    US Soldiers establish a theater operations center during African Lion 26

    U.S. Army Master Sgt. Chris Seifert, a maintenance noncommissioned officer assigned to the 79th Theater Sustainment Command, U.S. Army Reserve, assists with setting up a military tent to be used for a tactical operations center during African Lion 26 at Tifnit, Morocco, April 16, 2026. The 79th TSC established a TOC to provide centralized mission command, synchronization, and situational awareness for logistics, personnel, and medical support across the operational environment. By maintaining a TOC, the command ensures that sustainment capabilities are integrated with maneuver forces, enabling freedom of action, operational reach, and endurance during large-scale combat operations.

    AL26 is U.S. Africa Command’s largest annual joint exercise, designed to strengthen collective security capabilities of the U.S., African nations and global allies. Led by U.S. Army Southern European Task Force, Africa (SETAF-AF) from April 20 to May 8, 2026, and hosted in Morocco, Tunisia, Ghana and Senegal, AL26 involves over 5,600 civilian and military personnel from more than 40 nations, using innovation to drive partner-led regional security.
