“Not a morning person I see. It’s Quentin Ramsey; I need to discuss the security protocols with Commander Goodwin.”

“Morning Ramsey; I’ll let you in. Once you board the ship report to the bridge. We’ll meet you there in thirty.” I closed the com. “S.H.E.A. grant hangar and ship access to Quentin Ramsey.”
“As you wish commander.”
