AFRICOM Ebola Mission Malaria Prophylaxis Procedures

To Whom It May Concern:

This is a request under the Freedom of Information Act. I hereby request the following records:

All official U.S. Africa Command (AFRICOM) malaria prophylaxis instructions, procedures or guidance published since September 2011 through the effective date of processing of this request, to include the most current version of and any interim updates since September 2011 to, U.S. AFRICOM Command Manual (ACM) 4200.03 (Force Health Protection Procedures for Deployment and Travel), U.S. AFRICOM Command Note 4200.03, and any other U.S. AFRICOM issuance that updates or replaces these documents, to include any malaria prophylaxis instructions, procedures or guidance specifically issued for Operation United Assistance or other U.S. military missions in response to the 2014 west African Ebola outbreak.

I also request that, if appropriate, fees be waived as I believe this request is in the public interest. The requested documents will be made available to the general public free of charge as part of the public information service at MuckRock.com, processed by a representative of the news media/press and is made in the process of news gathering and not for commercial usage.

In the event that fees cannot be waived, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 20 business days, as the statute requires.

Sincerely,

Remington Nevin
