Maritime Support Regiment declared operational

The Maritime Support Regiment of the New DDS Army has been declared fully operational. Although part of the Central Battlegroup it's role will be in coastal and river areas at strategic points across the UNP. Its first patrols will be near to the Hexian nuclear power station just along the coast near DDS GHQ and a river delta near DDS Engineering's HQ on Solaris.

A Prowler unit specialising in naval operations is still some way away a DDS spokesman said but would be added in due course.
