A U.S. Army Diver assigned to the 569th Dive Detachment, 84th Engineer Battalion, 130th Engineer Brigade, practices exothermic cutting alongside U.S. Military personnel at the Autoridad del Canal de Panamá, Panama Aug. 6, 2026. The exercise furthered interoperability, underwater operational readiness and the long-standing partnership between U.S. Army divers and Panamanian security personnel in support of maritime security and critical infrastructure operations. PANAMAX 2026 scenarios help the defense and public security forces of participating nations improve interoperability, hone their skills during scenarios involving coalition and all-domain operations, forge strong cooperative partnerships, and demonstrate their collective capacity to respond to and deter threats to the region and its critical waterways.(U.S. Army photo by Sgt.
