Spain's Crown Prince Felipe de Borbon speaks with a Spanish soldier on the capability of a robot which disposes of improvised explosive devices during his visit to the San Gregorio training area to meet with the international participants of INTERDICT 12, Oct. 30. Lt. Col. Tom Austin (far right), commander 54th Engineer Battalion, and a native of Shelby, Mich., and COL Scott Peterson (center), commander 18th Engineer Brigade, and a native of Marinette, Wis., also discuss the US Army engineer capability with Spanish soldiers. The Prince was given a demonstration of Spanish and U.S. Engineer capabilities during a live exercise demonstration. The exercise, hosted by the Spanish engineers, is to foster and enhance the interoperability among engineer units towards counter improvised explosive device operations. The intent is to focus on the roles that military engineers can perform to defeat the enemy's IED system using a scenario as similar to Afghanistan as possible.
