Embedded Training Teams

ETT Commander inspects ANA March 2009

Embedded Training Teams or ETT is the term used by the US military[1][2][3][4] since 2003[5] to describe conventional forces used to train and mentor Afghan forces (ANA and ANP primarily). They were formed in 2003 under Task Force Phoenix. Although ETT refers to the Embedded Training "Team", members of the team itself commonly refer to themselves as "ETTs"
