    The President is authorized to furnish, on such terms and conditions

training to military and related civilian personnel of foreign 
countries. Such civilian personnel shall include foreign governmental

military, (iii) contribute to cooperation between military and law 
enforcement personnel with respect to counternarcotics law enforcement 
efforts, or (iv) improve military justice systems and procedures in 
accordance with internationally recognized human rights. Such training 
and education may be provided through--

    in the United States (other than Service academies) and abroad;
        (2) attendance in special courses of instruction at schools and 
    institutions of learning or research in the United States and 
    abroad; and
