March 2, 2023 — Native Fury is a biennial, joint, and multinational exercise led by Marine Corps Forces Central Command (MARCENT) that takes place within the Central Command (CENTCOM) area of responsibility (AOR). This year, Native Fury 2022 (NF22) was conducted in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). Participants for the exercise included Army Central Command (ARCENT), MARCENT, Naval Forces Central Command (NAVCENT), Air Forces Central Command (AFCENT), and the KSA Ministry of Defense (MOD) forces. For ARCENT, the purpose of the exercise was twofold. First, it allowed the command to demonstrate its ability to conduct joint reception, staging, onward movement, and integration (JRSOI) from port to fort for units entering the AOR. Second, and equally as important, it was an opportunity to strengthen the partnerships between U.S. service components and our international partners. Decisively, NF22 met both objectives. The planning, preparation, and execution of this exercise were seamlessly organized between participants and validated our ability to deploy, fight, and win in complex environments. MORE
