Croatian Brigadier General Danko Pintaric, Joint Logistics Support Group Commander, gives an
interview on his units progress thus far for Trident Juncture 2018 at a training ground in
Sessvollmoen, Norway. The unit is part of NATO’s Very High Readiness Joint Task Force, which is
exercising in Norway as part of Trident Juncture 2018.
NATO and Norway are holding one of the largest military exercises ever held in the country.
During October and November, around 50,000 participants from all over NATO and its partners
have come to Norway for exercise Trident Juncture 2018.
The exercise tests the whole military chain – from troop training at the tactical level, to
command over large forces. It trains the troops of the NATO Response Force and forces from
other allies and partners, ensuring they can work seamlessly together.

“The best opportunity I could imagine is what this exercise provides to us to train together.
You’d never be able to experience anything like this in a CPX or BST or artificial training. This is
the real operation. For us, for logisticians and from logistics perspective, this is the real
operation where we have the chance to really stress test all our capabilities and knowledge and
prove that we made it happen. Forces are already where they are supposed to be, that means
that we are capable to deploy for any operation for collective defense.”
