    Soldiers join in prayer with Bishop Bill Muhm, auxiliary bishop for the Arch Dioecies of Military Services Europe and Asia, in Catholic Mass held during DEFENDER 23, Slobozia, Romania, May 29, 2023. A traditional Catholic Mass is rare in field environments, this was a special occasion for the soldier who participated.

DEFENDER 23 includes more than 7,800 U.S. and 15,000 multi-national service members from more than 20 nations who will participate including, but not limited to: Estonia, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Latvia, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Spain, United Kingdom and the United States.
