Sgt. Pete Carrasco of Colorado Springs, Colo., maintains protection behind a barrier from a vehicle that just came on to the forward operating base during Entry Control Point training at Fort Hood, Texas, May 8. Carrasco ensures that he is able to maintain his sector of fire to keep both himself and his peers safe from any threatening acts from the personnel in the vehicle. Until the personnel and vehicles are completely and properly searched, all Soldiers maintain their highest alert level for any indicators of an unsafe act. "This realistic ECP training enhanced my confidence and abilities to perform my assigned duties," Carrasco said. The 3rd Battalion, 157th Field Artillery, Colorado Army National Guard is scheduled to deploy with the 115th Fires Brigade in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom.
