Dynamic Front

The next iteration of exercise Dynamic Front takes place from Nov. 4-24, 2024 in Finland, Estonia, Germany, Poland, and Romania. It demonstrates NATO’s ability to share fire missions, target information, and operational graphics from the Arctic to the Black Sea.
The exercise increases the lethality of the Alliance through long-distance fires, builds unit readiness in a complex joint, multi-national environment, and leverages host nation capabilities to increase USARUER-AF’s operational reach. Dynamic Front is planned to include more than 1,800 U.S. and 3,700 multi-national service members from 28 Allied and partner nations.

Berlin Lake Eclipse 2024

Elizabeth Morsillo and Nicole Govan, natural resource specialists with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Pittsburgh District, share their experiences of the total solar eclipse as it passed over Berlin Lake Dam in Deerfield Township, Ohio, April 8, 2024.

Berlin Lake is one of 16 flood damage reduction projects in the Pittsburgh District. The reservoir provides flood protection for the Mahoning River Valley as well as for the Beaver and Upper Ohio Rivers. The Pittsburgh District had a total of seven reservoirs located within the solar eclipse’s path of totality in 2024. The locations included Michael J. Kirwan Dam in Ravenna, Ohio; Berlin Lake Dam in Deerfield Township, Ohio; Mosquito Creek Lake in Cortland, Ohio; Shenango River Lake in Hermitage, Pennsylvania; Woodcock Creek Lake in Saegertown, Pennsylvania; Union City Dam in Waterford, Pennsylvania; and the Allegheny Reservoir which stretches across northwestern Pennsylvania into New York.

Since the founding of the United States in 1776, there have been 21 total solar eclipses visible from the continental U.S. The next total solar eclipse visible from North America will be Aug. 22, 2044, over North Dakota and Montana.

Pittsburgh District’s reservoirs are designed for flood risk reduction and provide waterflow to navigable waterways, but they are also popular recreational destinations for fishing, water sports and enjoying the outdoors.
