Incoming: Logistics Exercise Involving the U.S. Army

---

The United States has been conducting a record-setting logistics exercise in the Indo-Pacific, which is considered one of the most challenging theaters in the world. A two-week training is set to start in late July, during which the Army will face numerous challenges and tough terrains in Australia. While other drills will also be emphasized, most of the focus will be on prioritizing logistics, which will be treated as a warfighting function.

Talisman Sabre is a biennial joint military exercise conducted by the United States and Australia. It is one of the largest military exercises in the Asia-Pacific region and is designed to enhance interoperability and cooperation between the two countries' armed forces. The exercise involves a wide range of military activities, including joint training, field exercises, live-fire exercises, amphibious operations, and humanitarian and disaster relief operations.

The objectives of Talisman Sabre include improving military readiness, enhancing interoperability and coordination between U.S. and Australian forces, strengthening regional security and stability, and promoting mutual understanding and cooperation between the two countries' armed forces. The exercise provides an opportunity for U.S. and Australian forces to train together in a realistic and challenging environment, exchange tactics, techniques, and procedures, and develop their capabilities for joint and combined operations.
