Allied Spirit

Soldiers convoy to the Hohenfels Training Area, Germany, for the upcoming Exercise Allied Spirit, Feb. 25, 2025. The exercise is designed to prepare a multinational brigade in support of NATO deterrence initiatives. Unlike other U.S. Army Europe and Africa exercises, which feature U.S. brigade combat teams in a lead role, a brigade from a NATO ally is serving as the primary training audience.
