Public Affairs Marines at Fort McCoy for the 2nd Marine Air Wing’s Ullr Shield exercise covered cold-water immersion training at Big Sandy Lake on South Post on Jan. 17, 2018, at Fort McCoy, Wis.
The public affairs service members spent weeks at the installation covering many training events for the exercise.
Ullr Shield is a training exercise designed to improve 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing’s capabilities in extreme cold-weather environments.
The 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing is headquartered at Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point, N.C.

Fort McCoy has supported America’s armed forces since 1909. The post’s varied terrain, state-of-the-art ranges, new as well as renovated facilities, and extensive support infrastructure combine to provide military personnel with an environment in which to develop and sustain the skills necessary for mission success.
