U.S. Army 1st Lt. Kaleb Fanning and Staff Sgt. Jon Thurman, both assigned to the 761st Ordnance Company (EOD), 79th EOD Battalion, 71st EOD Group, 20th Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, Explosives (CBRNE) Command, conduct outdoor instruction for Senegalese Armed Forces soldiers during counter-IED training at Range 4, Centre d’Entraînement Tactique 2 (CET2), Dodji, Senegal, May 4, 2025. The session focused on explosive hazard recognition and initiation systems as part of multinational engineer and EOD training during African Lion 2025 (AL25). 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)
