    Botswana Defense Force service members use riot shields to protect themselves against a simulated mob of angry citizens during a training exercise at Thebephatshwa Air Base in Botswana on July 16, 2019. The exercise was part of a two day culminating event after more than 170 Army and Air Guardsmen from North Carolina, Alabama, and New Jersey trained in partnership with their Botswana Defense Force counterparts during Upward Minuteman 2019, a U.S. Africa Command exercise promoting the U.S. National Guard’s State Partnership Programs on the African Continent.
