The Joint War Games Agency (JWGA) conducted SIGMA II-65 as the first politico-military simulation of the FY 66 program. Unlike interagency senior or cabinet level exercises, usually conducted three or four times each year, SIGMA II was carried out with participants in the grades of Lt Colonel/Commander through Major General and their civilian counterparts. It consisted of three moves and lasted one week, from 26 to 3O July 1965. The final report includes a brief summary of the 1ame highlights and analysis, the somewhat longer script of a video-summary, a transcript of senior discussions following review of the video-summary and documentation of the actual game.
