Hey Judy, following up on our phone call, im cc'ing Eric and Brian as well.

 

Some facts:

1.       We are coordinated with the German Government (via or DATT in Berlin) that all IDF members coming in will be exempt from quarantine upon arrival. Pending (1) COVID-TESTING (2) Invitation Letter from EUCOM (by name).

2.       As of yesterday people coming in from Germany to Israel are exempt from quarantine. 

 

We are looking forward to conducting an in-person (and virtual) MSEL for JF21 (14-16 September), in Germany.

We do understand there is a need for policy restriction removal to make this happen, but following up on the letters sent last week (attached here too), we hope we can make this happen. Or at least allow the COS/DCOM make the decision.

 

In preparation for the trip, we will be doing 2 COVID tests (2 weeks prior and 2-4 days prior), as requested by the Government of Germany. If required we can do tests in Germany as well, and obey any restriction on movement you may ask us (we have our own strict guidelines in place as well, and will like to sleep on base/panzer if possible).

 

As mentioned above, in order to get the approval from the Germans we need an invitation letter (very technical) from you.

 

The following folks will be traveling (FOR THE INVITATION LETTER):

 

	FULL NAME	PASSPOERT NUMBER
1	LTC Shahar SHOSHANA	22699406
2	MAJ Benzion ZIMMERMAN	32618809
