ALCON -

Upon your wheels down in USVI you will be issued rental cars and motorcade as a group to hotel.

Upon arrival at hotel you will be issued room keys - you will handle paperwork with hotel later.

Hotel will provide hot buffet breakfast Monday at 0600 Monday ($8.00) - there are no other breakfast options and they are coming in especially to handle the team. (Will work on dinner options for Sunday at hotel as well, but no guarantee on that yet).

Brief in main lobby of hotel at 0700.

Vehicles loaded and staged in large parking lot at hotel entrance / main road.

NLT than 0800 motorcade to Red Hook - 1.5 mile drive.

Launch in 2 waves of 25 PAX via CBP and USCG boats to target. (Team 1 + additional), will push out that info at brief. Wave 1 executes and takes main building.

Boats return to Red Hook to deliver wave 2. May be up to an hour before wave 2 steps foot on the target.

RDT has 2 gallons of water per person + gatorade for Monday and will handle lunch. Bring snacks and water bottles as the water is literally in gallon jugs.

Anticipate donning vest/FBI shirt while on boat. Please be as low viz as possible in public. Local media has already reported FBI/NYPD presence on island.

Hotel - Sugar Bay Resort. Be aware this hotel is closed to the public but there are utlility workers/contractors staying here who are helping with island recovery.

Left side driving here and phone service is terrible.

Site survey conducted today, observed 5ish landscaping workers and likely a security person staged at the dock - no weapons observed but anticipate staff may be armed.

Safe travels tomorrow. Any issues hit your TL or I up.
