The specifics:

·         Israeli delegation (J3, J5 and accompanying officers) - Landing in Tampa.

·         DAAT and ADAAT joining in the evening from DC.

·          Suggestion -  Bilat dinner

·         Meetings with J5 and J3

·         Possible round table with 2/3/5 ?

·         2 important discussions on topics I will send on SEAGULL

·         Roundtable (JS and DOD) – topic will be sent of SEAGULL

·         J3 and J5 Meeting with (p)ASD Karlin

·         FYI: the delegation will fly out to Israel on this day in the afternoon, so we kindly ask to do the pentagon part at the morning window.

 

 

Requests for now :

·         Dinner on Sunday the 28th

·         Office calls with J3 and J5

·         Potential aforementioned roundtable

·         COVID-19 test (PCR) for the delegation – hopefully until the noon of the 29th (so they can receive the negative results before departure to Israel)

SOCOM

·         Office call for our J3 with SOCOM J3

·         FVR Approval (Who will be the POC?)

Joint staff

·         Office calls with J3 and J5 (separate)

·         Round table – topics will follow

·         Approval of FVR for the day at the pentagon and River Access

DOD

·         Office call with the (p) ASD

·         Joining the round table

·         Will we need to submit a separate FVR than the JS?

 

I'm sure there are more details that will come up as we move closer .

 

For now it is important for me to share everything that we have so we all be on the same page.

 

Please reach-out to my team (Shachar and Eden) if you have and questions !

 

Looking forward to make this visit happen with you guys! Thanks
