240229-N-TI567-1174 STENNIS SPACE CENTER, Miss. -- Assistant Secretary of Defense for Special Operations and Low Intensity Conflict Christopher Maier receives a brief from members of the Polish Formoza at Naval Small Craft Instruction and Technical Training School (NAVSCIATTS) headquarters located at the John C. Stennis Space Center in South Mississippi, Feb. 29, 2024.
During his recent tour of the international training command, Maier had the opportunity to interact with the Polish special forces unit, which is tasked with carrying out operations on the sea, under water and in on-shore facilities, as well as land special operations. The unit recently graduated from NAVSCIATTS' Patrol Craft Advanced Training-Riverine course.
Maier also toured Special Boat Team 22 (SBT) during his visit. SBT 22's mission is to organize, train, and equip Naval Special Warfare Maritime Troops and Special Operations Maritime Craft Detachments to conduct worldwide special operations in coastal and riverine environments in support of Theater Commanders. The unit is one of three operational boat teams within NSWG 4 and the only riverine asset within the command.
NAVSCIATTS operates in support of foreign security assistance and geographic combatant commanders’ theater security cooperation priorities. The command trains and educates international security force professionals across the tactical, operational, and strategic spectrums through in-residence and mobile training team courses of instruction. To date, almost 14,000 students from 125 partner nations have trained with the command. (U.S. Navy photo by Angela K. Fry)
