    Interested in the AUSA/ARCIC writing contest?

    The Army Capabilities Integration Center (ARCIC) is seeking to identify, discuss and influence the outcome of significant defense issues that affect the U.S. Army. To allow for more direct participation in the public debate of defense-related issues, ARCIC and AUSA are once again co-sponsoring a writing contest.

A cash prize of $1,000 will be paid to the winner, and all papers will be submitted to AUSA’s Institute of Land Warfare for possible publication.

    The link, even when changed to ...mil/ARCIC/AUSA doesn't work. There is a pdf announcement at http://www.arcic.army.mil/ARCIC_Writ...ng_Contest.pdf but that's all I was able to find. Is there more?

    "Paper Submissions on disk only"?!?! How "quaint"! Do you seriously mean that you don't have an email account for submissions ? That is going to potentially cause you all sorts of timing problems. Hmmm, I'm sensing a possible topic "Email capabilities: 2025 and beyond"......

    Default Clarifications - AUSA/ARCIC Writing Contest

    We had some unclear wording; participants CAN submit submissions on disk by mail to the address referenced OR email submissions to robert.toguchi@us.army.mil.

    The correct URL for additional contest information on the ARCIC website is:

    http://www.arcic.army.mil/ARCIC_Writ...ng_Contest.pdf

    Apologies for any confusion, and thank you for your interest!
