Gentlemen,

Capt Frank, one of the witnesses in the Wuterich case is set to deploy with
1/5 as a company commander.  Now that the case has been delayed, he will be
gone during the trial.  The Unit is requesting that we either:  1.  Agree to
take his testimony by VTC in April when we go to trail, or 2.  Conduct a
videotaped evidence deposition prior to his departure.  

The Government has no objection to either COA.  

Please advise as to whether you will accede to either COA, and if so, which
is preferable.

I have cc'd the 1/5 XO (Major Nelson) to this request for his situational
awareness.    

Very respectfully,
Maj Gannon
