YUKON WILL RETURN TO NEW YORK: BATTLESHIP YUKON -- The Battleship Yukon is in need of repairs and maintenance. The ship will soon be on its way to the Norfolk Shipyards for refitting and rearming. The LPI states that this maintenance will not leave the system vulnerable to attack from outlaws because the security contingent in California will be tripled during the estimated six-month hiatus. "It's time the old girl had a paint job," quipped Yukon's chief engineer, George Stuart. Although the Yukon will need quite a bit more than a new coat of paint, military officials say that this is no more than routine maintenance.
