Windy put in charge of pirate response

Windy has been placed in sole charge of the NS response to the recent pirate outrages including the defection of Von Kane and the multi-billion zark robbery of the Bank of Mars. Acting Director of Operations Caratore said that new codes and protocols were now being rolled out (the change needed because of the defection of NS Politburo member Von Kane who is thought to have provided data to the pirates) and would be complete within hours.

The existing Klondike deployment to fight the pirates would be beefed up considerably. This is already under Windy's command but Caratore said that all forces in the central theatre (the old DDS Centre territory) would be placed at Windy's disposal.

The investigation into the suspended Torus and Stella would begin within a few days Caratore said. Former DDS Commander Witchdoctor would chair the investigation. An outsider being bought in was considered fairer.
