 Explosive Ordnance Disposal teams from the U.S., Germany and Spain teamed up for a rare trilateral training event in Rota. It's just a great opportunity for us to learn what information they've gathered over the years and we can give them some of the information we've gathered so we all learn from each other to great opportunity to learn each other's equipments, tactics and those types of things. It doesn't happen often, these types of engagements maybe only happen once a year or so. So it's just a wonderful opportunity to learn from each other, have a good time together and build camaraderie between nations and it's just an all around awesome time. Even though some of the men had worked together before, there were still opportunities to learn something new. It's a good chance for us to collect a lot of experience with other nations, especially with the United States, Navy and with the Spanish Navy as well. Normally we have not the chance to train that often back home in Germany with foreign nations and yeah we learned a lot here, especially as today fast roping and we're looking forward to learn even some more IED tactics within the next days. By the end of the week the teams went their separate ways but took with them the knowledge and friendships they'd made. Thank you everybody. Officer Andrew Smith, Roda, Spain.
