SWJ Proud to Co-Sponsor Latrun V

The Small Wars Foundation, and its online publication, Small Wars Journal, is pleased to continue its support of professional military education and information exchange amongst our community of interest and practice by co-hosting the fifth annual Zvi Meitar Institute for Land Warfare Studies (ILWS) conference at the Armor Corps Museum and Memorial site in Latrun, Israel from September 6-8, 2011.

The first day, co-sponsored with the Israeli Defense Forces Logistics Command, will focus on defense issues with days two and three respectively covering challenges regarding the soldier in modern war and technological developments in the surface-to-surface missile defense arena.

This year’s international speakers supporting the ILWS join an elite group of former presenters that includes General (British Army, ret) Rupert Smith, author Joseph Galloway, and Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak. The agenda for Latrun V can be found here. Those interested in attending will find more information and a program here.

As an end note – we are much “more than pleased” to support, in any way we can, this professional military exchange amongst the associated parties.
