    Soldiers from Bravo Company 1-163rd Combined Arms Battalion conducted a company assault as part of military operations in urban terrain (MOUT) this drill weekend at Fort Harrison. The exercise is designed to build tactical unit cohesion, develop battlefield leadership skills at all levels, and sharpen the edge of our Montana Army National Guard Soldiers for future missions.

    The exercise began with Bravo Company being air assaulted to a landing Zone (LZ) by CH-47 helicopters from the 1-189th General Support Aviation Battalion based out of Helena, Montana. From the LZ, Bravo Company foot marched to the MOUT site where they began their assault. They fired blank and simulated (SIM) rounds while moving towards their objectives as opposing forces (OPFOR) employed SIM rounds as well in an attempt to delay or stop their advance. This sort of direct contact training allows our Guard members, Soldiers and leaders, to react to real time conditions and changes on the battlefield.

    Bravo Company completed all of their mission objectives and neutralized the OPFOR, making their training a complete success. Video credit: Staff Sgt. Christopher A. Hoffert.
