Hi Benzi,

 

Sorry for the delay.

 

I’m working on a 2 day visit programme.  Day 1 at MOD with Military Strategic Effects and PJHQ Joint Effects.  Then day 2 at 77X.  Does that sound about right?

Hey Gus, 

 

So we thought a 2. day visit, landing in the Uk on the 28th, some Strategic Level and PJHQ is sounds great. We would also want to meet the 77th division and anything you suggest will be beneficial. 

 

Thanks!

Morning Benzi,

 

I would suggest a couple of sessions with Military Strategic Effects to cover off against the Strategic level stuff and then with PJHQ Joint Effects (we’ll get them into the building to reduce travel time and admin issues) to look at the operational level.

 

What would your ideal timings look like?

Hey all, 

 

I spoke to Colonel Frankel, will the 28-30 of November work? We will be in Germany the first few days of the week and would love to combine both trips to a one week TDY. 

 

All the best, 

 

Benzi

Good Afternoon Benzi,

 

Good to e-meet you too!

 

I’m relatively flexible at that range, I know I am busy between 28 September – 5 October, and then the last week of October.  But other than that anything looks achievable.

 

How are you fixed over that period?

All,

 

We have a green light for a visit in to UK in Oct/Nov 18 for Col Frenkel’s team to meet with our strategic communications leads from the MOD and Permanent Joint Headquarters.  Major Adam (Guz) Kurzeja is the UK lead (cc’d) and he can be contacted direct to arrange a mutually convenient time and programme.  He is most interested in engaging and exchanging lessons.

 

I’m not sure how you want to coordinate from the IDF side but I hand it over to you!

 

Guz – addressee are Northern Europe Desk, IDF International Cooperation Unit; Maj Benzi Zimmerman IDF J3 International Relations;  Col Tedi Dar, DA in London.
