Jordanian and U.S. forces announce the start of Eager Lion 2018
Jordan Armed Forces Sgt. Maj. Saleh Al-Othman speaks with U.S. Air Force Maj. Gen. Jon Mott, a co-director of Exercise Eager Lion 2018, during an April 15 reception following an international press conference announcing the exercise at the Jordan Special Operations Command near Amman, Jordan. Eager Lion 2018 is a major training event that provides U.S. forces and Jordan Armed Forces the opportunity to improve their collective ability to plan and operate in a coalition-type environment through scenarios that span from a long-range bomber mission to maritime security operations to a ground force attack of a fictitious adversary. It is scheduled to take place through April 26. (U.S. Army photo by Sgt. 1st Class Patrick J. DeGeorge, 139th Mobile Public Affairs Detachment)
