U.S. Army Capt. Chadwick Haider of the Minnesota National Guard steps into the icy water of a lake during a field training exercise near Haltdalen, Norway, Feb. 12, 2025. During the exercise, service members were asked to jump into the cold waters to experience what it would feel like to fall through ice and how to extract themselves using ski poles.
The Guardsmen 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.
