Brave Defender
Staff Sgt. Doug Crisp, of the 94th Security Forces Squadron, peaks around the side of his HMMWV during an enemy assault on an entry control point at the three-day Brave Defender field training exercise May 19 at Eglin Air Force Base, Fla. The exercise is the culmination of Air Force Materiel Command’s six-week security forces deployment training, administered by the 96th Ground Combat Training Squadron. GCTS instructors teach 10 training classes a year, which consists of improvised explosive device detection and reaction, operating in an urban environment, mission planning, land navigation and casualty care and more. More than 140 active-duty and National Guard Airmen attended this training. (U.S. Air Force photo/Samuel King Jr.)
