U.S. and Saudi officers meet. Retired Maj. Gen. Mohammed Qubaiban (right) traveled with officers attending the Saudi Arabia War Course to meet with AFRICOM’s director of plans and strategy, U.S. Navy Rear Adm. Kevin Kovacich, seen here with Maj. Gen Mohammed, and others from U.S. Africa Command. Twenty-five officers are participants in the year-long Saudi Arabia War Course, a professional development program designed for those with potential for high level leadership opportunities within the Saudi Arabia military. The course was developed some years ago using the U.S. Army War College as a model to help the Saudis develop their own program. Past classes have heard from EUCOM, but this was the first year that AFRICOM was added to the agenda, based on a desire by the Saudi Arabia War Course leaders for their officers to learn more about the command’s mission and programs in Africa, U.S. Army Garrison Stuttgart, April 16, 2015.
