JACKSON, Miss.- The 155th Armored Brigade Combat Team (ABCT), Mississippi Army National Guard, will participate in a National Training Center combat training exercise at Fort Irwin, California from May 18-June 15.
The NTC rotation will showcase 155th ABCT and supporting unit partnerships, demonstrating the U.S. Army's Total Force Policy. The plan requires one total force, the active Army, Army National Guard, and U.S. Army Reserve to provide operating and generating forces in support of the National Military
Strategy and Army commitments worldwide. Collectively, approximately 5,500
Army and Air Force personnel will participate in the joint exercise. This figure also includes Soldiers from Laurel's 184th Sustainment Command and personnel from approximately 10 other Mississippi Army and Air National Guard units.
An NTC rotation replicates the tough, realistic operational environment that America's war fighters face in combat; the training is relevant and quickly adaptable to emerging threats and technologies in the current operational environments and for tomorrow's challenges. The training is reflective of the complexities of potential adversaries our nation could face and include: guerrilla, insurgent, criminal and near-peer conventional forces woven into one dynamic environment.
