U.S. Army Sgt. 1st Class Katie Govoni, civil affairs team sergeant, Sgt. Brandan Supernault, a civil affairs specialist, and Staff Sgt. Sean Rockcliffe, a civil affairs noncommissioned officer with Civil Affairs Team 4334, 443rd Civil Affairs Battalion discuss the importance of the civil affairs profession in Atašiene, Latvia June 5, 2025. Civil affairs consists of small team units who work with key political leaders within the civilian population, to meet with schools, engage with local communities while bringing those observations to U.S. military leaders when advising them with how the civilians see the U.S. within that particular area. Doing so facilitates stronger partnership and enhances relationships at the local level. The continued presence of V Corps in Europe contributes to operational continuity and supports NATO’s mission across a dynamic regional landscape. (U.S. Army video by Staff Sgt. Rose Di Trolio)
