Soldiers with 2nd "Dagger Armored Brigade Combat Team have known about their regional alignment with the continent of Africa for a while now, but that doesn't mean the excitement of the unique mission-set has worn off, especially with some Soldiers having gone and come back after successfully completing their mission. "All of it has been very positive so far," said Col. Jeffery Broadwater, commander of 2nd ABCT. "The countries that we've been in, the [host nation security force] Soldiers have been very positive and really appreciated the support and classes we were instructing--we've got great rapport-building and I think we've probably made some lifelong friendships along the way." One of the major components of preparing Dagger Soldiers for their various missions, which can range in scale from a handful of Soldiers instructing a specific skill--say, basic rifle marksmanship--to a company- or larger-size formation for a partnered training exercise, is a group of courses called "Dagger University." The brigade has run one full six-day course already, in early April, and is currently engaged in another iteration. It plans to offer the course on roughly a monthly basis, Broadwater said."
