A final personnel count will be provided by the Government upon award. Contractor provided meals will be served from the beginning of this phase to the beginning of the next phase between 28 May 2024 and 06 June 2024.

A scaled movement of approximately 2,800 to 3,150 main body personnel from the LSA to multiple TA locations will take place over the course of 2 days beginning 04 June 2024 and ending 06 June 2024.
