Guided by members of Togo’s National Civil Protection Agency, U.S. Air Force Brig. Gen. Mitchell Johnson, upper left, the adjutant general for the North Dakota National Guard and director of the North Dakota Department of Emergency Services, tours a local medical treatment facility during Operation Lignite Coast 2026 in Agome-Glozou, Togo, June 15, 2026.
Operation Lignite Coast 2026 was a training event conducted June 8-18, 2026, in various locations in Togo, focused on improving the Togolese government’s capacity to handle a variety of emergency scenarios. It culminated in a three-day field exercise that provided the NCPA’s civilian and military personnel with practical application of training concepts they previously learned in emergency response. Planning Lignite Coast began in December 2025 and involved significant collaboration with the North Dakota National Guard, Togo’s state partner through the National Guard’s State Partnership Program.
