We have a need for information from around the world and the kind of training you do for both non-commissioned officers and officers, is critical to our ability to function abroad,” said Smith, in a separate interview. “I am very familiar with the contributions that DLI graduates make in the intelligence community,” said Smith. “(DLI) is a critical component, the backbone, if you will, of training for our young men and women who will be our eyes and ears out there when it comes to the collection of information.”
Smith and his spouse also visited Russian and Spanish foreign language classes on Oct. 31, and had the opportunity see DLIFLC students observe the traditional “Dia de los Muertos,” or day of the dead, with music, recitals and skits. The couple also visited DLIFLC’s isolation immersion facility and observed Arabic and Korean language immersion sessions.
