Kenya Defence Forces soldiers and infantrymen with 1st Battalion, 181st Infantry Regiment, Massachusetts Army National Guard, conduct a joint patrol during Justified Accord 2026 at the KDF School of Infantry, Isiolo, Kenya, March 2, 2026. Patrolling is a foundational infantry task, and the training focused on establishing shared standards and communication techniques between partner forces. The exercise strengthened small-unit coordination, improved tactical proficiency, and enhanced interoperability between U.S. and KDF in support of future combined operations.
JA26 increases multinational interoperability in support of humanitarian assistance and crisis response, prepares regional partners for United Nations and African Union missions, and builds readiness for the U.S. joint force. Led by U.S. Army Southern European Task Force, Africa (SETAF-AF), and hosted in Djibouti, Kenya, and Tanzania, this year's exercise incorporates personnel from approximately 15 nations. JA26 is U.S. Africa Command's largest exercise in East Africa. (U.S. Air Force photo by Airman 1st Class Elijah Harris)
