Panelists from U.S. Army War College to Address Residents Tuesday

Three panelists are set to speak at the Peters Township Public Library Tuesday at 7 p.m. Panelists from the Eisenhower Series College Program speaking are Capt. William G. Davis, Director of National Security Studies and the Eisenhower Program; Col. Eric Tilley, who will speak about the United States' role in NATO; and Lt. Col. Harrison B. Gilliam, who will discuss Afghanistan Policy.

The Eisenhower Series College Program was established in 1996 as a War College academic outreach program, according to a library press release. It encourages dialogue on national security and other public policy issues between students of the Army’s senior educational institution and the public.

President Obama announced the official end of the United States combat mission in Iraq this past August, yet national security is still of utmost concern to the current administration. 

The three visiting panelists will share their views based on their own experience, research and reflection.

The McMurray Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 764 is providing support for the World Affairs Council of Pittsburgh 2010-2011 program series.
