 Saber Strike 2015 kicks off with soldiers standing side by side, how appropriate, as over the next two weeks, they'll work hard and work shoulder to shoulder. Saber Strike also involves several significant training events with more than 10 nations in countries such as Estonia, Lithuania, Latvia. So I congratulate you for being part of this history multinational partnership. The partnership takes work, as no nation can confront today's challenges alone. Together, we'll continue to strengthen this alliance, improve our interoperability and ensure regional stability and security. Security investment is on everybody's mind. It's the first time Poland is going to be a part of Saber Strike exercise. Just like in your life, exercising keeps you strong. The soldiers here are doing the training it takes to lift the weight of freedom. I was telling them that we are proud to be here, that we are happy, that everybody can join our exercise. Shoulder to shoulder, shouldering freedom's responsibilities, so begins the heavy lifting. From the Drowsko-Pomorski Training Area in Poland, I'm Staff Sergeant Ben Woken.
