The Center of the Universe

From the desk of Rachael Martel, head of NERV RnD, Seattle-2 branch.

It's been just about 70 hours since Nerv Japan went dark, with there Magi Computer's going silent, and now we know why,  I'm told UN satellite and Aerial Recon confirmed what we all feared.

Japan is just gone. Except for the a couple smaller islands, it seems that  our last best hope to stop the Angels, has failed.

The Evangelions, have failed.

Okay so that was a little dramatic, we now know, that the head of Nerv Japan, sent out the only fully functional Evangelion into battle, quite literally  after throwing an untrained pilot into the cockpit, and sending him up.  Oh I don't mean a trainee, that would of been giving the child to much credit, I mean a literal child off the street, in lieu of a "real" pilot, into our greatest weapon...

The kid couldn't even keep the Evangelion upright, he went into a panic when the Angel grabbed him, cried out as the Angel pierced the Cranial Plate of the Evangelion, and was silent, as the Angel tore the Eva apart,

Lets be clear here, this is not because the Evangelion was not enough for the job, but because the pilot had no idea what he was doing. A weapon, and yes these are weapons, are only as usefull as the person wielding it. and this civilian was not a warrior by an means.

We all need to understand this, as why we have the Ned-Spartian Program, while we have the projects for clone pilots from "Red star international" and "Bain Bioengineering" to build us the pilots we needed.  Japan proved that an Eva can be destroyed, we allready knew this, what it failed to prove, is that victory is imposible.

This Notice is being sent out to all of Seattle-2 RnD for one reason, and one reason alone, WE are the Angels new target, The Marduk council predicts that the Angel was not destroyed with Japan, and that it will come here next, it's likely that all further Angel attacks will focus on us, so we *must* bring this base up to speed, we are working closely with the UN, and the North American government to deploy standard military vehicles, the northern commercial airport is already going to be re-purposed for NERV purposes for delivering much needed supplies.

More importantly, Nerv is pushing completion through on 4 Evangelions units, numbered  03 through 07 for deployment here, I want everyone in this department to know these Units better than the pliots, as we are going to be in charge of arming and refitting.

As soon as our Operations director returns from his mission in what used to be Japan, will we get a more in depth briefing. Untill then, stay busy, and perform your duties to the best of your abilities.
