Training with Eglin Defenders
A team of 96th Security Forces Squadron Airmen prepare for a side-advancing movement during a shoot, move and communicate drill in June at Eglin Air Force Base, Fla. The mandatory training requirement is in addition to annual weapons qualification training. The exercise consists of Airmen firing simmunition ammo while advancing toward, away from and to the side of a target. This is followed by a building sweep and clear drill. The Defenders perform the highly kinetic training at Eglin’s Base Tango range. The range was previously used for security forces pre-deployment training. (U.S. Air Force photo/Samuel King Jr.)
