Indiana National Guardsmen from the 438th Chemical Company train with fellow U.S., Slovak, Czechia and Hungarian soldiers during Toxic Lance at Lest Military Training Area in Lest, Slovakia, April 17-28, 2023. Slovaks and Hoosiers who specialize in chemical, biological radiological or nuclear disasters conducted training in a simulated toxic chemical environment and gained confidence in their skills, equipment, techniques and procedures. The exercise is a part of Indiana’s partnership program with Slovakia that builds troop strength and readiness for Hoosiers and Slovaks. Through cooperative NATO training exercises and key-leadership engagements, military forces from Slovakia and Indiana build lasting relationships, enhance capabilities and increase cultural awareness.
