Dear Barry:
It is my pleasure to invite you to participate in the CSIS
conference on Resources, Technology and Future Battlefields to be
held in Washington, October 27-29, 1987, in the Wadsworth Room of
the International Club, 1800 K Street, Northwest.
As you are aware, the conference will be the culmination of
an intensive year-long study of the evolution and likely nature
of future air, land, sea, unconventional and space warfare.
Participants in the conference will include senior officials
representing both government and the private sector. As you can
see from the enclosed tentative schedule, this promises to be an
exceptional forum for the refinement of concepts which have been
discussed over the course of our previous sessions.
We hope that you will attend as much of the proceedings as
possible. Please use the enclosed R.S.V.P. form to indicate
those sessions you wish to attend. The form should be returned
to Mary Park, Director of Conferences at CSIS. Any questions may
be addressed to the Political-Military Studies staff at (202)
775-3104.
Let me take this opportunity to thank you for your
involvement thus far. We look forward to your participation in
the final stages of this important CSIS effort.
Sincerely,
Harlan K. Ullman
Director
Political-Military and
Maritime Studies
