We have scheduled a Bloggers Roundtable at 10 a.m. EDT Sept. 16, with Col. Daniel Roper, director, U.S. Army and Marine Corps Counterinsurgency Center at Fort Leavenworth, Kan., will discuss the U.S. Army approach toward preparing for counterinsurgency challenges in current operational theaters.  He will address efforts to prepare leaders and units to conduct stability operations and efforts to enable Iraqi and Afghan security forces to generate, employ, and sustain security forces that are capable of dealing with their operational challenges.  He also will address ongoing initiatives with respect to Irregular Challenges and threats.  Additionally, he will provide insights obtained from recent engagements with multi-national partners including UK, Turkey, Egypt, Pakistan, Germany, Canada, India, and Australia as well as upcoming events with Italy, UK, Egypt, France, and Germany.
