DMEA is a weeklong training event which provides a platform for both countries to share their best practices in regards to disaster response. The Oregon National Guard and VINASARCOM are partners through the National Guard’s State Partnership Program (SPP). The SPP directly supports both U.S. national interests and security cooperation goals through engagement with partner nations. (National Guard Photo by Maj. Leslie Reed, Oregon Military Department).
