U.S. Army Pfc. Parker Jungwirth, a paratrooper assigned to Destined Company, 2nd Battalion, 503 Infantry Regiment, 173rd Airborne Brigade, aims down the optic of his M4A1 assault rifle during an expert weapons qualification range at Cap Draa, Tan Tan, Morocco, May 16, 2025, 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 Reserve photo by Spc. Gavin Hardy)
