Soldiers from 3rd Battalion, 69th Armor Regiment, join Bulgarian military allies line up for a picture after a live-fire tank shoot firing the first ever rounds fired by a U.S. M1A2 tanks in Bulgaria at Novo Selo Training Area, Bulgaria, June 25. In Operation Speed and Power, U.S. Army tanks were transported from Germany to Bulgaria and fired by Soldiers from the 3rd Battalion, 69th Armor Regiment alongside Bulgarian soldiers from the 6th Brigade Battle Group. Operation Speed and Power is part of Operation Atlantic Resolve and is a joint training exercise which demonstrates U.S. Army Europe's preparedness to deliver strategic effect in Atlantic Resolve-South by showcasing the freedom of movement to maneuver and fire M1A2 Abrams anywhere along the Eastern Flank. This ability enables the NATO allies to defend themselves against all threats, and shows that the alliance remains ready to defend itself anywhere at any time. (U.S. Army photos by Spc.
