The Department of Defense and the Office of Military Commissions will allocate seats for news media aboard military chartered aircraft for travel from Andrews Air Force Base, Maryland to Naval Station Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, to cover military commission pre-trial proceedings scheduled for United States v. Khalid Shaikh Mohammad et. al., Jan. 25 - Feb. 3, 2017.
Travel originates at Andrews AFB, Maryland on Monday, Jan. 23, 2017; return flight from Guantanamo to Andrews AFB, Saturday, Feb. 4, 2017.
Due to a limited number of seats aboard the flight and limited accommodations at Guantanamo Bay, selection is not guaranteed. However, there is additional opportunity for media members to view the proceedings by closed circuit television (CCTV) from a media work center at Fort George G. Meade, Maryland, from Jan. 25 - Feb. 3, 2017.
Media desiring to view either or both of these hearings should send their requests via email to osd.pentagon.pa.mbx.gtmo-press@mail.mil. All requests must be received no later than 5 p.m. EST, Jan. 4, 2017. Media members should submit their names, positions, sponsoring organization, contact information, birthdate, and passport information to the above email address. Multiple names from the same organization may be listed. Requesters should indicate each individual's desire to be considered for travel to Guantanamo or attendance at Fort Meade.
NOTE 1: There are no tours of detention camps scheduled during military commissions. Requests for reporting on Guantanamo topics not related to the military commission (courtroom) must be coordinated through OSD Public Affairs and Joint Task Force-Guantanamo public affairs. The primary purpose of travel to Guantanamo is courtroom reporting.
NOTE 2: All media must ensure their passports and visas (foreign press) are up-to-date and eligible to enter and exit the United States.

He should have gotten two in the head and buried somewhere unknown. As quickly as possible after 9/11/2001.
FYI
It was also done to have them held at a prison in Illinois while being represented by Holders former firm. I forgot the connection to the prison. But the whole reason behind the push to allow these animals access to constitutional rights so holder et al could capitalize..
How would the US budget fare if US journalists were to pay their own expenses, travel to the nearest airport to GITMOand traveling overlandreporting on Cuba's 60 years of glorious accomplishments on the way?
That one made me laugh out loud.
Put a bullet in his head and save the money!!
