    Lt. Col. Kitoko Kadida, a battalion commander in the Rwandan army, is preparing for the United Nations Mission in South Sudan (UNMISS), but not before gaining a wider perspective in peacekeeping operations at Exercise Shanti Prayas-2 in Kathmandu, Nepal, from March 25-April 7. The two-week training exercise is part of the Global Peace Operations Initiative, a U.S. State Department program executed in the region by facilitators from U.S. Pacific Command. The training addresses major gaps in international peacekeeping operations. The program aims to build and maintain capability, capacity, and effectiveness of peacekeepers deploying to United Nations missions. (U.S. Army Photo by Capt.
