Students, including Airmen and Soldiers, who are participating in the Fort McCoy Cold-Weather Operations Course (CWOC) class 22-05 practice building an Arctic 10-person tent March 7, 2022, during course training at Fort McCoy, Wis. CWOC students are trained on a variety of cold-weather subjects, including snowshoe training and skiing as well as how to use ahkio sleds and other gear, too. Training also focuses on terrain and weather analysis, risk management, cold-weather clothing, developing winter fighting positions in the field, camouflage and concealment, and numerous other areas that are important to know in order to survive and operate in a cold-weather environment. Thirty-five students were a part of CWOC class 22-05. (U.S. Army Photo by Scott T. Sturkol, Fort McCoy Public Affairs Office)
