 Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus toured the Joint Sustainment Academy Southwest at Camp Leatherneck Tuesday. The academy is the primary site for advanced combat training for Afghan security forces in Helmand Province. During his visit, Secretary Mabus spoke with academy leaders and instructors and got a glimpse of the future of Afghan security. As we draw down our combat capabilities, they're going to be there in place with the skills, with the training, with ready to do what they need to do to keep a stable Afghanistan. During his visit of Helmand Province, the secretary also met with Marines and sailors at Camp Leatherneck and other bases. He said he's impressed by the efforts of the sea services in the fight in Helmand Province. The security situation is stabilized everywhere Marines are, everywhere that Marines and their Navy brothers and sisters are and the fact that we're able to do this, the fact that our Marines are able to have this sort of success just speaks volumes. More than 1,200 Afghan national security forces have been trained at Camp Leatherneck since February where they've learned everything from literacy to explosive device detection.
