SUBJ  STADIR 54-06 AUG 16 DINNER WITH MARS SERVICE CHIEFS

1.  YESTERDAY I WAS CONTACTED BY THE CHIEF AF MARS WHO IS TRYING TO ARRANGE
TO BE HERE ON AUG 16TH FOR THE MEETINGS AT USNORTHCOM.  IF SUCCESSFUL WE
WILL HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO MEET ALL OF THE MARS SERVICE CHIEFS AT THE
DINNER THAT EVENING.  I HAVE MADE RESERVATIONS AT SOLO'S 1664 N. NEWPORT RD.
(ONE BLOCK EAST OF POWERS ON FOUNTAIN BLVD.) IN COLORADO SPRINGS FOR THE
DINNER ON AUG 16TH. SOLO'S CENTERPIECE IS A FULLY INTACT BOEING KC-97 TANKER
(AIRPLANE FOR OUR NAVY MEMBERS). PLEASE VISIT
http://www.coloradoeats.com/Solos/ FOR MORE INFORMATION.
 
2. THE RESERVATION IS FOR THE "MARS MEETING" AT 7:00 PM. ATTENDEES CAN ORDER
FROM THE MENU AND INDIVIDUAL CHECKS WILL BE PROVIDED. PLEASE SEND ME A NOTE
(RSVP) IF YOU PLAN ON ATTENDING THE DINNER AND INDICATE HOW MANY WILL BE IN
YOUR PARTY. I HAVE ALREADY RECEIVED NOTES FROM SEVERAL PEOPLE INCLUDING  AF,
ARMY AND NAVY MARS MEMBERS.  THIS IS AN UNPRECEDENTED OPPORTUNITY TO FIND
OUT MORE ABOUT THE RECENT CHANGES TO THE MARS PROGRAM INCLUDING THE
FORMATION OF DEPLOYABLE EMERGENCY COMMUNICATIONS TEAMS TO SUPPORT THE
TRANSPORTATION SECURITY ADMINISTRATION. COLORADO WILL BE ESTABLISHING A TEAM
TO INITIALLY PROVIDE SUPPORT FOR OPERATIONS AT DENVER INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT
AND THERE WILL BE REQUIREMENTS FOR THIS TEAM TO SUPPORT EMERGENCY OPERATIONS
AT OTHER LOCATIONS IN COLORADO. A SIMILAR TEAM WILL BE NEEDED FOR WYOMING
AND OTHER REGION EIGHT LOCATIONS. THE TEAM CAN INCLUDE MEMBERS FROM ALL
SERVICE MARS ORGANIZATIONS.
