Just months after the Army's new training brigade returned from Afghanistan, its teams are preparing for a different type of deployment that will scatter them around the world. "I think future deployments throughout the world will be in much smaller packages," Jackson said, adding that the brigade was built in 2017 to be decentralized. Since the brigade returned from Afghanistan, its training has shifted a bit to focus on developing training plans and working more as military consultants that can pinpoint the needs of the partner forces. Joseph Maciel , of South Gate, California, was shot and killed by a member of the Afghan security forces in July, and Sgt. And the training by the new Army brigades is aimed at that goal.
