U.S. Army Capt. Michael Murphy, commander, 627th Transportation Detachment, briefs to U.S. army, Norwegian army, and Finnish army Soldiers during a rehearsal of concept (ROC) drill in Narvik, Norway, on April 23, 2024. ROC drills with allied nations and partners are crucial for operational transparency and ensuring everyone involved is well-informed when it's time to execute the mission. The ROC drill is a precursor to port operations and onward movement of equipment during DEFENDER 24. DEFENDER is the Dynamic Employment of Forces to Europe for NATO Deterrence and Enhanced Readiness, and is a U.S. European Command scheduled, U.S. Army Europe and Africa conducted exercise that consists of Saber Strike, Immediate Response, and Swift Response. DEFENDER 24 is linked to NATO’s Steadfast Defender exercise, and DoD’s Large Scale Global Exercise, taking place from 28 March to 31 May. DEFENDER 24 is the largest U.S. Army exercise in Europe and includes more than 17,000 U.S. and 23,000 multinational service members from more than 20 Allied and partner nations, including Croatia, Czechia, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Georgia, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Netherlands, North Macedonia, Norway, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom.
