           Additionally since your last brief, sir, one thing I
   neglected to mention, the ist Cav Division has been given a
   warning order to move from Corps Reserve down in the southernmost
   portion of the XVIII Airborne section to an assembly here, and
   movement commenced on the 22nd. They will chop from Corps
   Reserve to XVIII Airborne Corps, so that move is underway now.

   COL STEED: morning, sir. I have nothing this morning.

   GEN BOOKER: I put some notes on the plan for the movement of the
   CP, inside the plans.

   COL STEED: All right.

   COL LIST: Sir, I received information over the phone that, from
   the CINC staff, MODA has approved our construction project at
   Mishab airfield and the contract will be signed on the 26th, with
   occupancy by 15 January.

   CAPT JOHNSON: There's a site visit today.

   GEN BOOMER: Good.

   COL LIST: I have coordinated with Gen Brabham and the G-4 staff
   will brief and take Gen Winglass from tomorrow afternoon from 14
   to 1800, covering logistics topics as part of his itinerary.

           We met with the Royal Commission yesterday, sir, and
   requested they reconsider our use of the camp -- what I call Camp
   7. It's the improved area over here in the northwest corner, it
   has all the utilities already in place. We have specifically
   asked for 150,000 square meters for a installation of a fleet
   hospital, and they did not say no, they appear to be favorably
   inclined that way; and we are going to continue to pursue that.

           Finally, we have received our first shipment of 142,000
   pounds of rice, which equates to 15 days of supply for 40,000
   POWs. We expect a similar quantity of beans to be delivered.
                        6

   GEN BOOMER: I like rice and beans. Maybe we will eat it.

   2D DIV: We have some A-rats we will trade, too.

   COL LIST: That's all I have, sir.

   LTCOL BRUNN: Morning, sir. Just a reminder for everyone, with
   the Christmas holidays we are going to have a lot of people
   wandering through the area. Make sure your classified material
   and sit maps are appropriately marked and covered when you have
   personnel wandering through the area or you have to leave. Also
   during the Christmas season it is a vulnerable period, so keep an
   eye out for any suspicious activity; and if you see it, report it
   to security and the COC. That's all, sir.

   GEN BOOMER: Let me back up to the G-4. I mentioned this to Gen
