    A group of military personnel in winter camouflage uniforms are conducting cold-weather training exercises on a snow-covered field. The soldiers appear to be skiing or pulling equipment using ropes across a snowy terrain. The scene is set against a backdrop of coniferous trees and utility poles under a partly cloudy sky.

    Students in Cold-Weather Operations Course class 21-04 complete field training pulling ahkio sleds of equipment on snowshoes Feb. 18, 2021, at a training area at Fort McCoy, Wis. Students complete many miles of ruck marching in the snow and cold during the course. Sometimes students move in snowshoes and skis covering dozens of miles. Students also complete training terrain and weather analysis, camouflage and concealment, and risk management. They also learn about properly wearing issued cold-weather clothing and how to prevent cold-weather injuries. The training is coordinated by the Fort McCoy Directorate of Plans, Training, Mobilization and Security. (U.S. Army Video by Scott T. Sturkol, Public Affairs Office, Fort McCoy, Wis.)
