USJFCOM members are heading to lovely Fort Campbell, Ky., to conduct UE-MRX 10-1. The exercise will prepare the 101st Airborne Division for challenges they will face during their year-long Afghanistan tour.
James Derdall, who works for USJFCOM as U.S. Central Command deputy desk officer – Afghanistan. He told me about why these exercises are important for Afghanistan’s future.
“It’s important to prevent dips in performance and losing ground on progress that’s been made as one unit moves out and is replaced by another. We work to help ensure that there is continuity between rotations and that there is continued progress made in the goals and objectives of the campaign.”
