SABER JUNCTION 20 is a 7th Army Training Command-conducted, US Army Europe-directed annual exercise designed to assess the readiness of the US Army’s 173rd Airborne Brigade to execute unified land operations in a joint, combined environment, and to promote interoperability with participating allies and partner nations.
