First Sgt. Angel Vega (second from the left), the non-commissioned officer in charge of the Headquarters and Headquarters Company, 296th Infantry Regiment of the Puerto Rico National Guard, gives praises of his Soldiers to Command Sgt. Maj. Robert J. Stiefvater, Louisiana state command sergeant major, for their performance as part of the advance party during their Annual Training 2015 at Fort Polk, La. The 296th will conduct their AT in coordination with the 256th from May 30 – June 13.According to Lt. Col. Hector Santiago, the 296th commander, one of the reasons for his unit to train in Fort Polk is to be able to use weaponry they cannot use in Puerto Rico due to temporary terrain constraints. Some of the weapons schedule to be used are the .50-caliber Browning machine gun (50-Cal), M120 Mortar System and the BGM-71 Tube-launched Optically-tracked Wire-guided Missile (TOW) among others.
