NATO troops rehearse river crossing drills ahead of DEFENDER-Europe 20
Staff officers from NATO’s Allied Rapid Reaction Corps (ARRC) visit British Royal Engineers in Minden, northwestern Germany to learn about amphibious engineering ahead of the Corps’s participation in Exercise ‘Defender Europe 20’. The troops from the British Army’s 23 Amphibious Engineer Squadron will play a key role during the massive US-led exercise where they will come under the command of the multinational NATO corps. The staff officers witnessed the Royal Engineers rehearse 'wide wet gap' crossing drills on their M3 Amphibious Rigs at their German base on the River Weser.
