A U.S. Army Soldier from the 2-27th Infantry Battalion grabs more ammunition to load into his weapon while providing security on an objective during Operation Talisman Sabre in Queensland, Australia, at Shoalwater Bay Training Area on July 14, 2015. Talisman Sabre is a biennial exercise that provides an invaluable opportunity for nearly 30,000 U.S. and Australian defense forces to conduct operations in a combined joint and interagency environment that will increase both countries’ ability to plan and execute a full range of operations from combat missions to humanitarian assistance efforts.
