U.S. Africa Command’s Exercise African Lion 21 is a joint, multi-national exercise in Morocco, Tunisia, and Senegal linked to U.S. European Command’s Exercise Defender 21 to counter malign influence in North Africa and increase interoperability.
Arabic and French Language Enabled Airman Program scholars Lt. Col. Qais Rabadi, Maj. Bryan Davis, Maj. Stephen Graff, Maj. Zachary Zeigler, Capt. Jennie Seibert, 1st Lt. Morgan Geneste, and 2nd Lt. Matthew Manner are currently providing language support to U.S. Army units at African Lion through the Air Force Culture and Training Center’s Training Partnership Request Program. Additionally, LEAP scholar Maj. Jason Jarecke is supporting the exercise as a Medical Planner, using his language capabilities daily and providing interpretation assistance as needed.
