PARATROOPERS FROM THE 173RD INFANTRY BRIGADE COMBAT TEAM CONCLUDED THEIR PARTICIPATION IN THE JOINT EXERCISE MANGUSTA 16 WITH A WING EXCHANGE CEREMONY IN ITALY. SPECIALIST PATRICK STEED SAYS THIS EXCHANGE HAD MORE OF A PERSONAL FEEL.
"I ENJOYED THE CEREMONY, I'M GLAD TO HAVE THE ORDERS IN HAND. THEY HAD EVERYBODY COME UP ONE BY ONE INSTEAD OF JUST A MASS EXCHANGE, SO I'M GLAD TO BE A PART OF IT."
COMMANDER RESOLUTE SUPPORT, GENERAL JOHN NICHOLSON, VISITED THE AFGHAN NATIONAL ARMY OFFICERS ACADEMY IN QARGHA AFGHANISTAN WHERE HE SPOKE WITH FUTURE A-N-A LEADERS ABOUT THE IMPACT THEY WILL HAVE ON THEIR COUNTRY.
"IT WARMS MY HEART TO SEE YOU TRAINING LIKE THIS TODAY, YOU'RE DOING AN EXCELLENT JOB AND YOU'RE READY TO GET INTO THE FIGHT. YOU REPRESENT A VERY SMALL PERCENTAGE OF YOUR COUNTRY'S POPULATION BUT IT IS YOU WHO ARE GOING TO TAKE THIS COUNTRY FORWARD. AND AS YOU DO THAT, WE IN THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY, WILL CONTINUE TO STAND BESIDE YOU."
