Training For Combat

TRAINING FOR COMBAT

Military-style combat goes on several times a week in a warehouse in this Davis County suburb. One day soldiers might be mounting an assault on bad guys in a fortified position. On another day, police SWAT teams might be executing a search warrant in a dangerous neighborhood.

Combat Training

With the advent of virtual reality systems, I suspect this type of training is becoming less and less prevalent. But, with tight budgets, there is nothing wrong with turning an old warehouse, or a deserted area into a training facility. That is how it was done in the olden days, and it was effective. In fact, there may be some merit in this kind of training, as it putting soldiers in real situations, and real environments, and that is what they will be facing once they are on the battlefield.
