Past Tactical Officers

The position of Tactical Officer was established in NL 2 (December 1994), with the position being filled in that same NL (the text establishing the role names Cli4ord as TAC but later in the NL it erroneously has TBD for the Tactical Officer which has lead to past confusion on when the role was first filled).
