Editing PDF Decatur (section)

== History ==

The ''PDF Decatur'' was originally the ''IAV Intrepid'' based in the Georgia System. It was commanded by Captain S. Hakuro. The ''Intrepid'' was sent to Blue Sun to assist with clean up and pursuit following the Reaver Skirmish of 2518. It did admirably and was moved to Blue Sun patrols following the conflict as other ships were sent back to the Ares/Boros for repairs. An outbreak on board of TSE34B caused them to seek assistance. Resistance operatives acting undercover as Mechanical and Medical technicians quarantined the ship and claimed damages on the vessel rendered it a total loss. When the last Alliance Naval personnel were removed from the vessel, a new crew of Resistance fighters boarded the vessel. <br>

This constituted the single greatest act of space piracy and least violent as well, with zero injuries. The Alliance Crew were sent to the hospitals of Hera on transport vehicles. It is not known whether the Alliance is aware of the ''Decatur'' at this time.<br>

The ''Decatur'' was commanded by Commander Val Senna until command of the ship was given to Shyla Kramer.<br>

The ''Decatur'' is the flag ship of the PDF Planetary Defense Force.<br>
