    Minnesota, Norway strengthen training ties in 52nd troop exchange

    Skijoring is a transportation technique Minnesota National Guardsmen learned during a field training exercise Feb. 10, 2025, at Haltdalen, Norway. The practice is a way to move troops around battlespace quickly while conserving energy.
    The guardsmen participating in this training are a part of the Reciprocal Norwegian Exchange, commonly referred to as NOREX, a partnership program whereby approximately 100 Minnesota National Guardsmen and 100 Norwegian Home Guardsmen visit the opposite country to train and exchange cultural understandings. This is the 52nd year the two nations have participated in the NOREX and is one of the longest running state partnership programs in the world.
