Sgt. Tim Sapanara, a gunner with Hawaii Army National Guard's Bravo Troop, 1-299 Cavalry, prepares a belt of 50-caliber ammunition to be locked and loaded during the unit's annual training at Pohakuloa Training Area, Hawaii. In addition to providing security, Cavalry units are relied upon to execute reconnaissance missions, meaning they are often the first troops on-site and sometimes the first to engage unexpected enemy forces. Because of the training they receive today, the Cav will be better prepared for the missions that lie ahead during their upcoming 2013 deployment.
