Nature of exercise

This article is vaguely worded, specifically as regards what went on. Did ships sail around, did planes fly, was ammunition discharged and bombs dropped on the water or various targets, what? Or is this a secret? Badagnani 18:47, 24 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I imagine what went on was typical of most wargames. I also image that they wouldn't be showing off any American secrets in front of the PRA. freshofftheufo ΓΛĿЌ 19:12, 24 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

We showed North Korea thru their sugar daddy China that even while engaged in Afganistan and Iraq we still have enough conventional forces to kick their ass. It's a quite standard show of force. Called rattling the sabers, sometimes. It is also a means of training the troops. But with two war theatres in operation, you can guess what the most important of the two objectives was.
