Introduction
    
Hello guys and gals.
    
This week was another week full of work. I am making final preparations to the great event: release of Project
Shield and it's software. Soon, we will be able to make it fully official, and entire EH membership will find
out about most classified EH project. Great cooperation between SCO and TAC.
    
From other news. Well. I am cleaning up backlog. All HSs have been approved allready. Also, I am going
to mail Squadron Ready Room to XO each month.
Project Shield - final phase
    
It is possible we will release project Shield even tomorrow. We will soon. Also, a lot of new battles will be
released, so stay tuned for more info.
New Flight Officer
    
With resignation of HA Priyum Patel, his Command Attaché, Fleet Admiral Cyric has been appointed as Flight
Officer and Tie Corps Commander. I know FA Cyric for a very long time. He used to command ISD Grey Wolf, when
I was just a simple pilot, and I can tell he is very fine officer. Although we had our differences in the past
and we used to throw mud at eachother very often, I am sure, as Command Officer we will once again cooperate
and make EH better place to be.
    
Congrats man.

Tactical Office Person of the Week:
        
This week we has recommendation from TCC:XW
        
My nomination for Pilot of the Week is Zystem Fryar. ZF is probably the most thorough tester in
the TAC office, testing everything at least three times. Even the current, 9 mission battle he's
on where missions take at least 20 missions each *if* he's successful, he'll go through 5 times to
make sure he knows everything, even if he's having to also test out a somewhat buggy Transport patch
for X-Wing in the process. Truely an excellent tester in the TAC office.
        
Excellent work Fryar, keep it up.

Final word:
    
I have more time now, but still use mail. I am on IRC from time to time and I try to join EH/TC meetings, but
sometimes I am unable to do this. Mail me, or my Command Attaché with any questions or simply join #tac and
ask your question there. I am sure someone will be able to answer it.
