    A soldier from the 871st Troop Command performs Basic Combative drills with 1st Sgt. Johnny Brown, Pre-mobilization Training Assistance Element combative instructor, as Staff Sgt. Benjamin Sliger, Pre-mobilization Training Assistance Element combative instructor, instructs them throughout a five-day Basic Combative Course during an annual training exercise here. “Stay open minded,” advised Sliger. “Don’t be afraid. We’re not in the business of hurting soldiers. Our goal here is to train you for combat. Just come in here with an open mind, well take care of you as long as you listen and follow the directions given. You’ll leave here a better, more confidant soldier.” (Photo by Pfc. Haley E. Haile)
