiment for this mission are female [50 of the total.]

Lt Col Zola, herself, is a heavily-decorated veteran of numerous missions and is an expert in a number of military fields, is a graduate of the Marine Staff College and a former instructor in Marine Intervention Tactics at the Naval Warfare School. She understands that it may be necessary to operate without combat robot support for sociological reasons while co-operating with other polities.
