CAMP ARIFJAN, Kuwait – In the current state of interconnectivity within the global community, few initiatives are as important as strengthening international relations for the United States military and cultivation of an atmosphere of cooperation.
The need to build partner capacity is a quintessential element of today’s modern military. In this spirit, the 1st Battalion, 62nd Air Defense Artillery Regiment, Top Notch 11th Air Defense Artillery Brigade, recently hosted a noncommissioned officer leadership immersion with the Royal Saudi Air Defense Force.
Senior enlisted noncommissioned officers from the RSADF participated Feb. 17 through March 16 visiting each unit within 1-62 ADA currently forward deployed to Kuwait in support of Operation Spartan Shield. Each unit began the immersion cycle with a brief overview and tactical site tour covering Patriot missile operations and overall roles and responsibilities of key individuals.
