    Military or law enforcement personnel are conducting a close-quarters battle (CQB) training exercise inside what appears to be a purpose-built shoot house or tactical training facility. Personnel in camouflage uniforms are positioned on both the ground floor and an elevated second-floor catwalk/mezzanine level. A cardboard silhouette target depicting a masked figure is visible on the ground floor as a training prop.

    U.S. Green Berets assigned to 3rd Special Forces Group (Airborne) brief paratroopers assigned to the 3rd Infantry Brigade Combat Team, 82nd Airborne Division on close-quarter battle drills during a joint Foreign Internal Defense Exercise (FIDEX) at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, Aug. 12, 2026. The execution of a FIDEX enables special operations forces to strengthen their ability to rapidly integrate, synchronize capabilities, and respond to emerging operational requirements with conventional forces while validating SOF core capabilities and building collective readiness. FID is a doctrinal mission of the special operations forces and involves training, advising, and assisting host-nation military forces to protect their country against subversion, lawlessness, or insurgency.
