During scenarios in cold weather, the U.S. Army is able to test strategies and equipment to see what functions best in an environment like Alaska.
Soldiers with the 2nd Infantry Brigade Combat Team, 11th Airborne Division joined a multitude of global military allies, including Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light Infantry and observers from other Pacific Rim countries such as Japan, India, and Nepal. European observers were also present from Italy, Germany, Norway and Finland.“The key objective is for us to get out here and get our soldiers out in the cold and snow,” Pennell said.
“This is a great yardstick to evaluate our training,” Pennell said. “It tells us what areas of our training is doing well, what areas we might need to refocus on.” “Earlier this year, we deployed soldiers to India where we worked with the Indian Army in the Himalayas,” he said. “Later this year, we will be sending some folks over to Mongolia to interact with the Mongolian Army.”
