 Hi, I'm Lieutenant Pete Pogano and welcome back aboard USS Jason Dunham, DDG 109. We're out here on the Baltic Sea with our partners and allies from Baltop to 2015. As you can tell in the background, we've already gotten started with some exciting exercises. Today, we conducted maneuvering exercises with 16 other partner nations, fielding 49 ships, 61 aircraft, manned by more than 5,600 personnel. Over the last few days in Gdynia, Poland, we've gotten to work with our partners and allies, their naval and marine corps counterparts to plan all of these exciting exercises. Over the next 10 days, we're going to be doing scenarios like live gunnery exercises, air defense, anti-surface warfare, anti-submarine warfare, maritime interdiction and so much more. We can't wait to bring these exciting sea stories back home to you. So as always, follow along here on this blog and on Facebook and Twitter.
