“This is the first time the KSF hosted an exercise. Hooah to the KSF for continuing to build their readiness and interoperability alongside the U.S. and other military forces,” the US Embassy said.
“Today was the culmination of this engagement: A soggy Distinguished Visitor Day where Charge d’Affairs Nicholas Giacobbe and U.S. Army BG Schaertl reviewed the validation of 1A Infantry Company’s competencies. #StrongerTogether,” the US Embassy Tweeted. /GazetaExpress/
