U.S. Army to Sponsor CPL Summer Event

The U.S. Army announced today that it is a primary sponsor of the upcoming Summer 2007 CPL ® Championships which will feature an America's Army tournament. The America's Army "bring your own computer" competition features $10,000 in cash prizes for the winners.

In addition to participating in the America's Army $10,000 tournament, gamers can compete in other competitions on America's Army PC game stations and America's Army: Rise of a Soldier Xbox game stations during the four-day event. Players will also be able to get their hands on the America's Army Future Soldier Trainer. This leading-edge simulation technology allows users to feel the recoil as they use realistic weapons armed with lasers in scenarios that range from single player training experiences to multiplayer missions adapted from the America's Army PC game.
