Awesome Joint Training !! United States & Croatian Army Conduct Artillery Exercise in Croatia

Awesome Joint Training !! Unites Stated & Croatian Army Conduct Artillery Exercise in Croatia


The Croatian military has presence in two of the four NATO Enhanced Forward Presence Battle Groups in the Baltic Region.

All previous and future exercises rely on communication within the battle group as a battle group. Importantly, the common operating picture and testing of these systems are true measures of success for this four-day exercise. 

“The recent fire and maneuver training exercise is the culmination to a progressive training plan,” said U.S. Army Lt. Col. Scott Cheney, 3rd Squadron, 2nd Cavalry Regiment and Battle Group Poland commander. “Our goal is to ensure our allies understand Combined Arms Maneuver.”

The U.S.-led battle squadron deployed to North East Poland since October with the mission to defend NATO's eastern boarder along with three other battle groups positioned in Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia.

“By training together frequently, we are able to find efficiencies and leverage the unique capabilities each nation brings to ensure we maximize our combat power,” said U.S. Army Maj. Ryan Duffy, 3rd Squadron, 2nd Cavalry Regiment and Battle Group Poland operations officer. “This exercise prepares us and refines our ability to perform our deterrence mission together and ensures our ability to "Fight Tonight."

This is the last multinational training exercise for this rotational deployment that serves to test and improve interoperability.
