A soldier of the Royal Netherlands Army, assigned to the 42nd Brigade Reconnaissance Squadron, stands atop a vehicle while changing the barrel on an M2A1 heavy machine gun during crew-served weapons training at Range 3 in Dodji, Senegal, May 2, 2025. The training is part of African Lion 2025 (AL25) and supports weapon system familiarity, readiness, and multinational interoperability. AL25, the largest annual military exercise in Africa, brings together over 50 nations, including seven NATO allies and 10,000 troops to conduct realistic, dynamic and collaborative training in an austere environment that intersects multiple geographic and functional combatant commands. Led by U.S. Army Southern European Task Force, Africa (SETAF-AF) on behalf of the U.S. Africa Command, AL25 takes place from April 14 to May 23, 2025, across Ghana, Morocco, Senegal, and Tunisia. This large-scale exercise will enhance our ability to work together in complex, multi-domain operations—preparing forces to deploy, fight and win. (U.S. Army photo by Sgt. CJay Spence)
