MEMORANDUM FOR: ### ARW/CC
                                        ATTENTION: COLONEL LAST

FROM:  ### CS/SS
              #### Wabash Ave Ste 206
              Eielson AFB AK 99702-2199

SUBJECT: Letter of Appreciation

1. Sir, my compliments to you for sending such a magnificent contingent of communications
professionals to Eilsen AFB AK! During the period of 18-29 Jun 01, several members of the ###th
Communications Flight
joined up with the Iceman Team and helped us tackle several tough jobs. They
assisted an undermanned Ground Radio shop, gave our Base Communications Center a shot in the arm as
we continue to struggle with implementation of the Defense Messaging System initiative, and perhaps
most noteworthy, helped us migrate nearly 1,000 desktops from Windows 95/98 to Windows NT/2000
in less than two weeks, which helped us alleviate a recurring domain controller problem that has plaqued
Eielson for months.

2. Eielson is a popular destination for Air Force Reserve and Air National Guard units to perform their
annual training and, frankly, it can be difficult to find a way to incorporate these organizations into our
operations for such a short time frame. Not the case with your people. I have never seen a group have
such a great impact in such a little time. Please pass on my sincere appreciation to team leader SMSgt
First Last
and the fine airman listed below and know that the ####th has a standing invitation to
Interior Alaska as honorary members of the Iceman Team!

                                                                                                  FIRST M. LAST, Capt, USAF
                                                                                                  Commander
