Langley’s visit furthered the command’s desire to deepen its partnerships and defense relations by empowering today’s leaders. “I cannot emphasize enough the value that’s placed on the partnerships we maintain, nurture and cultivate across the continent,” said Langley. “Having our African partners at the center and forefront of what we do solidifies our partnership and efforts to promote regional security, stability, and prosperity in Africa.” (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Lance Cpl.
