 At 0500 hours local time, Starfleet forces accepted the surrender of the commander of the armed forces of the Gorn Hegemony in orbit of Tau Lacertae Nine.  Supreme Commander Sslumayla surrendered himself and more than 160,000 Gorn troopers under his command to Commander George McBrown of the Starfleet Marine Corps.  "This is the only official surrender of Gorn armed forces to the Federation," McBrown said. "I presented our conditions and accepted the surrender from him.  I told him I appreciated what he was doing for his species and for the people of the former Gorn Hegemony.  This will limit any future bloodshed."  McBrown asked Sslumayla to stay in uniform for thirty days, take control of his troops and starships, and restore order in the Gorn capital city, Tau Lacertae star system, and other surrounding star systems.  "At the end, I saluted him," he said. "I gave him that respect because he is a fellow combat officer."  McBrown said he was "honored" to represent Federation forces in accepting the surrender.  "The best is yet to come," he remarked at the end of the surrender ceremony.** At 0500 hours local time, Starfleet forces accepted the surrender of the commander of the armed forces of the Gorn Hegemony in orbit of Tau Lacertae Nine.  Supreme Commander Sslumayla surrendered himself and more than 160,000 Gorn troopers under his command to Commander George McBrown of the Starfleet Marine Corps.  "This is the only official surrender of Gorn armed forces to the Federation," McBrown said.
