This was an opportunity for U.S. Soldiers and Latvian soldiers to work shoulder to shoulder and demonstrates that the U.S. and our Allies and partners are making strides toward interoperability by continuously training together. Operation Atlantic Resolve, a U.S. led effort in Eastern Europe that demonstrates U.S. commitment to the collective security of NATO and dedication to enduring peace and stability in the region.
