Parachute jumps at Shoalwater Bay Training Area
The
Australian Defence Force (ADF) and United States (US) forces are
participating in four weeks of intensive training at Shoalwater
Bay, Rockhampton, Townsville and the Coral Sea during Exercise Talisman Sabre 2005
More than 6,000 Australian and 11,000 US personnel from Navy, Army,
Air Force, Marine and Special Forces units are participating in
TS05, a merger of the Tandem Thrust and Crocodile series of exercises.
Talisman Sabre’s primary aim is to conduct collective training and
exercise inter-operability between Australian and US forces while
further developing the ADF’s capability to undertake joint, combined
operations and will also help build regional security and complement
our regional partner’s activities with the US.
