Ross Pixler, the operations and training officer of the 3rd Battalion, 187th Infantry Regiment, observe and evaluate company commanders during an exercise in May. The blank-fire exercise tested the companies’ abilities to collectively maneuver on and destroy an enemy force in a simulated combat mission.
