From: Capt. Idris Mariseth, Flight Administrator
To: Lt. Loric Kantinomeiros, Tactical (Security) Suboperations
Subject: Proposals for future exercises

Your proposal of 5/13, for inclusion in exercise designated ROARING EDGEWINDS, has been rejected for the following reasons:

1. Ancyran units are not trained in microgravity operations and space safety.
2. Neither EAVS nor skinsuits are available for the given unit composition.
3. Even if standard skinsuits were available, necessary tack and equipment would interfere with their operation, and vice versa.
4. A squad of this unit composition cannot be accommodated, volumetrically, within a Marlinspike-class MAV without significant modification.
5. Neither skinsuits nor EAVs are rated for physical activities involved in Rampaging Beast Style melee combat.
6. It is not possible to bite from within an environmentally sealed helmet.
7. Commodore Corrével requested proposals from outside the box, not from outside the bloody warehouse.

The details of your proposal to run boarding and boarder-repelling drills with and against Ancyran bear cavalry has, however, been forwarded to the Operational Training Command for their future consideration.
