A colored smoke grenade sends yellow smoke into the air as a U.S. Soldier gets ready to fire his weapon at South African soldiers playing insurgents in a complex enemy attack during the Shared Accord exercise at the South African Army Combat Training Center in Lohatla July 27, 2017. The attack, which also had explosives, provided realistic training to Army truck drivers assigned to 101st Airborne Division's 2nd Battalion, 327th Infantry Regiment. The two-week exercise is slated to end Aug. 3, 2017.
