1 Dear Friends of U.S. Army South, As we approach the 241st birthday of our illustrious Army, it is important that we reflect on the historical accomplishments of those who have led the way in our operational area. We are humbled to walk in your footsteps and honored to continue to write history for our Army. The SOUTHCOM Commander, Adm. Tidd has asked us to stay focused on defending the southern approaches and strengthening regional stability by remaining our partner nations partner of choice. We also need to ensure rapid response to emerging threats and disrupt/defeat transregional threat networks. We are building strong partner nation and interagency communities of interest and networks in the theater. We are able to do this because of the great foundation the leaders and Soldiers who have gone before us have established. On our Army s 241st Birthday, we thank you for leading the way and setting us up for success. May 2-12, Peru hosted Fuerzas Comando T h i s U. S. S o u t h e r n C o m m a n d - sponsored exercise which takes place under the responsibility of Special Operations Command South consists of a skills competition between 20 military and police Special Operations teams. This is a unique opportunity for participating nations of the Americas to improve their special operations capabilities, increase training readiness and further interoperability between countries. During this 13th Fuerzas Comando exercise Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos takes hold of the 1st place cup after the Colombian military team took top honors in the Fuerzas Comando 2016 competition in Peru for the fourth year in a row. Navy Adm. Kurt W. Tidd, commander of U.S. Southern Command, presents the second place trophy to the Honduran team during the Fuerzas Comando 2016 closing ceremony in Peru. Command Sgt. Maj. Dennis E.

2 top honors were taken by our Colombian partners. The program also included a friendship jump and a countering Terrorism Fellowship Program which includes two senior representatives from each nation with a focus on improving political and military relations and multinational cooperation. May 2-6, members of the U.S. Army South Provost Marshal s Office and New Hampshire Army National Guard military police (State Partnership Program) traveled to El Salvador for a visit with our Salvadoran Army military police counterparts. Alongside our partners, they assessed capabilities and developed a 5 - year plan to work together in an effort to strengthen capabilities. We came away with a plan to develop military police certifications and courses and train together in areas including riot control, border control, police intelligence operations, and respect for human rights. El Salvador is a strong partner as was displayed after the 9/11 terrorist attacks when they stood by the U.S. to become a part of Coalition Forces in the Middle East. Their effort continues today as they prepare to deploy Soldiers and helicopters in support of the U.N. mission in Mali. We engaged our Salvadoran Army legal partners when members of the U.S. Army South legal team traveled to El Salvador May 4-5. We discussed the Salvadoran Army s current legal structure and potential for future engagements between our Armies. We met with Col. Jose Ulises Calderon, one of three Salvadoran Army military judges, and provided an update on the Army s structure and processes. Based on this visit, we will be With the Colombian team after they took first place in the Fuerzas Comando 2016 competition in Peru.
