    Tech Sgt. James Gilchrest of the 168th Wing Communications Flight, develops a targeted training curriculum with Mongolian cyber security counterparts while visiting and meeting with them in Mongolia. The Alaska Air National Guard communications and cyber team members from the 168th and 176th Wings met with cyber defense counterparts in Mongolia to develop a targeted training curriculum for future Cybersecurity Exchanges and foster positive relations with Mongolian counterparts in the newly formed Mongolian Cybersecurity Command. Through collaborative discussions, both teams pinpointed specific cybersecurity training targets, considering shared knowledge topics and work roles. This collaboration resulted in creating a focused training plan for future exchanges. The partnership aims to enhance cybersecurity skills and strengthen ties between Alaska and Mongolia. The exchange has proven invaluable for both teams, and the mutual understanding of training needs and goals has set the stage for future cybersecurity collaborations. This exchange represents a significant step in supporting Mongolia's growing cybersecurity capabilities while reaffirming the importance of international collaboration in addressing cyber threats. The efforts of the Alaska Air National Guard and the Mongolian Cybersecurity Command have paved the way for continued engagement and mutual growth in cybersecurity and the State Partnership Program. The cultural exchange component of the trip was equally valuable. Both teams were able to immerse themselves in each other's cultures, fostering goodwill and reinforcing the spirit of collaboration. The State Partnership Program has successfully built relations for over 30 years and now includes 105 partnerships with 115 nations worldwide. (Courtesy Photo)
