Here it is Fri. & the last day of Feb. The sun is finally shining & the snow is melting. Best of all we’ll finish the day at Camp David. This morning more word about the possibility of getting our hostages out of Lebanon. This has been a long tragic time for the families. We are supposed to know by next Thurs.
Then in the Cabinet room, Dave Packard & his commission presented their report on the Defense Dept. It’s a good one & recognizes all that Cap has accomplished & recommends further management improvements—many of which would require Congress lifting a host of picky regulations & restraints they have imposed.
A meeting with Geo. S.—we’ll have to work out a group to attend Pres. Aquinos formal inauguration and he expressed optimism about getting Cong. to O.K. our aid to the Nicaraguan freedom fighters. A photo with Susan & Bee Oglesby—he’s going to work for Stu Spencer. A taping session & away we go to Camp D.
