TACTICAL BASE GAMBERI, Afghanistan - Senior Afghan National Army and Resolute Support leaders visited Train Advise Assist Command-East and 201 Corps at Tactical Base Gamberi July 30, 2015.

The distinguished visitors included Lt. Gen. Qadim Shah, the ANA Chief of General Staff; Command Sgt. Maj. Roshan Safi, the ANA Sergeant Major of the Army; and Maj. Gen. Jeffrey Buchanan, the Resolute Support Deputy Chief of Staff for Operations.

The goal is to clear the districts of Khogyani, Sherzad and Hisarak of armed insurgents in an effort to bring better security to the districts, paving the way for better governance.

During the operation, leaders and advisers from TAAC-E will continue the partnership and work closely with their Afghan counterparts in the 201st Corps to provide advice and assistance on a number of essential functions.
