    Pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 52b, as amended, and 41 CFR 102-3.155, the 
Department of Defense has determined that a portion of this meeting 
shall be closed to the public. The Administrative Assistant to the 
Secretary of the Air Force, in consultation with the Office of the Air 
Force General Counsel, has determined in writing that one portion of 
this meeting will be closed to the public because it will involve 
matters covered by subsection (c) (6) of 5 U.S.C. 552b.
    Public attendance at the open portions of this USAFA BoV meeting 
shall be accommodated on a first-come, first-serve basis up to the
