“We have to – as the only arctic airborne brigade in the #USArmy – be able to deploy out of Alaska; anywhere in the Indo-Pacific, anywhere in the Arctic, anywhere in Europe. No one else is trained & equipped to do what we do.”

Exercise #ArcticShock kicked off today in Norway.
The Arctic Angels of the 11th Airborne flew over the North Pole to link up with our Norwegian allies and expand Arctic capabilities.
Our ability to project power doesn’t stop in the Indo-Pacific.
Anywhere. Anytime.
