BLACK SEA, July 19. 2018. A US. Navy Maritime Patrol Aircraft P8 passes overhead SNMG2 flagship HNLMS De Ruyter while conducting a Combined Anti-Submarine Warfare exercise (CASEX) during Exercise BREEZE 18. BREEZE is a Bulgarian- led exercise which is designed to enhance the interoperability of the participating units and strengthen cooperation by practicing different warfare techniques in a multi-dimensional scenario. Multinational participating forces and their crews will be tested in a wide range of warfare tactics focusing on regional security. This year participants include 25 ships, 1 submarine, 9 aircraft, and 2340 military staff out of 11 countries (Bulgaria, Belgium, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Netherland, Poland, Turkey, Romania and the United States ).

On Tuesday 21st June 2022, Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service hosted Exercise Mitchell, a large-scale training exercise at their Bury Training and Safety Centre.
The exercise focused on testing the multi-agency operational response to a CBRNE incident by working with partners and volunteers.
Volunteers were on hand to play the part of casualties following a chemical incident on a tram. Greater Manchester Police (GMP), Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service (GMFRS), North West Ambulance Service (NWAS), Transport for Greater Manchester (TFfG) and other partners responded to the incident.
The exercise commenced with joint working between emergency service control rooms in the early stages of the incident, with several calls being made on 999 calls reporting an incident had occurred on the tram.
It took the form of a multi-agency response to the incident in the morning, working with GMP and NWAS. Later in the afternoon crews also set up and tested the Mass Decontamination Unit, helping volunteers through the process.
This training helps to reinforce understanding of different agencies roles and responsibilities during the response to such an incident and validate learning from the response to previous Major Incidents in Greater Manchester. The exercise also reinforced JESIP principles and procedures to help embed multi-agency working amongst Greater Manchester and regional partners.
Further elements of the exercise will take place later in the year, focusing on the Strategic Coordinating Group (SCG) and Tactical Coordinating Group (TCG) elements of a Major Incident.
The overall exercise helped to test the multi-agency response at the Strategic, Tactical and Operational levels including looking at the operational response, Local Resilience Forum procedures and interoperability between organisations.

The Theatre Equipment Support Battalion recently held an Interoperability Exercise (IOX) at Camp Bastion, Afghanistan. It was a high profile event attended by UK, U.S, Danish, and Estonian participants and by members of the Afghan National Army (ANA).
The exercise demonstrated how vehicles are recovered during Combat Logistic Patrols (CLPs) in the event of breakdown, being bogged down or being disabled by enemy action. CLP’s are often a multi-national affair; hence the requirement to recover vehicles is essential. This exercise was an opportunity to demonstrate multi-national procedures and ensure compliance between the different nations.

Strobist info: 2 flashes (vivitar 285hvs), one in shoot through immediate camera left at full, one about 2 feet away from subject, bare and I think at 1/4 (I could be wrong on that). Fired with ebay triggers.
I would have done something more interesting if I was smarter. As it was, my wife was watching top chef on the TV that looks off in the early shots, and I picked up my kids toy and then positioned it so I could watch, too, while I worked on the assigment. Left flash didn't have enough time to recycle on shot no. 2 (1/160).
