CAPLJINA, Bosnia and Herzegovina -- Air Force Senior Master Sgt. Dwayne Gordon, 48th Fighter Wing Public Affairs from RAF Lakenheath, England, sips water from a natural spring near the Buna river mouth during the Shared Resilience 2012 Cultural Day tour June 3. Steps to the waterside led tour participants to a dish attached to a wall chain. The locals believe scooping up and drinking the cold, clear spring water is good luck. Approximately 30 cubic meters per second of water emerge from the spring, which is 30,000 liters. More than 500 military members from nine nations are participating

More than 500 military members from nine nations are participating in SR12, the annual Joint Chiefs of Staff sponsored exercise, May 28 - June 8. The goals of the exercise are to strengthen interoperability, facilitate training in crisis response and disaster management, and validate the readiness of deployable military medical and humanitarian assistance teams. The exercise, in the spirit of partnership for peace, directly supports European Command's theater cooperation efforts and strategy for active security with European countries.
