Soldiers from Company B, 1st Battalion, 6th Infantry Regiment, 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 1st Armored Division of the Brigade Modernization Command participate in the U.S. Army Asymmetric Warfare Group’s Subterranean Risk Reduction Exercise here and at the Center for National Response in Gallagher, W.Va., Sept. 3-14. During the exercise, the BMC soldiers were placed in various scenarios that required them to use current or develop complementary tactic, techniques and procedures while operating on surface, underground and confined spaces, areas of limited visibility, breaching obstacles, close quarter drills and how to best use various Army organizations and assets as enablers for a mission set. The AWG conducted the exercise in order to prepare the BMC soldiers for their upcoming participation in a subterranean assessment at the Network Integration Evaluation 14.1 scheduled for November. AWG’s end state for the Risk Reduction Exercise and its upcoming participation in NIE 14.1 is to develop technique solutions to capability gaps with respect to subterranean operations and to develop an Army Techniques Publication on subterranean warfare for the force.
