Audra had to make a few calls to determine the location of Captain Boulay.
When she finally got through to the ground commander of the police action
forces that Captain Boulay had gone to, she learned that David Boulay was
out in the field with a company of marines.� That they had not reported in
as of yet, but were due to report soon.� The CO would try to get in touch
with the company that the JAG officer was with, and get back to her once he
had word.� That would take a little time....

Audra was surprised to hear that Boulay was gone.� There was little that she could do beside wait.� She made a not to it, and sent it along to the Admiral.

A short time later a call came in from the field commander of the police action that Audra ha spoken with before. "Commander, I am afraid that I have some bad news. Captain Boulay was on the front lines in a newly secured area. At least we thought it was secure. Anyway, Captain Boulay apperently went out with a patrol, and encountered a hostile force. When the re-enforcements arrived they found only a few survivors. Captain Boulay was not amoung them. He is listed as missing in action. A standard search is underway as we speak. We will update you when we have something of interest."

<This day is getting more and more interesting," thought Audra to herself.  The news was not good.  "Thank you for getting back to me so quickly," she responded.  "I hope that you will have good news when you report back," was her sobering reply before closing the comm line.

Lorin turned to Audra again a short time later, "Commander have you located
Captain Boulay yet?"

"In a way, sir," she said.  "He is on a field assignment on <I forgot the planet's name>.  Apparently, a police action there has not been going well.  He was with a team of Marines when they were attacked.  He is missing, sir."

"Pull Joseph Garibaldi to help you if need be...I need to know this
information please."

"Aye, sir."  Audra turned to her station.  "Ops to Commander Garibaldi.  Please report to the Operations Center."
