Virginia Army National Guard Soldiers of the Bedford-based Company A, 1st Battalion, 116th Infantry Regiment, 116th Infantry Brigade Combat Team conduct a platoon attack live-fire exercise June 19, 2014, on the Infantry Platoon Battle Course at Fort Pickett, Va. The live-fire exercise is part of the 10-day eXportable Combat Training Capability rotation designed to train and validate platoons on tasks that support offensive and defensive operations under daylight and hours of limited visibility. Units will concentrate on training selected mission essential tasks in a realistic field environment to refocus junior leaders on tactical field craft. The Army National Guard’s XCTC program provides an experience similar to a Combat Training Center to Guard Soldiers at a home station training center, minimizing cost and time away from home and jobs. XCTC is an instrumented field training exercise designed to certify unit proficiency in coordination with First Army. (U.S. Army National Guard photo by Staff Sgt. Terra C. Gatti/Released)
