170710-N-ZW825-156 CORAL SEA (July 10, 2017) The amphibious transport dock ship USS Green Bay (LPD 20) transits the Coral Sea during a replenishment-at-sea as part of Talisman Saber 17. Sterett, part of a combined U.S., Australia and New Zealand expeditionary strike group (ESG), is undergoing a series of scenarios that will increase proficiency defending the ESG against blue-water threats so amphibious forces can launch Marine forces ashore in the littorals. Talisman Saber is a biennial U.S.-Australia bilateral exercise held off the coast of Australia meant to achieve interoperability and strengthen the U.S.-Australia alliance.
