U.S. Army Europe and Africa, along with our NATO and Partner Allies, annually host a Tank Challenge. This training event is designed to give participating nations a dynamic and productive environment in which to foster military partnerships, form Soldier-level relationships, and share tactics, techniques and procedures.
 
The European International Tank Challenge was formerly known as the Strong Europe Tank Challenge. Images, video and stories that are older will appear under that name further down the timeline.

Operation Tomodachi Humanitarian Aid
31st Marine Expeditionary Unit
March 27, 2011 | 3:13
U.S. Marines with the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU), and Navy Sailors with the forward deployed amphibious assault ship USS Essex (LHD-2), transport Japanese utility vehicles, food and water supplies on a Landing Craft Utility (LCU), from Kesennuma, Japan to Oshima, Japan for humanitarian aid during operation Tomodachi. The 31st MEU's involvement is part of a larger U.S. government response, after a 9.0 earthquake and subsequent tsunami struck Japan causing wide spread damage. The 31st MEU is ready to support our Japanese partners and to provide assistance when called upon. (U.S. Marine Corps motion imagery by Lance Cpl. Chance M. Hiser).
