A group of Burmese army officers has arrived here for training with the Israeli forces, according to an announcement today by Premier Moshe Sharett.
Mr. Sharett implied that Burma’s sending of its officers for training here resulted from the visit of a sizable Burmese delegation which left for home last week after several months’ study of this country’s economic development and army organization. The visitors were “very impressed” with achievements here, the Prime Minister said.
