Leaders from the US Navy (USN) and the US Marine Corps (USMC) said they expect this year's ‘Large Scale Exercise (LSE) 2023', which takes place from 9 to 18 August, to push the US naval forces and command to the limit around the globe.

“We've not done anything like this on a global scale,” USN Captain Christopher Narducci, lead planner for LSE 2023, said on 24 July during a media roundtable about the exercise at Naval Station Norfolk in Virginia.

Noting that the US conducted the first LSE in 2021, Admiral Daryl Caudle, commander of US Fleet Forces Command, said during the roundtable that while the LSE 2023 was going to expand geographic parameters, the exercise this year would “narrow” the focus.
