Approximately 2,000 Arkansas Troops with the 39th Infantry Brigade Combat Team are currently training at the National Training Center in Fort Irwin, Calif. The team arrived on May 9 for the three-week rotation. NTC provides realistic battlefield scenarios, supported by top notch special effects and dozens of civilians on the battlefield to add to the realism. In total, approximately 3,500 Soldiers, Airmen, and Marines from various states are participating in the training under command and control of the 39th. The training was scheduled to help the brigade prepare for a potential deployment to Afghanistan in 2012.
