EUCOM Commander visits Soldiers in Ukraine

Col. Nick Ducich, commander of the Joint Multinational Training Group-Ukraine points to Soldiers conducting training while speaking to Army Gen. Curtis Scaparrotti, U.S. European Command Commander and Lt. Gen. Pavlo Tkachuk, commander of the Land Forces Academy, Nov. 23, at the International Peacekeeping and Security Center. Scaparrotti was here to interact with Soldiers and observe Ukrainian Soldiers during their 55-day training rotation at the Joint Multinational Training Group-Ukraine. The U.S.-led JMTG-U is training Ukrainian land forces and building a team of Ukrainian cadre who will ultimately assume that responsibility. The training is designed to reinforce defensive skills of the Ukrainian Ground Forces in order to increase their capacity for self-defense. (Photo by Army Staff Sgt. Elizabeth Tarr)
