    Airmen jump in icy Fort McCoy lake for January cold-water immersion training

    An Air National Guard security forces Airman who was one of 50 students in an Air Force led-Cold Weather Operations Course participates in cold-water immersion training Jan. 27, 2023, at Big Sandy Lake on South Post at Fort McCoy, Wis. The activity was part of the 16 days of training for 50 Airmen from multiple Air National Guard security forces units. Besides cold-water immersion, the Airmen also learned about cold-weather shelters, survival techniques, cold-weather uniform wear, and more in the training. Fort McCoy has a long history of supporting cold-weather training. Eighty years prior to this training, in January 1943, the installation hosted winter training for the Army's 76th Division prior to the Division deploying to Europe to fight in the Battle of the Bulge in World War II.
