U.S. Air Force civil engineers in a Silver Flag exercise at Tyndall Air Force Base, Fla., work in the unit control center to establish an operational bare-base in a contingency environment Aug. 14, 2014. Fifty-one members from the 184th Civil Engineer Squadron participated in Silver Flag’s seven-day training exercise Aug. 9 through 15. Silver Flag is a six-day contingency scenario that gives participants five days of training, then their knowledge is tested during a one-day mock deployment scenario to a forward operating base where they open an airfield with surrounding insurgent dangers. Airmen used a variety of combat and survival skills during the 17-hour exercise through different scenarios such as, an in-flight emergency landing, fire suppression, insurgent attacks and equipment malfunctions.
