PLEASE BE ADVISED:

SSSF IC has taken command of the investigation into the loss of Bowyers'
And Fletchers' Company delivery vessel "Archer-51", declared a total loss
at position 60C32C6D-FDE7-44F5-8A8B-5045C558214A on date
e9925b719427a129c21f222a4ee9058f44538813b0bde8115f060b398031f697cbeb322a
9a1963f472d18314f54e3cd758f922cb1ea9c3870270832962e7a4e1 with one soul
aboard.

The basis for SSSF IC authority over this investigation is ITTO Regulation
438.7342 ("Engagement Of Civilian Shipping Companies By The Military") as
amended and in force as of the launch date of
7ca53122e3f02c8f6a10177ea02ad6ada8b7043a694f36caa09b4c1f4cf99bc9f2a5fab3
fd5d3c38a74b1aff63edfd3eb6b1128c8186f1a20e3b21b133832a67. This mission
was operating under the authority of SSSF Delta 93 as manifest in B&FC
requisition number BFCR-38979-99-43-86-8890605968, and SSSF IC authority
is specifically mandated by section 42 ("In Event Of Partial Or Total
Loss.")

This investigation will determine the following:
- Why the Archer-51 was launched without its full crew, but instead with
  only one SPC1 (Matthew STEPHENS, now deceased) on board.
- Why the Archer-51 was launched without its manifested cargo.
- Why SPC1 STEPHENS did not issue a Mayday call when damage to the
  Archer-51's hull was detected, per QEC reception of captain's log at
  9c7eee4516383eee4dde69d121d1e79abf9231d8873a3bff21948d13d154734458916e
  12c4baa5535769e8921c722840d31b472138c31ece9a95b83fbaf22a30.
- What were, and are, the whereabouts of the remainder of Archer-51's crew
  on and since launch date.
- The disposition of Archer-51's cargo.

ALL MISSIONS TAKE NOTICE: You are bound by treaty to cooperate with this
investigation upon request. If you have any information that may be of
interest or value to the investigation, please communicate to your
nearest SSSF IC outpost.
