Many possibilities here, but
Join[List /@ list1[[All, 3]], list2, 2]
will do the trick. /@ is shorthand infix notation for Map and list1
[[All, 3]] means the set of 3rd elements of all rows.
By the way. All of the Mathematica reserved words and symbols start
with an uppercase letter. In your example the C, D, E, and I are
reserved.
