CSTX 86-18-02 operations at Fort McCoy

Troops at Fort McCoy, Wis., for participation in the 86th Training Division’s Combat Support Training Exercise 86-18-02 drove military vehicles in a convoy Aug. 14, 2018, on South Post at the installation.

The 86th is holding the exercise as part of the U.S. Army Reserve commanding general’s Combat Support Training Program.

Thousands of service members with the Army as well as other military services and foreign militaries are participating in the multinational exercise, including Canadian armed-forces members.

CSTX 86-18-02 is the second of two CSTXs by the 86th taking place at Fort McCoy this year.

Fort McCoy has supported America’s armed forces since 1909. The installation’s motto is to be the “Total Force Training Center.” The post’s varied terrain, state-of-the-art ranges, new as well as renovated facilities, and extensive support infrastructure combine to provide military personnel with an environment in which to develop and sustain the skills necessary for mission success.
