I’m a graduate of DLI, but that was way back in the dark ages. It’s amazing what they’ve done over the last few years in the way of outreach for deploying forces. No longer is language training just the purview of Intel and SOF personnel. This video is about the Eagle Language Training Center at Fort Campbell designed to provide 16-week intensive language training courses to combat arms Soldiers.

What’s really cool about the Eagle Language Training Center is that it offers a Cultural Immersion Center where portions of the training environment were prepared by our friends at Military Wraps. It includes a market area, common area, and a Government office which allows students to interact in a realistic environment complete with role players to practice their new language skills.
