FOAL EAGLE 2000 provided superb opportunities to rehearse wartime procedures, to enhance unit readiness levels and to demonstrate the combined strength to deter any threat. Despite differences in language and equipment, the ROK-U.S. Combined Forces Command confirmed that it continues to conduct realistic and challenging combined training every day. FOAL EAGLE, as the world’s largest field training exercise, serves as a visible demonstration of the U.S. commitment to defend the Republic of Korea and maintain a stable Korean peninsula.
