FORT MCCOY, Wis - The 3rd Medical Deployment Support Command has been working with host nations to build partner capacity and capabilities for more than 15 years.
The 3rd MDSC's international engagement office hosted eight medical professionals from Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan during the CPX phase of Global Medic 2012 at Fort McCoy, Wis., June 13-21. The purpose of the visit was to build upon existing partner relationships with the five former Soviet states: Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, and Kazakhstan.
During their visit the foreign international officers toured established medical units, observed medical training in a field environment and conducted informational sharing with the Medical Simulations Training Center staff. They also met with various military leaders while at Fort McCoy to include lunch with 3rd MDSC commanding general, Maj. Gen. Dean Seinko.

The U.S. policy toward the Central Asia states includes facilitating cooperation with U.S. and NATO stabilization efforts in Afghanistan and efforts to combat terrorism, proliferation, and trafficking in arms, drugs, and persons.
