U.S. Army Sgt. Maj. Gerald Cornell, the lead field exercise planner and facilitator for Exercise Shanti Prayas-2, stands outside a training area at Birendra Peace Operations Training Center in Panchkhal, Nepal. The exercise is part of the Global Peace Operations Initiative, a U.S. State Department program executed in the region by facilitators from U.S. Pacific Command. The training addresses major gaps in international peacekeeping operations. The program aims to build and maintain capability, capacity, and effectiveness of peacekeepers deploying to United Nations missions. The exercise brought together service members from 23 nations to plan, coordinate and execute peacekeeping training scenarios which peacekeepers can apply to real-world UN missions.
