A source I consider reputable sent me an email a few days ago, but for which I do not have a link:

Russian paratroopers will meet up with American forces May 24-31 for military exercise at Colorado’s Fort Carson.

· The purpose of the joint training is to practice airborne tactics and anti-terror operations, such as dropping into a hostile area and conducting a “terrorist camp raid.”

· They will use US weaponry and equipment.

· This comes at a time when Russia has troops working in cooperation with China where a joint naval drill in the Yellow Sea is currently underway.

· With 25 vessels and 13 aircraft, it is reportedly one of the largest Russian-China drills in recent history.

Just did a google:
Here is a link from a not-so-great source:
