23rd of June, 2015:
Ahead of the arrival of our new recruits, it was suggested that we schedule some additional training for our officers on how to properly lead and manage fresh recruits. A reasonable suggestion I felt, and so with a little inventory juggling and pulling in a few favours, I cleared the funds necessary. It seemed to pay off, with our newly trained officers picking out the best recruits for different combat roles.

Along with the excitement of new recruits, we also managed to finish implementing my plan for the launch of our remaining satellites. However, the fact that two countries remained uncovered drew some confused and downright disapproving glances from among the staff of mission control.

But as Kambei Shimada points out in the classic film, Seven Samurai, "A good fort needs a gap. The enemy must be lured in. So we can attack them. If we only defend, we lose the war." I don't expect anyone to approve of this unfortunate necessity, in fact it's probably best that they don't. I'll bear the burden of this choice so their hands (and hearts) can remain clean.

However the aliens weren't entirely silent this whole time, and neither were their stooges, EXALT. I've sent out Leilith this time, to infiltrate a cell that was uncovered in the United States. But while she's away it seems the Aliens, as if they knew she would not be available, decided to launch an attack on a civilian population in Delhi.

Now all that remains is to launch BigSky, and pray that I'm not sending some of our best troops to an early, and particularly gruesome grave!
