U.S. Air Force Master Sgt. Jerald Calip, superintendent of the Center for Sustainment of Trauma and Readiness Skills Omaha with the 711th Human Performance Wing, discusses mechanical ventilator management with Tanzania People's Defence Force medical personnel in the intensive care unit as part of a medical readiness exercise during Justified Accord 26 at the Lugalo General Military Hospital, Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania, March 04, 2026. This first-ever MEDREX in Tanzania prepared U.S. military health professionals for the challenges of providing care outside traditional clinical settings. Working alongside African partners, U.S. medical professionals refined 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.
