U.S. Army Soldiers from Alpha Battery, 1-77 Field Artillery Regiment, 41st Field Artillery Brigade, conduct a High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS) live fire exercise as part of a HIMARS Rapid Infiltration (HIRAIN) exercise at Novo Selo Training Range, Bulgaria, June 1, 2021. This first-of-its-kind in Bulgaria exercise demonstrates the unit's ability to rapidly deploy long-range precision fires and return to their point of origin within 24 hours. The LFX was in support of both the Fires Shock series of exercise and Saber Guardian 21. Saber Guardian 21 is a linked exercise of DEFENDER-Europe 21. DEFENDER-Europe 21 is a large-scale U.S. Army-led exercise designed to build readiness and interoperability between the U.S., NATO allies and partner militaries. This year, more than 28,000 multinational forces from 26 nations will conduct nearly simultaneous operations across more than 30 training areas in more than a dozen countries from the Baltics to the strategically important Balkans and Black Sea Region.
