ROMANIA (Aug. 7, 2024) A Special Warfare Combat Crewman (SWCC) fires a minigun during riverine training with Romanian Naval Forces. Training with partner nations allows special operations forces to enhance their warfighting skills, build interoperability, ensure readiness, and demonstrate the capability of ready and postured special operations forces within the European theater.
