00:00.567 --> 00:04.400
^(fast paced, energetic music)

00:08.260 --> 00:10.270
^- Welcome to U.S. Army Central Update.

00:10.270 --> 00:12.513
I'm Specialist Nicole Salvatera.

00:13.220 --> 00:15.490
Establishing friendships and familiarity

00:15.490 --> 00:18.003
are important when working in a joint environment.

00:18.640 --> 00:21.160
Let's go join U.S. and Jordanian officers

00:21.160 --> 00:23.453
as they conduct training in NATO planning.

00:24.440 --> 00:25.620
- [Reporter] The class is taught prior

00:25.620 --> 00:27.423
to exercise Eager Lion,

00:27.520 --> 00:29.420
where the officers may utilize the skills

00:29.420 --> 00:30.930
they have learned throughout the course.

00:30.930 --> 00:32.600
- For the staff and the commanders,

00:32.600 --> 00:34.723
^I'd like them to think clearly.

00:35.170 --> 00:38.273
^How is the process, appropriation, planning,

00:38.450 --> 00:43.450
and designing before starting the execution phase.

00:44.110 --> 00:46.428
This lesson, this main idea, in general,

00:46.428 --> 00:51.428
but this main idea was the end behind this class.

00:52.750 --> 00:54.390
- For some, the class is an introduction

00:54.390 --> 00:56.273
to working in a joint environment.

00:56.340 --> 00:58.240
^- Uh, actually, the course equipped me

00:58.240 --> 01:02.173
^with a lot of skills working with others.

01:02.404 --> 01:04.563
I mean, components.

01:04.770 --> 01:08.223
Also the concept of joint of operation environment.

01:08.340 --> 01:11.570
I have never been into such this courses.

01:11.570 --> 01:12.550
So it helped me a lot.

01:12.550 --> 01:16.693
Also, to be honest, the language is skill.

01:17.010 --> 01:20.620
Communicating and comprehensing the English language

01:20.620 --> 01:22.723
is a great deal of it.

01:23.200 --> 01:26.220
- Representatives from Great Britain, France,

01:26.220 --> 01:28.383
and New Zealand instructed the course.

01:28.860 --> 01:30.930
Students were provided headsets to listen

01:30.930 --> 01:33.163
to the lesson in their primary language.

01:33.380 --> 01:35.510
The course concluded with mock briefings

01:35.510 --> 01:37.543
and presentations of certificates.

01:38.050 --> 01:40.120
Eager Lion is an annual exercise

01:40.120 --> 01:43.400
with U.S. forces training with Jordanian armed forces

01:43.400 --> 01:45.403
to strengthen interoperability.

01:46.210 --> 01:48.323
That was your U.S. Army Central update.

01:48.330 --> 01:49.843
I'm specialist, Nichole Salvatera.

01:50.573 --> 01:53.156
