We plan to use the background papers and prototype hypertext computer program you developed to brief the Technology Tiger Team in our upcoming general officer summit. Your work and demonstrations will add credibility to our concepts and visions. Customers worldwide will be able to instantaneously access up-to-date information to understand how to integrate and use intelligence as an integral part of warfighting. We look forward to continuing our work with you. We found your input invaluable in our efforts to disseminate and communicate intelligence capabilities to our many customers throughout the world. Sincerely
