    A Norwegian Home Guard soldier with 3rd Platoon, District 11, posts security during the emplacement of allied fires and air defense systems in Jan Mayen, Norway, Aug. 30, 2026. The integrated security, conducted during Operation Atlantic City 26, is essential for the protection of high-value assets, ensuring NATO can establish and defend a lethal, layered defense in the High North. Atlantic City 26 is a Norwegian-led trilateral readiness initiative with the United Kingdom and United States designed to develop and demonstrate expeditionary advanced base capabilities and validate combined fires, maritime domain awareness, and sea denial to reinforce the security and stability of the High North. Jan Mayen is sovereign Norwegian territory in an isolated part of the Norwegian Sea, approximately 1,000 kilometers (620 miles) from mainland Norway. At the same time, the island occupies an important geostrategic position north of the Greenland-Iceland-U.K. gap, an area of water strategically significant to the defense of the U.S. homeland and northern Europe.
