U.S. Army Soldiers assigned to the 11th Engineer Battalion, 2d Infantry Division Sustainment Brigade, 2d Infantry Division/ROK-U.S. Combined Division, wait for an Improved Ribbon Bridge to deploy during a combined wet-gap crossing training exercise as part of Ulchi Freedom Shield near Yeoju, South Korea, Aug. 27, 2025. The pairing of the boat with the bridge sections allows engineers to assemble and anchor floating bridges, ensuring sustained mobility across water obstacles.
Ulchi Freedom Shield is an annual combined exercise conducted in support of the ROK-U.S. Mutual Defense Treaty signed in 1953. This combined exercise program highlights the ironclad commitment between the two nations to maintain a robust combined defense posture and to defend the people of the ROK from any threat.
