[MilCom] [MilRadioComms] New Launch T-0 time is 9:44am EDT (1344z)

The slow container ship entered the "box" and forced  a delay.
   By the time the ship cleared the box and the range was green,  clouds 
had moved in and we no longer had the "hole" for launch.
   Now they estimate it could be 50 minutes for the wx to  clear.
