Mr. Lasch,

   Greetings. I'm the TRADOC Liaison Officer in Israel. The Israel Defense
Forces (IDF) will be hosting an "Operational Simulation" conference here 12-14
November. They are seeking international participants with deep experience in
the field. I understand from Mr. Mike McCarthy--who we've invited as
well--that you are such an expert.

   Info about the conference is available at https://www.idf.il/92003/. I've
attached some literature as well. Please let us know if you are
interested/available. MAJ Benzi Zimerman (cc'd) is the IDF POC.

Very Respectfully,

Recommend Tom Lasch at the JMTC.  Tom runs the Sim Center at Graf(Cp Aachen).
He has been in the business longer than I have.
