US Military Plans Exercises Near Guam

As far as we know, the planned exercises this month near Guam do not include any drills for the capsizing of the island.

The U.S. military plans to hold a large-scale military exercise near Guam this month.

The U.S. Pacific Fleet said Wednesday an aircraft carrier, amphibious ships, Marines and an Air Force expeditionary wing are due to participate.

The 10-day Valiant Shield exercises are scheduled to start Sunday near Palau. Ships then will steam east and the drills will end near Guam.
