4. Your brigade is training on a U.S. Army installation in Germany. Coincidentally, other foreign units are also training at this installation too. A battalion commander in your brigade plans to train a light infantry airborne unit from Ghana on the U.S. Army's airborne safety procedures. Which of the following is true with regard to the battalion commander's training plans?

U.S. law requires a specific authorization from Congress to train a foreign force in airborne safety procedures.

As long as the proposed training is short in duration (e.g., 3-6 hours), requiring only a few U.S. Army trainers, is minimal in cost, doesn't add a capability or skillset to the foreign force, and is in advance of an exercise, it is permissible to fund as Little "t" training.

U.S.C. §362 requires the brigade to ensure that Leahy Vetting is conducted by the country team (i.e., Department of State)prior to any Little "t" training.

Both B & C are true.

Under 10 U.S.C. §2561 Humanitarian Assistance, your unit may use the Overseas Humanitarian, Disaster, and Civic Assistance Appropriation to provide such relief as long as:

The missions are coordinated and approved by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID).
The relief missions will benefit Argentina's civilians.
The Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA) releases OHDACA funds for your unit's use.

7. The Combined Security Transition Command-Afghanistan (CSTC-A) has the mission to train and equip the Security Forces of Afghanistan. The CSTC-A Commander wants to train an Afghan battalion on pathfinder operations. The training will take three weeks and cover establishing and operating helicopter landing zones, MEDEVAC procedures, and sling load fundamentals. It will cost approximately $6 million to conduct the three-week training event. The Commander also wants to build the Afghan Army a pathfinder school house and training facilities for approximately $3 million. Which statement is the most accurate regarding the funding of the planned training and construction:

The command can fund the training but cannot build the school or training facilities because this cost exceeds the contingency construction authority.

The command can pursue the training and construction but only if it can get the DoS funds to pay for it, since this is clearly "Big T" Security Assistance Training.

The command can legally fund all the planned training and construction with OCO.

The command can legally fund all the planned training and construction with the ASFF appropriation.
