Subject: Air War College cancellation
 
All,
   Approximately 20 minutes ago, our Air War College Commandant just cancelled all international travel for our entire class. Therefore, we will not be coming to Israel from 7-12 March.

   My apologies for this. All of you have worked very hard to make our trip memorable and educational.

   If there are expenses that you have incurred on our behalf, please let me know. We will certainly pay what we owe.

   Again, the cancellation of the trip was disappointing for us, but with the dynamic global medical concerns, our leadership felt like this was in the best interest for everyone involved.

Thank you very much for your hard work and for your assistance with the planning of the trip.

Respectfully,
Lt Col Derek Rachel
