    A small team of French and Norwegian special operations forces participated in Exercise Flintlock 2014 by teaching small unit tactics and fostering cooperation with soldiers from Niger from Feb. 19 to March 9, 2014. The French team brought years of experience in training African military troops and said they enjoyed working in the multinational environment in Diffa, Niger. Flintlock exercises began in 2005 and have grown to become a global endeavor spanning multiple countries, languages and cultures. Flintlock is an African-planned, coordinated and executed multi-lateral exercise that seeks to further the training and counterterrorism capabilities and proficiencies of participating nations across the Trans-Sahara region, while fostering collaborative communication and coordination skills.
