Hello Ronnie,

I've spoke to BG Finkel, he doesn't lead this area of research, but he is familiar with it and have the latest updates.

He will be happy to meet with Air Commodore Lester, but again it depends on the schedule of the HCSC. 

Best regards,

Hello Ronnie,

I will check if BG Finkel is the most relevant person for this request.

Anyway, his accommodation and flight to UK are already booked, so the possibility of this meeting depends on the schedule of the HCSC.

I think you can try to coordinate the possibility of the meeting with HCSC.

I'll check how can we accommodate.

Best regards,

Dear Elizabeth,

 

I have had a request from the UK’s Defence Concepts and Doctrine Centre to engage with the IDF’s lead on Multi Dimensional Operations concepts.  I understand that this is an area the BG Meir Finkel is leading on for the IDF.

 

I know that BG Finkel is due to travel to the UK on 20th February to speak at the UK’s Higher Command and Staff Course at the Defence Academy, as he did last year.  Would it be possible to investigate whether he could also meet with our lead on Multi Dimensional Operations, Air Commodore Phil Lester during the same visit?  Air Commodore Lester works at the Defence Concepts and Doctrine Centre which is in the same base as the Defence Academy.

 

I’d be happy to deal directly with the Dado Centre if you are content.

 

Ronnie
