Dave you are on our radar, we will be glad to accommodate your request when you get here.
Talk to you then.
Mike, We talked about this before I left. You told me that you work with people in country and people YOU KNOW will be in country from experience. I have worked extensivly with you and will need to get out as soon as I get back. I do not have the time to wait a month while my name moves through the list. I know for fact you guys work with people before they get here (Geraldo, Laura Logan, etc..), so please, let's play this even. So I guess this is my question: How long will I be waiting once back in country? My goal is to hook up with 2/35 attached to the 25th ID somewhere in Zabol. Preferably with units working with the ANA. Since you know this in advance and you know when I'll be back, I shouldn't need to wait a month to move. I'm hopefully getting you enough information that some advance planning can be done. Finally, your records are correct. I went to Jalalabad for three days. However, I waited so long that all I could do was three days because I was out of time. Not only that, but Jalalabad was nowhere near any of the four different places I requested to go. I lost a full month of work because of the slow response from your office. In fact, I had to go through Camp Phoenix to get that trip. I truly hope this process is getting smoother.See you in two weeks.
