Operation Trident Juncture: NATO's Distinguished Visitor's Day

[DFighter]

Came across this video it looked pretty cool and seems nice to share keep the politics about it out the topic and just enjoy the video or not.

Pretty epic video there showing a massive training exercise.  It's a tough life being a soldier 💂‍♂️

Anyone who has experienced it has got my thanks

Very interesting!  I wonder if the locals got to stay in their homes an watch?  Probably not, although any explosions seen would have been pre-emplaced and not from actual weapons.

 

Interesting that one of the rifles had a shell-extractor control on top of it.  I could not see if the two items ejected were shells or full cartridges.

 

I wondered why the chopper in the fast-roping display had water dripping from its right-rear wheel (pilot's orientation).  I hope that it was water and not fuel!  😮 

 

It was fun trying to spot all of the nations' flags on boats, armored vehicles and uniforms.   I could have sworn that I saw the US flag on one landing-craft and that the one beside it flew the French flag as they beached. (?)
