After the failure of Operation "Caesar" and his arrest for attempted treason, Admiral Vaughan Rittenhouses' personal correspondence, personal writings and all other files would be seized by Federation Special Services and Starfleet Security. The absolute treasure trove of information - everything from his diary and planner through to random notes on fiction and his stamp collection - has been a boon to historians ever since it was declassified in 2320.
Amongst the nearly 450 Terrabytes of information was a series of correspondence between Rittenhouse and Admiral Nogura. Nogura, despite vocally disliking Rittenhouse, would exchange letters with him regularly between 2250 and 2270; both to discuss policy and as a semi-private form of venting about events within Starfleet Command. These collated letters detail Rittenhouses's obsessive disapproval of Captain Christopher Pike during his time as C-in-C Klingon Border Operations (2259-2262).
