They note that US Army Green Berets are coaching the troops, that the drill simulates moving through enemy lines and striking a target, and that it took place at a base in Hohenfels under moonless, rainy conditions.","Several digests added context, describing the training site as a ramshackle building made to look like a church and noting the surrounding alpine terrain. One outlet called the war in Ukraine a textbook for future combat, while another highlighted NATO’s push to adapt covert operations and the broader tension with Russia. A few used the term ‘exclusive’ in their headlines.","None of the right‑rated digests mention a cost estimate for the exercise, nor do they quote officials from the US Department of Defense or the Polish Ministry of Defence.
