    U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Julian Benjamin, left, and Staff Sgt. Samuel McPheron, 100th Security Forces Squadron military working dog handlers, praise MWD Juan as he rests after performing a bite during water confidence training in a pool at RAF Mildenhall, England, Nov. 12, 2025. This was the first time this type of training has been conducted at RAF Mildenhall and the tri-base area, and the goal is to build confidence in the working dogs, so they are able to conduct operational tasks while in the water. The training strengthens the overall readiness and force projection capability through building MWDs’ confidence in the water, and bolsters the 100th Air Refueling Wing’s ability to forward-deploy in austere environments.
