U.S. Soldiers assigned to 1st Battalion, 503rd Infantry Regiment, 173rd Mobile Brigade Combat Team (Airborne), maneuver through an African Lion 26 (AL26) combined arms live-fire exercise at Cap Draa Training Area in Morocco.
The unit supported the combined arms live-fire exercise by delivering synchronized, high-volume indirect fires that enabled maneuver forces to advance, breach obstacles and destroy enemy positions, validating the unit's ability to mass fires in close coordination with friendly forces and process targets into accurate, rapid fire missions in real time.
AL26 is U.S. Africa Command's largest annual joint exercise, designed to strengthen collective security capabilities of the U.S., African nations and global allies. Led by U.S. Army Southern European Task Force, Africa (SETAF-AF) and hosted in Ghana, Morocco, Senegal, and Tunisia, AL26 involves over 5,600 civilian and military personnel from more than 40 nations, using innovation to drive partner-led regional security.
