This year marks the 10th and largest iteration of Talisman Sabre, a biennial exercise designed to advance a free and open Indo-Pacific.
Troops participating in Talisman Sabre 23 cleared a key milestone as part of a large-scale, joint logistics operation to bring ashore heavy military equipment from ships stationed off the coast of central Queensland, Australia.
The U.S. and its allies are sending an unmistakable message of resolve toward maintaining a free and open Indo-Pacific during this year’s large-scale military exercise in Australia, the commander of the U.S. Army’s 25th Infantry Division said.
Exercise Talisman Sabre is all about preventing war through having as many allies and partners as possible that have like-minded goals, U.S. Marine Corps Brig. Gen. Kevin Jarrard, assistant division commander of the 1st Marine Division, said.
