Moroccan soldiers with the Royal Moroccan Armed Forces (FAR) Rescue and Salvage Unit clear their protective masks at the conclusion of a CBRN demonstration at the Port of Agadir, Morocco, Jun. 11, 2023, as part of African Lion.
The FAR joined the 773rd Civil Support Team, 7th Mission Support Command, completing academics and scenario-based training on CBRN and weapons of mass destruction incident response, building greater shared understanding of CBRN operations between partner nations and increasing interoperability. The 773rd is a technical HAZMAT reaction team, the only one of its kind in the U.S. Army Europe - Africa area of operations. Exercises such as African Lion provide opportunities for this specialized Army Reserve asset to assess, develop and train alongside allies and partners, getting the repetitions needed to fight and win together on the modern-day battlefield, and illustrate the vital role America’s Army Reserve fills in unilateral military operations around the globe. 18 nations and approximately 8,000 personnel will participate in African Lion 2023, U.S. Africa Command's largest annual combined, joint exercise that will take place in multiple countries to include Morocco from May 13 - June 18, 2023 (U.S. Army photo by Staff Sgt.
