Security Increased Ahead of Invictus Fleet Week

Organizers turn to professional mercenaries as traffic increases in preparation of the military event.

The recent terrorist attacks in the Stanton system have put security forces on high alert for this year's Invictus Launch Week celebration, and while it's certainly a good time to see amazing ships and shop for new gear, the current situation has presented an opportunity to take on extra work and make some serious credits.

From patrolling flight lanes to defending civilian vessels in distress, we encourage all guild members to plan on working extra hours this month to support the Navy's big day.

They also announced that Lucas Baramsco—a decorated Navy veteran who's expanded into teaching pilots in the private sector—is offering a free Navy Patrol Training course, which we would highly recommend taking advantage of.

Whether you're a rookie pilot or a combat vet, there's surely something to be learnt from this pro.
