US-Großübung "Defender Europe 21" mit Grafenwöhrer Unterstützung

Vor einem Jahr stoppte die Corona-Pandemie das größte Manöver der USA seit dem Kalten Krieg in Europa. Beim zweiten Anlauf in diesem Jahr ist der Schutz vor Corona eingeplant. Und wieder spielt die Grafenwöhr eine wichtige Rolle.

Diese Rakete feuern die Soldaten des 41st Field Artillery Brigade am 24. Februar auf dem Truppenübungsplatz Grafenwöhr ab. Später im Jahr wird die Brigade nach Bulgarien und Estland verlegen, um die große US-Übung "Defender Europe21" zu unterstützen.
