Foreign Military Financing: Suriname


The Bush Administration's budget presentation for 2003 explains, "The United States will use its FY 2003 Foreign Military Financing (FMF) funds to support deployment of U.S. mobile training teams to support organizational restructuring of the Infantry and Special Forces battalion, along with medical, logistics, and staff officer training. Other uses of FMF funds include supporting small patrol craft, vehicle maintenance, and troop support in the form of uniforms and boots." [1]
