I know that Sehlwana was present and Captain Erwee was there and Mr Coetsee was there.  You know when you're far way from a particular scene you can't do detailed planning, you can only lay down a very wide framework, so the idea is that we agreed on the possibility of executing the operation in this way and that the specifics would depend on the terrain there and that the people involved with the defence force would go there and do the final planning on the ground.
