No problem at all. I am really grateful that you were able to help. Definitely will take what I can get. As far as government
goes...you guys have been amazing.

Hi Ben � my apologies. I needed to get one more approval before my folks could finalize the CD. That's done
now, and we'll get them out tomorrow. I'll email you with the tracking info as soon as I have it. Many thanks
for your patience with the bureaucracy of government.
Thank you,

I did not receive the photos yesterday. This is not to rush you, I just want to make sure I don't need to go track
them down in the mail. I am eager to get it all and very excited and very grateful.
� Thanks,
Ben

Thank you so much for the email. We very much enjoyed having you visit. The story you're telling in the movie
is one we're proud of (something that is probably clear since we feature the tale in the museum), andF7and (b)(3)

We finalized the photos -- and scanned in all of the historical ones -- a few days ago. I'd prefer to send them via
fedex on a disc, so do you have an address where you'd like me to send them? I can email them, but you'll
probably lose some resolution if I do that.
Once you get the photos, please let me know if you have any additional questions or requests. I'd be happy to
support another visit by you or others working with you on the film, and look forward to working with you in
the future. I love opportunities to show off our Langley home and, of course, the men and women of America's
premier intelligence service.
All the best,

This is Ben Affleck. I wanted to write to tell you again what a wonderful time I had touring headquarters with
you. I am extremely grateful and hope very much to tell a story that does Tony and the Agency justice.

I am wondering when the photos I requested will be available? I know its a a lot of work for you to get and clear
them but these historical images will be incredibly helpful in my effort to strive for absolute authenticity. Please
let me know if there is anything I can do.
I look forward to returning to headquarters again soon and I hope very much to see you then
Many thanks again,
Ben
