15th OWS Airmen get taste of combat environment

SCOTT AIR FORCE BASE, Ill. -- Forecasters from the 15th Operational Weather Squadron take cover from an insurgent ambush during an exercise Saturday at Scott. Weather forecasters come to the 15th OWS after completing their technical school to get further hands on training that they will use in the field. Because many of the Airmen will be deployed in support of the Army, they go through tactical combat training to better prepare them. (U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Airman Ryan Crane)
