Swedish soldiers with Skaraborg Regiment and U.S. Marines with 2nd Battalion, 6th Marine Regiment, 2nd Marine Division, gather around a terrain model for a Rehearsal of Concept brief in Rovaniemi, Finland, March 12, 2026. During exercise Cold Response 26, the troops conducted a ROC walk to practice and validate joint combat mission plans, which allowed participants to visualize the entire operation from start to finish. A key component of NATO's enhanced vigilance activity Arctic Sentry, exercise Cold Response 26 is a Norwegian-led winter military exercise designed to enhance collective defense capabilities and ensure U.S. readiness to rapidly deploy and seamlessly operate alongside NATO Allies in challenging arctic conditions.
