With the ever-evolving landscape of global security, it has become imperative to prepare its troops for such scenarios. Recognizing the gravity of the situation, OMR recently conducted comprehensive training for its 1BN troops to equip them with the necessary knowledge and skills to respond effectively in the event of an exposure. This training not only focused on personal protection but also emphasized the importance of providing assistance to others in need.
During the training, SPC Johnson and Officer Candidate (OC) Reems played pivotal roles in providing guidance to the troops. Both veterans of the Navy, their expertise and experience were invaluable in preparing the troops for potential chemical or biological incidents.
