Local Mozambicans, U.S. service members and members of the media gathered around the sacred tree of Moamba to witness tribal elders prepare to ritualistically sacrifice two chickens and a goat to bless both the exercise and the sacred tree of Moamba here, Aug. 3. The event was a part of the military ceremony that marked the start of Exercise SHARED ACCORD, 2010. As a part of Exercise SHARED ACCORD, the service members will be working alongside FADM soldiers during the 10-day event scheduled to begin Aug. 3. SHARED ACCORD is an annual, scheduled, bi-lateral field training exercise aimed at conducting small unit infantry and staff training with partner nations for the purpose of peace and stability operations. This year’s SA is being held in Mozambique. The exercise is scheduled to conclude on Aug. 13. All U.S. forces will return to their home bases in Europe and the U.S. at the end of the exercise.
