Hi Marty,

We got word from MABAL that AWC is canceling all international travel, including the trip to Israel.

Can you confirm?

Imri,

 

Greetings! I know both of us are busy with so many things but I would like to finalize a portion with the Air War College visit if I could—

 

On 8 Mar, Sun, in the morning AWC will visit Mabal and have lunch. After lunch, they will travel to Hatzor and visit Site 61 (EUCOM exercise participants to host). After that, could we develop a visit either with 66 Bn Headquarters Menatev or with 947 Bn Headquarters? I know AWC desires to “visit Iron Dome” but I wanted to direct it toward more of a Headquarters view vice only looking at a battery, although if they have something like it to look at that is always fine too.

 

This would be the only IAF touchpoint that I am aware of. We spoke with Major General Virob along with Matan about these items yesterday and so I just wanted to lock it away.

 

Thank in advance!

Marty
