U.S. Marines worked with servicemembers from Great Britain, France and Canada during Large Scale Exercise-17 at Twentynine Palms, Calif., Aug. 15-21, 2017. LSE-17 is a multinational exercise, led by 2nd Marine Division, with elements from the United Kingdom, France, Canada and II Marine Expeditionary Force, focused on integrating all capabilities of the Marine Air-Ground Task Force and coalition forces.

Interesting, I was quoting the blog post I linked that mentioned 2021 was the first iteration of the event. I guess these previous LSE events were run by the marines and the 2021 and current one are being run by the navy while integrating the marines? Not sure.
It seems like they have expanded it each time. They had other large exercises before 2014, but they were not called LSE which I'm guessing is a recent term.
I dont see where there were seven numbered fleets (which is the ENTIRETY of the Navys numbered fleets) and 22 time zones (which covers all but two of the worlds time zones). That is the obvious point here not the fact that the military runs large scale excercises. No shit the military runs large scale exercises, they always have.
I dont understand how people here dont see you as a shill. Its really quite obvious.
Do you think I made up the fact the Military using the specific term Large Scale Exercise? As opposed to just a Large Exercise? And it specifically refers to something they do ever three years. The guy in the video may have just learned about these but he's wrong, these have happened before. He may think they have ever done anything global in scale like this, but he's wrong. The last one was global in scale.
This LSE-23 exercise is new iteration of one they ran in 2021 (only two years ago because of covid.) That was also Global in Scale. I didn't link to this because the other poster already mentioned it
Here's the map from 2021. Count the fleets, count the time zones. Does this meet your standards?
Massive 2021 U.S. Naval Drills Will Include Multiple Carriers and Amphibious Ready Groups
The Navy and Marine Corps plan to conduct a large scale exercise involving multiple strike groups and multiple numbered fleets next year, after the original plans for a Large Scale Exercise 2020 this year were postponed due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
The chief of naval operations and commandant of the Marine Corps said today that Large Scale Exercise 2021 would be the first major live test of the Distributed Maritime Operations (DMO), Littoral Operations in a Contested Environment (LOCE) and Expeditionary Advance Base Operations (EABO) concepts that are driving the bulk of their ongoing budget and acquisition decisions.
“We want to take a deeper look at DMO, LOCE, EABO and how they tie together. And so that’s important for us conceptually to ensure those concepts in a way we can visualize whether or not we need to course-correct, whether or not we’re headed precisely in the right direction,” CNO Adm. Mike Gilday said today while speaking at the U.S. Naval Institute’s annual Defense Forum Washington event.

Commandant Gen. David Berger, who spoke alongside Gilday, said that the Navy and Marine Corps had conducted plenty of exercises that focused on smaller-scale conflict that could be contained to a particular geographic area, “but against a peer adversary, there’s a clear acknowledgement that you’re probably not going to be able to contain it into a local, small region – which drives you towards multiple numbered fleets, multiple [Marine Expeditionary Forces]. The Large Scale Exercise is going to go beyond a single numbered fleet and a single MEF; it’s going to tie together, stitch together multiple fleets, multiple MEFs, on more of a globally integrated scale.”
That LSE supposed to happen in 2020, but was delayed due to Covid.
There were large scale exercises and in 2017 and 2014 as well
