A -- NOTICE: SOLDIER GROUND MOBILITY INDUSTRY DAY SOL W13G07-CBD6-0032 POC Alan Goldberg, (508) 233-4244 (Site Code DAAK60) The U.S. Army Soldier Systems Command, Natick Research Development and Engineering Center will be hosting a Soldier Ground Mobility Industry Day on 30 October 1996 at our Natick, Massachusetts facility. The purpose of the event is to provide our industry partners with an opportunity to meet face-to-face with our engineers and managers to hear our plans and share ideas. We are looking for new concepts and equipment improvements that will help the Soldier ''be all he can be.'' The Soldier Ground Mobility Program (SGMP) seeks to provide technical enhancements for improved speed and efficiency, increased load carriage capability, reduced injuries, improved reliability, and lower weight equipment and devices. Soldier Ground Mobility Industry Day will encompass a broad range of capabilities that provide the individual soldier with improved ground mobility; from snow and ice traversing and mountaineering equipment, and off-body load carriage equipment such as bikes and carts, to orthotic injury reduction devices and power-assisted exoskeletal strength and speed enhancers. Army managers will provide presentations and displays on current SGMP and related programs. Attendees are invited to give presentations, provided they are limited to 10 minutes. Breakout rooms will be available for one-on-one discussions with the Government. There is no registration fee. All attendees must preregister by 30 September 1996. Please let us know if you wish to make a presentation.
