by 1st Lt. Kenneth Chaplin 551st Military Police Company

The 551st Military Police Company, 716th Military Police Battalion, continues its inten- sive training for war. The Soldiers used last week to sharpen skills in small unit tactics and strengthen the bonds Soldiers need to prepare for combat. The training focus for the week was to keep Soldiers working together through multiple long days of physically and mentally strenu- ous training. The week started with intense training on how to enter and clear a building. The teams began training in rooms drawn on the ground with duct tape and spray paint allowing every detail to be critiqued. “I felt confident in my team from the start,”
