A TACLET South Green Team member steps into the pool during Water Survival Training wearing his first line gear consisting of helmet, gun belt and Advanced Interdiction uniform Aug. 1. Once in the water, the member had to show proficiency in treading water, drown proof and survival strokes. Green Team is the initial indoctrination for new members assigned to TACLET South. The 19 days of training increases the member's physical conditioning and required mission qualifications to deploy on counter narcotics and anti-piracy missions.
