Lt. Gen. Gary North, head of US Central Command Air Forces, recently met with Kenya Air Force officials in Kenya to discuss current and future security cooperation efforts. During a visit to Laikipia Air Base, North praised the “tireless efforts” of KAF airmen in supporting the country’s national security interests and extolled continued professional exchanges. He plans to send a team of CENTAF airmen to Kenya next month to work side-by-side with Kenya’s airmen on integrated operations and maintenance issues.
