U.S. Air Force Master Sgt. Jerald Calip, superintendent of Center for Sustainment of Trauma Readiness Skills Omaha and a respiratory care practitioner assigned to the 711th Human Performance Wing, shares knowledge with Tanzanian military medical personnel on how to use mechanical ventilators in the ICU at the Lugalo General Military Hospital during a medical readiness exercise as part of Justified Accord 26, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, March 4, 2026. By working alongside African partners, U.S. medical professionals refine their ability to deliver rapid, adaptable, and resource efficient medical care, directly increasing medical readiness for large scale combat 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, JA26 is U.S. Africa Command’s largest exercise in East Africa.
