Subject: Shifting Board Meeting slightly

Dear Pierre, Hunter, John, Sally, Stephen, Lukas, and Mike,

We just received some unexpected good news - Alex Cornell du Houx, one of our staff members and an enlisted Marine, will be getting commissioned as an officer.  We just learned this morning that a Four Star Admiral will be able to do the commissioning in the Truman offices on Wednesday the 7th - and we would like to move the Board meeting slightly so that you may be a part of this wonderful ceremony.

Brad will be calling all of you today to see if it is possible to move our board meeting to 3-5 - or if not, 2:30-4:30 - so that you can be a part of this event.  It's a special ceremony to be a part of, and a very special day at Truman!

I've placed the bio of Admiral Greg Johnson below.

Best
Rachel

Gregory G. Johnson, 64. Director of the CACI since 2006. As the former Commander, U.S. Naval Forces Europe and Africa, and Commander in Chief, Allied (NATO) Forces Southern Europe, Admiral Johnson (Retired) brings to the Board valuable insights into the Department of Defense, intelligence and international communities. Since retiring from the U.S. Navy in 2004, Admiral Johnson founded Snow Ridge Associates, a provider of strategic advice and counsel.

During his 36-year naval career, Admiral Johnson rose through the ranks to Four-Star Admiral. He commanded at every level. He was most recently responsible for naval operations throughout the 91 nations and adjacent seas of the European and African Areas of Responsibility. He developed substantive policy-level relationships with many of those 91 nations. Admiral Johnson's NATO duties included operational-level command of the peace support operations in Bosnia-Herzegovina and Kosovo, as well as NATO missions in Macedonia, Albania, and other Southeastern European nations. Admiral Johnson oversaw the successful implementation of NATO's Operation Active Endeavor (Mediterranean maritime intercept operations), assumed command of the NATO Response Force at the Istanbul Summit in June 2004, oversaw NATO?s contributions to the Hellenic Republic of Greece?s security efforts during the 2004 Olympics, and was responsible for the establishment of NATO's training support mission in Iraq.

During his naval career, Admiral Johnson was also assigned to several senior policy positions in Washington, most notably serving as the executive assistant to the Chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff (1992 to 1993) and military assistant, first to the Deputy Secretary of Defense and subsequently to the Secretary of Defense (1997 to 2000). Admiral Johnson is active on numerous non-profit boards and serves in several civic and community organizations and institutions. Admiral Johnson also serves as Chairman of the Board of Directors of Alenia North America, Inc. and on the Board of Directors of Delorme, Inc.
