    A Norwegian soldier from the Home Guard supervises the loading process of several Light Armored Vheicles and other heavy equipment in Rena, Norway. One of several transportation options for moving U.S. Marine Corps fighting vehicles and equipment is by train. Rena, Norway was the location where Light Armored Vehicles were loaded after training with the Telemark Battalion. The crews are now trained and the vehicles have been tested in harsh winter conditions. They will join the host nation of Norway along with the other 10 participating nations for Exercise Cold Response set to begin on the 29th. The exercise will feature maritime, land, and air operations to underscore NATO's ability to defend against any threat in any environment. The location in central Norway provides a unique, extreme cold-weather environment for all forces involved to develop tactics, techniques, and procedures and learn from one another.
