总统 Gibson Kincaid 被任命为Zaonce system 的联盟防卫军（Alliance Defence Force，ADF）舰队的总司令。
记者 Vanya Driscoll 为 The Alliance Tribune 报道了事态的发展:
“海军上将 Frederick Yamamoto 宣布，Zaonce 舰队现在直接接受总统的命令，这直接破坏了ADF现存的指挥体系。”
外界普遍认为，这一举动是总统 Kincaid 故意展示实力的表现。Kincaid 目前正因非法竞选资金接受调查。众所周知，Yamamoto 上将是 Kincaid 的私人朋友，Kincaid 担任 Zaonce 的管理者时就认识他。”
海军上将委员会要求 Yamamoto 撤销这项法令。海军上将 Rachel Ziegler 谴责这一决定是“近乎叛国的政治哗众取宠”。
虽然 Kincaid 总统已经接受了这项授权，但他还没有向驻扎在 Zaonce 内的 ADF 舰队下达任何命令。

Kincaid Granted Command of Zaonce Fleet
18 MAY 3305
President Gibson Kincaid has been named commander-in-chief of the Alliance Defence Force fleet in the Zaonce system.
Journalist Vanya Driscoll reported on the development for The Alliance Tribune:
“Admiral Frederick Yamamoto has announced that the Zaonce fleet now takes orders directly from the president, in direct breach of the existing ADF command structure.”
“The move is widely perceived to be a deliberate show of strength from President Kincaid, who is currently under investigation for illegal campaign funding. Admiral Yamamoto is known to be a personal friend to Kincaid, from the latter’s time as governor of Zaonce.”
“The Council of Admirals has demanded that Yamamoto rescinds this decree. Admiral Rachel Ziegler condemned the decision as ‘political grandstanding that borders on treason’.”
While President Kincaid has accepted the authority, he has yet to issue any orders to the ADF fleet stationed in Zaonce.
