Using an order blank that came with <u>S&T</u> #<s>42</s>39, discovered
that I have all the Simulations games except the following:
<u>NATO</u>, <u>SNIPER!</u>, <u>SOLOMONS CAMPAIGN</u>, <u>BULL RUN</u>, and
<u>PHALANX</u> (I have this in a manila envelope, but not in the
boxed version). Also learned that <u>THE BATTLE OF STALINGRAD</u>
is now called <u>TURNING POINT</u> (is the game the same?).

distributed by the Michigan Heart Association called <u>RISKO</u>.
