WW3 is so "in" right now!
The annual NATO Saber Junction land warfare exercise is being held in Bavaria until September 19th. The joint exercise will have 4,300 troops, mostly from the U.S. (of course) but also include troops from Albania, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Croatia, Georgia, Italy, Lithuania, Montenegro, Moldova, North Macedonia, and the United Kingdom.
This year's theme is "fighting the Russians"!
Here are a couple of videos of the 173rd parachuting in for the exercises:
The paratroopers are facing off against the Army's 1st Battalion and 4th Infantry Regiment, who come equipped with faux Russian vehicles. The defenders are also using communication jammers and drones, just like the Russians.
Farms in Bavaria served as the drop zone this week for a practice run showing what allied forces might experience if ever faced with a Russian incursion.
All young men of draftable age in America right now:
On Wednesday, scores of paratroopers from the 173rd Airborne Brigade jumped from Air Force C-130s and C-17s into the tiny hamlet of Eglsee as part of exercise Saber Junction.
Sgt.1st Class Austin Pounds, a platoon sergeant from Galveston, Texas, who parachuted in to fight the faux Russians said his troops had eight days of fighting ahead of them.
'As soon as we get in, we're going to get our teeth kicked in,' he said. 'But we're scrappy, so we'll kick right back.'
As far as the purposes of the exercises go, Brig. General Steven Carpenter said,
Large scale combat operations is something that we always have to practice we have to stay on top of all the changes taking place uh what I say is we have to adapt to what's going on in the Ukraine, and we need to train that at combat training centers like this and the two we have back in the United States.
I'm all for being prepared for every conceivable situation, but that really sounds like they're gearing up to fight the Russians to me.
I hope you're ready for "joy" in both European and Asian theaters should Kamala get into the White House!
