Members of NOREX 43's White Platoon and the Staff/Leadership team were taken out to a nearby freshwater lake to conduct water survival techniques in a canoe. Even with a 62 degree air temperature and sunny skies, the frigid water temperature provided a very real experience in a "what if" scenario for the Minnesota National Guardsmen. Other activities included making a Norwegian Troll, boatmanship in a canoe, a Survival race competition and an opportunity to take a very brisk field-bath. Later that night back in camp, traditional Norwegian games brought out the "Viking" competitiveness in the Minnesota service members. (Minnesota National Guard photos by: Tech. Sgt. Paul Santikko)
