Executive Officer’s Log, Bennet’s Badgers

We’re all back under one roof, at least for now. The militia are deploying a detachment under the command of Supervisor Wickham to the far side of the planet for extended exercises and have invited Lydia to travel with the force. Considering Wickham’s cheating in our duel, I have strongly recommended against this; however I have been overruled.

I will arrange a training exercise, with Wickham and Lydia working together, to at least judge their readiness for this. I cannot stop this, but at least I can prepare Lydia with the best advice I can offer.

Training Exercise

Elizabeth Bennet will judge the readiness of Supervisor George Wickham and Lydia Bennet for this deployment. Both sides should try to execute a wide variety of attacks.
