An amphibious assault vehicle (AAV) from the USS <i>Nassau</i> (LHA-4) advances onto "Green Beach" during a mock invasion in Stephenville, Newfoundland (Canada). The maritime combined operational training exercise Unified Spirit '98 includes forces from Canada, Denmark, the United Kingdom, France, the United States , and other NATO nations. The exercise provides effective, realistic training to improve the skills they might employ during a NATO led peacekeeping support operation. The U.S. amphibious transport dock ship USS <i>Nashville</i> (LPD-13) is visible in the background.
