POTD: US Naval Special Warfare Operators In Exercise Malabar
Here U.S. Naval Special Warfare operators and Indian Marine Commandos conduct an over-the-beach training exercise in Visakhapatnam, India. Malabar 24 is a joint field training exercise involving the Indian Navy, Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force, and the U.S. Navy. The exercise enhances strategic objectives by strengthening partnerships in the Indo-Pacific and improving interoperability for complex warfighting operations and gives us some excellent images for our Photo Of The Day.
