Nor'easter snow bomb cyclone doesn’t thwart Joint Staff South Reserve personnel from attending the four-day Super Multi-Unit Training Assembly drill weekend to provide continued manning to the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff supporting real-world crisis planning. The Super-MUTA allowed the team to create Reserve Red, Blue, and White cells to prepare exercise Beacon Serpent 22, scheduled for June 2022. Because of COVID constraints, the J36 team did not meet in person for 18 months and many of the global integrated exercises that typically occur each year were either cancelled or downsized. The aim of Beacon Serpent is to train new affiliates and refresh skills sets in Global Force Management. (U.S. Navy photo by Capt. Rob Thoms/Released)
