Operation Nanook 2011 was a military training exercise held in Canada's Arctic in August 2011.[1][2] It was the fifth such annual exercise. Vessels from the United States Navy, United States Coast Guard and the Royal Danish Navy participated in the exercise.
Two scenarios in the exercise had military and civilian personnel simulate reacting to air and maritime emergencies.[3] While the exercise was being conducted, a commercial airplane (First Air Flight 6560) crashed while approaching Resolute Bay Airport, and the military personnel involved in the exercise assisted in rescue and recovery operations.[4]
