Soldiers from the Army’s 249th Engineer Battalion conducted a training on September 20, 2019 at Otis Air National Guard Base, Mass. The purpose of the event was to bring soldiers from Bravo, Charlie and Delta Companies together to build unit cohesion in preparation for the annual International Lineman’s Rodeo to be held next month in Kansas City, Kansas. The Soldiers practiced their skills for the upcoming competition, climbing utility poles for time, and rescuing simulated injured personnel from the top of the lines.
The 249th Engineer Battalion Delta Company from Cranston, RI is the only Reserve unit in the Army specializing in high voltage utility power lines.
