Sir,
Thank you for the additional clarification. General Shanahan is not at NDU and unfortunately, arranging briefings and presentations outside of NDU is outside of the scope of what we are able to coordinate. We are working to provide briefings from
both CISA and CIC to support your objectives
We are also not able to incorporate PT in our program due to liability concerns. We can provide a briefing from Health and Fitness if there is interest, but no PT.
Also, could you specify for me who from the delegation you would like to have in the smaller office call with NDU President VADM Roegge?
Thank you!

Catherine good morning,
the purpose of the visit is to enhance the understanding of the US system and way of working. LTG Kochavi asked to also enhance the understanding and the impact of the technological transformation, the growing use and R&D AI and Machine Learning to
the Defense Sector, the Public services and industries.

Sir,
Thank you, I will get back to you shortly on this request. Could you provide additional information (full name/college or organization) for General Shanon, I am not familiar with this individual. Could you clarify the requested briefing topic
as well?
Thank you!

Catherine hi,
Regarding our visit request and the program we asked for , their have been a few request to adjust the time line and a little adjustment to the program,
We are asking to make it on the same date 11/01/19 but to start our program at 06:00 with a physical training program with one of your senior physical instructors,
The training will take about an hour, from 07:00 we would want to freshen up ( showers ) and at 07:30 have a light breakfast,
At 08:00 start the briefing's and at 12:00 finish,
there has been a request for a briefing from one of your commanders by the name of general shanon, hope it will be possible ?!
please contact me if there are any questions and just respond to this mail that ill know you got it,
thanks a lot ,

Hello sir,
I am confirming receipt here, and as I mentioned, I have no involvement with international visits to the Pentagon.
