The second offering of the Seminar on Logistics Cooperation for Stabilization and Reconstruction was a resounding success, stemming from the success of August's LCSR 01, LCSR 02 expanded its participation to include officials from our allies abroad.  New themes of "the role of the media" and "money and contracting" were highlighted at the end of the week while the breakout group exercise scenario from the inaugural seminar remained a valuable, relevant feature of the course with input modifications.
