    Brig. Gen. James M. Lariviere, commander of 4th Marine Division, receives a briefing about an innovative, cost-cutting solution to a communications issue. The solution was dreamed up by two junior enlisted Marines, one active duty and one reserve, who are part of a team responsible for establishing and maintaining communications capabilities for the joint task force conducting AFRICAN LION 2010. AFRICAN LION 2010 is an annually scheduled, joint, combined U.S.-Moroccan exercise. It brings together nearly 1,000 U.S. service members from 16 locations throughout Europe and North America with more than 1,000 members of the Moroccan military. It is designed to promote interoperability and mutual understanding of each nation's military tactics, techniques and procedures. The exercise is scheduled to end on or around June 9. All U.S. forces will return to their home bases in the United States and Europe at the conclusion of the exercise.
