Update on LA Symposium and Ball

The 2008 Global Warfare Symposium will be held in Los Angeles, CA, November 20-21, 2008, at the Beverly Hilton Hotel. This timely symposium will coincide with the conclusion of Los Angeles Air Force Week.

AFA has changed the emphasis of this annual symposium from Space to Global Warfare to include the important role the Air Force plays in the world today and has increased this annual single-day event into a two-day symposium. We have invited multiple speakers to inform our audience on a range of topics such as UAVs and cyberspace. As always, our national symposia attract the top echelon of USAF senior management and commanders, the aerospace community and academia. Please see the September issue of Newsline for the speakers or go to www.afa.org for the latest update.
