    A group of six military personnel posing together in a desert environment, likely a training or field exercise location. Most are wearing red berets with insignia, while one wears a maroon/burgundy paratrooper beret and another wears a dark beret. The setting appears to be a arid, desert landscape with mountains visible in the background.

    Then-Lt. James Corcoran (right) arrived at U.S. Army Yuma Proving Ground (YPG) in May 1982, where he served as part of the post's Airborne Test Force. He left active duty after his tour in Yuma was through, moving to the National Guard for two years and then the Army Reserve for 18 more. Now a retired Lt. Col., Corcoran has fond memories of this time at YPG. “It was a fantastic opportunity, and they were a great group of people. It was a great life and a great place to be.”
