    Army Spc. Kevin Pemberton, a member of the Joint Readiness Training Center's 1st Battalion, 509th Infantry "Geronimo" Regiment, arrives at a May 20 training scenario wearing a suicide vest rigged with five bricks of C4 explosives beneath his Afghan robe. As a member of the center's opposing force, Pemberton and his fellow soldiers at Fort Polk, La., replicate the insurgent tactics deploying troops will encounter in Afghanistan.
