Major-General Craig Rasmussen, Director of Logistics and Security at the United States European Command, Stuttgart, Germany, on Thursday held a closed-door meeting with Lieutenant General Seth Obeng, Chief of Defence Staff, in Accra.

Officers and men from the Air Force Base mounted a guard in honour of Major-General Rasmussen before the two men had discussions.

The call forms part of a two-day visit by the US General during which he is expected to open the new Office of Defence Corporation at the United states Embassy in Accra.
