General Kunz,
I'm very honored to receive this Award. It was a great experience to organize the 1st HACW and the good response of the members was also a reward to me. The enthusiasm, the fair play and the discipline of the 56 participants of the first edition was a important motivation to repeat the project and to launch the 2nd HACW.
