    The image shows a close-up of two individuals, one wearing U.S. Army ACU (Army Combat Uniform) camouflage and the other wearing an Under Armour athletic shirt with partial text reading 'PROTECT THIS HOUSE' and a U.S. Army logo. The person in civilian athletic wear has their hands restrained behind their back with metal handcuffs. This appears to depict a law enforcement or military police detainment training scenario.

    The hands of a detainee are shackled with hand-irons while entering an entry control point in a mock detention facility during Combat Support Training Exercise 86-17-02 at Fort McCoy, Wisconsin, from August 5 – 25, 2017. Thousands of Army Reserve Soldiers joined service members from different service branches to train in a large-scale exercise focused on multi-echelon and multi-functional, realistic, tactical training to challenge and improve the proficiency of leader and collective tasks. One of the key focuses of the CSTX was to return to, and understand basic Soldier skills. The exercise moved Soldiers away from the sustainment lifestyle in forward operating bases, and Soldiers worked and lived in a more austere environment. Command Sgt. Maj. Ted Copeland, Command Sergeant Major, U.S. Army Reserve explained that moving Soldiers out of FOBs will develop them to become more mobile and agile and that it is necessary for survivability.
