Company Attack Aurora 17
Marines with Marine Rotation Force-Europe participate in a company attack exercise as part of Exercise Aurora 17 in Sweden.
Aurora 17 is a Swedish national exercise that includes supporting forces from the U.S. and other nations. It is not a NATO exercise. Aurora 17 is the largest Swedish exercise in more than 20 years, and is intended to exercise Sweden’s defense capability against a larger, sophisticated opponent. U.S. participation, along with that of NATO Allies, partners, and Nordic countries will improve Swedish operational capabilities while promoting common regional security.
