    The year 2022 started with a bang and lingers on, and our Photo Of The Day has never been so diversified. We’ve been from Novosibirsk, driven hunts to the Japanese jungle and we still have several months to go before the year is over. Today we have members of the Republic of Korea Navy Special Warfare Flotilla (UDT/SEAL) and United States Army Special Forces (Green Berets) performing a helocast and MOUT training during RIMPAC 2022.

    RIMPAC 2022 included twenty-six nations, 38 ships, three submarines, more than 170 aircraft and 25,000 personnel.

    The Republic of Korea Navy SEALs: all geared up in the jungle!

    The world’s largest international maritime exercise, RIMPAC provides a unique training opportunity while fostering and sustaining cooperative relationships among participants critical to ensuring the safety of sea lanes and security on the world’s oceans. RIMPAC 2022 is the 28th exercise in the series that began in 1971.
