We also got a verbal invite but pushing for something in writing given what happened a week ago.  We would appreciate a heads up if you guys see something in writing.  Likewise, we’ll let you know if we receive something.  Either way, we are planning on being in Cairo next week.  If it helps, it looks like we’ll be staying in the Ritz-Nile.

Brian, 
We got a verbal invite so we’re GTG. Still figuring out travel plans. 
The invite for B2 to come here in travel together with K2 stands- and that would be a great opportunity. 
Pending traveling and security restrictions I’m sure K2 would love to have dinner with B2 in Cairo. Will let you know ASAP.

We have not received a formal invite from MG Megawer, I was going to ask you the same thing!  Does that mean you guys did not yet receive an invite?

 

As far as travel to Israel goes, we won’t be able to hit Israel this trip.  B2 needs to be back in Tampa at the end of the week and he has another trip planned ahead of traveling to Egypt.  B2 did mention getting together for dinner while in Cairo, is that something K2 would be interested in? 

 

For your information, we will most likely arrive in Cairo on 19 Apr and depart 22 Apr.  Do you guys have travel plans for Egypt?

Well, we do owe him a drink. 

 

But also an opportunity to discuss ops and mil-to-mil cooperation.
