SPD: Lorin/Vanderloo

[Pete Boulay]

> Lorin returned to his office and opened another

> shared your report with Admiral Lasiter and we
> are concerned about your level of urgency on
> finding the Captain and the other marines. Not
> only is Captain Boulay a high-ranking member of
> Starfleet-he is also my nephew."

>"So. What do you want me to do, Admiral, pull every resource off of what
>their current missions to look for your nephew? I don't think so. The entire
>sector can not shut down because one officer is missing. Now, as I have said
>before, sir, I am using all available resources. I have canceled certain
>missions and delayed others to free up resources to look for the missing
>personnel. I have pressed my counter parts with the planetary defense force
>for resources and additional intell. However, I can not just put things on
>hold just because of your nephew. Now while I am on the subject, sir, I don't
>care who he is or who he is related to. The only thing that I am concerned
>with is that there are nine (9) missing marines and one (1) Starfleet JAG
>Captain. Missing personnel always gets my attention. I resent the
>implication that I am somehow derelict in my duty.", he was quite indignant.

"You brought up possibility of derelict duty Admiral, not me. I believe you'd think different if a member of your family was missing. I will speak to you in four hours. Renaud out."
