Bush George Pres 7/29 J- return , names to 27 July 95 TO: Erskine/Harold FROM: Mrs. Lieberman Former President Bush would like to visit Norfolk on August 14 in commemoration of VJ Day. He would tour the USS George Washington, talk personally to a small group of sailors, and then make remarks and take Q and A from the crew. (This would be covered by the press.) He would then take a helicopter to the Oceana, again make brief remarks and take Q and A from personnel (possible press coverage here as well). Bush would like to be invited by Secretary Dalton and Dalton would like to extend the invitation to him. POTUS is expected to be on vacation at that time, although it is possible that the schedule may slip a day or SO if Congress does not finish its work. This request comes from Willie Blacklow, assistant secretary for public affairs at Defense. McCurry has no problem with this from the press perspective. Please advise. Thanks, cuties. OK to tell Datton to into Haved 7/28/95
