To Whom It May Concern:

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

All documents related to Larry Toenjes’ trip to the site of the June 8, 1967 Israeli attack on the USS Liberty to hold a memorial service honoring 34 Americans who were killed during that attack.

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,

Joe Meadors

Dear Mr. Meadors,

This is in response to your Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request, as stated below. Your request was received in this office and assigned FOIA case number 12-F-1040.

Please note that this office only processes FOIA requests for records related to the Office of Secretary of Defense and the Joint Staff (OSD/JS). There is no central FOIA processing point for the entire Department of Defense. Each component/service is responsible for processing FOIA requests that relate to their organization. You have not provided enough information to determine a connection between the records you seek and the OSD/JS. Thus, your request is not reasonably described to support processing.

This action closes your request in this office.

Respectfully,
