Ready for anything: Spangdahlem kicks off Swift Saber 25

U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Kalen Dozzi, 52nd Civil Engineer Squadron prime base engineer force training manager, searches for the remnants of a simulated chemical attack as part of Exercise Swift Saber 25 at Spangdahlem Air Base, Germany, April 21, 2025. Emergency Management specialists were evaluated on their ability to execute coordinated responses to simulated chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear (CBRN) attacks during the combat readiness exercise. Exercises like Swift Saber 25 strengthen the 52nd Fighter Wing’s warfighting capabilities by validating Agile Combat Employment concepts such as rapid threat response, dispersed operations, and mission generation in contested environments.
