The #PANAMAX26 exercise demonstrates the resolve of like-minded nations in the Western Hemisphere to ensure the region is safe from threats that undermine security, stability and democracy. Together, we are honing our capabilities to deter threats and ensure lasting regional peace. Multinational defense and security forces are training together during the Panamanian-hosted PANAMAX exercise. Held in Panama and the U.S., the exercise is strengthening the collective capability of regional forces to safeguard the Panama Canal and maintain security and stability in the Western Hemisphere. #PeaceThroughStrength #SOUTHCOM @DeptofWar @SecWar @thejointstaff @USArmyWHC @USEmbPan @MARFORSOUTH
