U.S. Navy Seabees and Republic of Korea sailors begin assembling a runway patchwork during a Rapid Runway Repair drill, Feb 29. The combined efforts of the two country services ensured the runway was completed in less than 30 minutes. The Rapid Runway Repair Exercise is a combined/joint venture between ROK Chinhae Base Command Facility Group and Naval Mobile Construction Battalion 5 out of Port Hueneme, Calif. Both units are participating in Exercise Key Resolve/Foal Eagle 2008, an annual combined/joint exercise involving forces from both the U.S. and the ROK. This exercise provides training to further enhance interoperability and combat readiness, while also demonstrating both countries commitment to the ROK/US alliance.
