Is this the exercise that the North Koreans condemned as a hostile act and said they'd react if we went through with it?

Great pics. Thanks for your service. I remember taking part in multi-service exercises during my stint in the USAF. They're a lot of fun. Like Blunt indicated, enjoy it while you can, a lot of us wish we could go back, even though most of us probably bitched about it the entire time we were in!!
