Army & entertainment collaborate on VR

From: Jed Hartman (logos_at_kith.org)

Seems the army wants ultra-realistic simulations (presumably more so than the existing simulators). The interesting things to me here are (a) that they specifically mention storytelling as a skill they want to bring into the mix, and (b) they want to be able to provide guided tours of foreign places, complete with introductions to customs/etc -- not just combat simulation.
