    Spc. Tyler Mckinney (Right) and Spc. Oscar Valle (Left) of the Headquarters and Headquarters Company, 158th Infantry Battalion, Arizona National Guard fire a 60mm mortar in support of exercise Northern Strike 17 Camp Grayling, Michigan August 2, 2017. The 60mm mortar is used for indirect fire in support of the infantry to suppress, delay, or pin down enemy infantry units. Northern Strike 17 is a National Guard Bureau-sponsored exercise uniting approximately 5,000 service members from 13 states and five coalition countries during the first two weeks of August 2017 at Camp Grayling Joint Maneuver Training Center and the Alpena Combat Readiness Training Center, both located in northern Michigan and operated by the Michigan National Guard. The newly accredited NS 17 demonstrates the Michigan National Guard's ability to provide accessible, readiness-building opportunities for military units from all service branches to achieve and sustain proficiency in conducting mission command, air, sea, and ground maneuver integration, together with the synchronization of fires in a joint, multinational, decisive action environment.
