The Air Force Security and Assistance Cooperation Directorate manages all foreign military sales for the Air Force. It uses Command Country Managers assigned to international partner nations to help them successfully interact with the US Government.
Three command country managers recently had a discussion of their experiences on AFLCMC’s Leadership Log podcast. They were:
- John Harrington supporting Indonesia, Malaysia, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Brunei, East Timor, Palau and Royal Marshall Islands;
- Mary Koogler supporting Argentina, Barbados, Bolivia, Brazil, Eastern Carribean, Ecuador, Nicaragua, Panama and Uruguay;
- 1st Lt Lucas Tung supporting Italy and Norway.
“In a nutshell, a command country manager is a person who manages all US Air Force foreign military sales for a particular partner nation,” Harrington said including the need to coordinate with the Defense Security Cooperation Agency, Air Force Office of International Affairs, various program offices and anyone else necessary to provide a requirement to the partner nation.
