The second military sealift ship of six carrying US 3rd Infantry Division materiel for DEF20 (DEFENDER-Europe 20) has now berthed in Bremerhaven.

~

New Release, 25 February 2020: M/V Green Bay, a contracted roll-on, roll-off vessel with Military Sealift Command, has arrived in Bremerhaven port to offload cargo for DEFENDER-Europe 20. Green Bay transited more than 470 pieces of equipment across the Atlantic.

DEFENDER-Europe 20 will not only test the US military’s global deployment and strategic readiness capabilities, it will also test our ability to work with our NATO allies and partners to receive and move a large force, requiring the support of tens of thousands of service members and civilians in multiple nations across the theatre.
