Commander’s meet to prepare for exercise in Morocco

New Orleans Feburary 06th,2010, - Representatives from 4th Marine Division, 4th Tank Battalion, Marine Forces Africa and the Moroccan military officials met at the 4th Marine Division headquarters Feb. 5-8, to begin preparations for African Lion 2010.

African Lion is a month long combined exercise with the Moroccan military. Marines from the major subordinate commands under Marine Forces Reserve participate in the exercise annually.

Since the first exercise in 2004, African Lion has progressively grown to become the largest combined exercise in Africa, according to Maj. Nebyou Yonas, operations officer, Marine Forces Africa.

This year’s exercise will be unique, because it is the first year that MFR and the Moroccan military held a Master Scenario Event List (MSEL) conference prior to the event. The MSEL conference sets the scenario that will be executed during the exercise.

Everything from the mission statement, to obstacles and challenges the Marines must overcome was planned during the conference.

African Lion 2010 will be conducted from May 10 until June 15, in the country of Morocco.
