    A group of military personnel in camouflage uniforms are setting up a large camouflage-patterned tent in a wooded area with light snow on the ground. The scene appears to be a field training exercise conducted in cold, overcast winter conditions. Multiple soldiers are working cooperatively to erect or adjust the tent structure.

    Fort McCoy Cold-Weather Operations Course (CWOC) Class 22-01 students, who are all Marines connected with units of the 2nd Marine Expeditionary Force, set up an Arctic 10-person tent Dec. 15, 2021, at a South Post training area at Fort McCoy, Wis. CWOC students are trained on a variety of cold-weather subjects, including snowshoe training and skiing as well as how to use ahkio sleds and other gear. Training also focuses on terrain and weather analysis, risk management, cold-weather clothing, developing winter fighting positions in the field, camouflage and concealment, and numerous other areas that are important to know in order to survive and operate in a cold-weather environment. The training is coordinated through the Directorate of Plans, Training, Mobilization and Security at Fort McCoy. (U.S. Army Photo by Scott T. Sturkol, Public Affairs Office, Fort McCoy, Wis.)
