BAUMHOLDER, Germany (May 12, 2008) - Regardless if military communication specialists are participating in their 14th Combined Endeavor communications interoperability exercise or their very first, their achievements, simple or complex, are crucial for the continued development of the craft of military communications for their nations and coalitions.

"When nations come to Combined Endeavor, they bring their best and brightest communicators," said U.S. Army Lt. Col. James Pugh, CE 08 exercise director.  "We bring together people in a secure, low pressure environment to work out serious technical challenges.  The reason we do this is no nation deploys anywhere in the world as a single entity.  There's always a partner nation there."

BAUMHOLDER, Germany -- Communication interoperability is the mission at Combined Endeavor 2008 and finding new solutions to share information at the right classification level, at the right time and to the right partners is one of this year's objectives. 

While all CE 08 participating nations need to have access to information pertaining specifically to the NATO and coalition operations they support, they still need to maintain their national security.

Cross domain information sharing gives participating nations the ability to share information using various mediums, including web and e-mail.
