The U.S. military's new, expanded combat training of Ukrainian forces began in Germany on Sunday. Until now the Pentagon had declined to say exactly when the training would start.
FILE - Weapons lie on the ground as Ukrainian personnel train at a base in Southern England. The U.S. military's new, expanded combat training of Ukrainian forces began in Germany on Sunday, Jan. 15th.
The so-called combined arms training is aimed at honing the skills of the Ukrainian forces so they will be better prepared to launch an offensive or counter any surge in Russian attacks. They will learn how to better move and coordinate their company- and battalion-size units in battle, using combined artillery, armor and ground forces.
The goal, he said, is for all the incoming weapons and equipment to be delivered to Ukraine so that the newly trained forces will be able to use it"sometime before the spring rains show up. That would be ideal." The program will include classroom instruction and field work that will begin with small squads and gradually grow to involve larger units. It would culminate with a more complex combat exercise bringing an entire battalion and a headquarters unit together.
