Members of U.S. Africa Command (AFRICOM) mark the 383rd birthday of the National Guard with a traditional cake-cutting ceremony at Kelley Barracks Dec. 13. Within AFRICOM, the National Guard plays several roles in promoting a stable security environment in Africa. One way this is accomplished is through the State Partnership Program, with 15 African nations partnered with 13 state National Guards. (U.S. Army photo by Staff Sgt. Flor Gonzalez/Released)
