The first US military convoy containing soldiers from 2nd Armored Brigade Combat Team, 3rd Infantry Division crosses the border between Germany and Poland at the border crossing of Kołbaskowo. The convoy, which included vehicles such as Humvees, Heavy Expanded Mobility Tactical Trucks and Medium Tactical Vehicles (FMTVs), is taking part in exercise DEFENDER-Europe 20. To limit the impact on civilian traffic, military vehicles and equipment are usually moved at night. DEFENDER-Europe 20 is a US-led multinational exercise that includes 16 NATO Allies. It is the largest deployment of US-based forces to Europe in the last 25 years, with 20,000 soldiers deploying directly from the United States to Europe. As such, it demonstrates US commitment to NATO and its resolve to stand by its European Allies. Footage includes various shots of vehicles arriving and leaving border crossing and various shots of Polish border authorities and US soldiers working together to conduct border crossing.
