Soldiers at Fort McCoy, Wis., for training in the 86th Training Division's Combat Support Training Exercise 86-18-04 set up a reverse-osmosis water purification unit, or ROWPU, on South Post at Big Sandy Lake on June 7, 2018, at Fort McCoy, Wis. A ROWPU can provides potable water from any water source and can process up to 3,000 gallons an hour. A ROWPU can not only draw water from a lake, but also from rivers, oceans, or even holes in the ice. The system is built on to an Army trailer and includes its own generator and essentially a lab to operate the system from inside a covered enclosure. The system uses a variety of chemicals and membranes to filter and purify the water. Combat Support Training Exercise 86-18-04 is part of the Army Reserve's Combat Support Training Program, or CSTP. CSTP exercises are large-scale, collective-training exercises designed to immerse units into tactical training environments that closely replicate what they might experience in operational deployments. The 86th Training Division is a tenant organization at Fort McCoy. (U.S. Army Photo by Scott T. Sturkol, Public Affairs Office, Fort McCoy, Wis.)
