contract to support the U.S. Army Europe (USAREUR) Joint

“Cubic continues to play a key role in providing Live, Virtual,
Constructive and Game-based training and these contracts expand our
footprint in support of the Army’s JMTC in Europe,” said Bill Toti,
president of Cubic Global Defense. “We look forward to working with
JMSC in simulation and JMRC in maneuver to best optimize training
capabilities for mission readiness in support of the USAREUR and
partner nations.”
Under the Operations, Planning, Training and Resource Support
