Members of a Dominican Republic Special Operations team stack up just outside the entrance of a shoot-house at Fort Tolamaida, Colombia, as part of a rescue scenario in the second-to-final event of Fuerzas Comando 2014, July 29. Each of the 17 teams from nations throughout the Western Hemisphere entered the enclosed training area to demonstrate their adeptness at clearing rooms and engaging threats at close proximity without hurting non-combatants in the same close quarters. The Fuerzas Comando competition was first established in 2004, and continues to build the required capacity to confront common threats that cannot be defeated by traditional military means alone.
