    Spc. Chara Turner, a logistic specialist with the 871st Support Battalion, preforms a clinch drill test with 1st Sgt. Marcus Evans, Pre-mobilization Training Assistance Element combative instructor, during a Basic Combative Course at an annual training exercise here. “Without the proper techniques, you can be the weakest link,” emphasizes Turner. “You are taught to the Army standard, so when it happens in the civilian world you are able to render them useless, not just throwing punches. You learn the different techniques to be able to avoid actually getting hit.” (Photo by Pfc. Haley E. Haile)
