The 197th Special Troops Company (A) hosted U.S. Army personnel along with counterparts from the Uganda People's Defence Force (UPDF) Feb. 7-15 for aerial delivery system familiarization and operations in support of Atlas Drop 2011 exercise objectives.
Atlas Drop is an annual joint aerial-delivery exercise that brings together U.S. Army personnel with counterparts from the UPDF. It was initiated in 1996 as a U.S.
European Command-sponsored exercise, designed to further cross-training and interoperability between the two militaries in company-level, bilateral airborne
operations, as well as platoon-level, live-fire exercises.
Responsibility for the exercise transitioned to U.S. Africa Command in 2009.
