150709-N-BX824-034 TIMOR SEA (July 9, 2015) Fire Controlman 2nd Class James Lienemann, from Lone Pine, Calif., operates the Phalanx Close-In Weapons System remote control console during a dry-fire exercise aboard the Ticonderoga-class guided-missile cruiser USS Antietam (CG 54) during Talisman Sabre 2015. Talisman Sabre is a biennial exercise that provides an invaluable opportunity for nearly 30,000 U.S. and Australian defense forces to conduct operations in a combined, joint and interagency environment that will increase both countries' ability to plan and execute a full range of operations from combat missions to humanitarian assistance efforts.
