The Military World Games will feature over 80 nations and 5,000 athletes from around the world. These athletes will be united under the ideal of 'Friendship through Sport', the motto of CISM, as the military Olympics takes place in eight cities of Gyeongsanbuk Province. This will be a festival of peace, promoting friendship between the militaries of the world and realizing universal goodwill.
The U.S. Armed Forces delegation will consist of over 170 active duty athletes competing in 16 sports, including some of our Wounded Warriors competing in para-track and field and para-archery.
