U.S. Army Sergeant Major Shanett Robinson, U.S. Army Southern European Task Force, Africa, (SETAF-AF), chief medical noncommissioned officer and Ghana Armed Forces Warrant Officer, Class 2, Augustine Akagri discuss the Partnered Medical Training event held on Caserma Del Din, Vicenza, Italy, Jan. 10-16, 2025. SETAF-AF strengthens interoperability with African partners through focused security cooperation exchanges such as the Partnered Medical Training. The Partnered Medical Training enabled teams from SETAF-AF, the 173rd Airborne Brigade, the Dental Health Activity - Italy, and the Ghana Armed Forces to share medical best practices, as well as strengthen readiness and interoperability between partners. The event also challenged medics to conduct their duties while under the stress of simulated combat scenarios. SETAF-AF prepares Army forces, executes crisis response, enables strategic competition, and strengthens partners to achieve U.S. Army Europe and Africa and U.S. Africa Command campaign objectives.
