Video: NATO Allies train in defence operations and counter attacks during Exercise Iron Wolf


Exercise Iron Wolf II tested the ability of nine NATO nations to carry out defensive operations and counter-attacks.

During one scenario, troops from the United Kingdom and the Czech Republic teamed up to launch a mock attack on a village defended by Dutch forces.

Each nation had Observer Controllers (OCTs) assigned to them to monitor the attacks and designate casualties.

We talked to Royal Marines Lieutenant Henry Asquith about his role as an OCT for the British Army platoons from the 2 Rifles.
