Strykers in Germany

Sep-21-2008 » Filed Under: 3/2 SBCT

Stars & Stripes has another article describing the training exercise elements of the 3/2 SBCT are participating in. Excerpt:

Training with an Afghan scenario, with coalition partners in Germany, is an interesting experience for the Strykers, who got back from Iraq in September last year and are waiting to find out what their next assignment will be, he said.

"Any time we can work with the nations we are going to work with downrange is a bonus. Our [allies’] armies tend to be similar to us in structure, but there are a lot of small things that, if you are not familiar with them, can create problems," he said.

The U.S. Army says it is unlikely that the Strykers will head to Afghanistan, but Goodine said they would have not a problem operating there if the call came.
