Mission: S03 Ep 03 Trouble in the Sticks UXSys 659842 (Incidentals) Phase 2
Location: Security Office
Timeline: Current

[ON]

Leland finished up his HCO shift as the Tomcat Bridge and was now on his way to the Security Office to meet up with Lieutenant JG Winchester. Arriving at the Department, Leland had chimed the door and then allowed himself to enter. Ensign Sh'shraaqir was also present. "Chief." Hawksley had entered his office. "Look. I know I've been bothering you on this, but I need to update my paltry shots. Just be thankful that I didn't have to fire off a few rounds on that last mission." Leland chuckled, shaking his head. "What a mess that was." He states.

"Hello Lieutenant, Please come in," as Paul offered his friend a drink, "So, you're still interested in getting your scores up," looking back at him continuing speaking as he finished "that's good to hear, He looked at Thyra, "Thyra, any slots free on the range for Lieutenant Hawksley to be tested?" as he asked his assistant.

Hawksley was grateful for the training provided and he nodded to come in. "Thank you, Sir." Leland entered. Leland turning to Thyra, having had many sessions of training in the past, but he needed a refresher "Some pointers perhaps."

Coming from out of the side room and hearing what was said, Thyra with a cheerful smile enters the main area and catching what Leland said to her "I think that can be arranged sir" she cheerfully said taking a seat "now what is it you exactly need?" she ended with a question. Then looked at her Padd "we have tomorrow 3 pm opening on the range Sir, I can book him in for that" she said looking up at Winchester while waiting for Hawksley to respond.

"I need to learn the finer settings for narrow beamwidth and wide-field beams. I haven't been able to execute a clean shot on some of my previous missions in situations that warranted. On the Harrington, I was planetary side during settlement negotiations of Nian IV. The boys could have used the SFMC 95th there." Hawksley stated. "As well, I need to know what you know about the weaponry this vessel uses. Its faults."

Looking at Hawksley "I am still getting used to that myself Sir, Lieutenant Winchester may be able to help better with that, but for the hand phasers and phaser rifles, we use the standard weapon compliment. The Rifles I think use TR116 more than standard weapons thought, but I could be wrong, Lieutenant?" Thyra asked looking at Winchester.

"you are Correct Lieutenant" replied Paul as he leaned back into his chair "However; Get him trained up on both types of weapons and book him in on that time slot," he stated as the quicker Leland had his evaluation done the quicker he could relax and enjoy shore leave.

Leland was a bit perplexed. The Chief of Security looked to be concerned with other things at the moment, like shore leave perhaps. The man was a beast, after learning about him and his history.

Thyra looked a bit confused. o0Did he just says I have to train him?o0 She was afraid to ask and just look on her padd again. "Alright noted you down for the time slot, sir." She smiled at Leland. Is there anything else you require from us, sir?" She asked with a friendly smile."

Leland had smiled at Thyra, and nodded his respect to the Chief. "Ensign, Chief, Sir. I think that should work well. 3 PM. Range and we are working with the TR 116's." Leland made a note to himself.

"If that is all Lieutenant Hawksley, Ensign Thyra you are both dismissed," replied Paul as he knew that he had to finish off this paperwork before he could start his Shore-leave; as he knew that seeing Paula and Davina again would make him smile after what he had been through.

Thyra nodded and said, "I have nothing else." She then left the room. She was so ready to end this day.
