Desert Defender continues to evolve 10 years on
Security forces members learn how to interaction with "local nationals" during entry control point training at Fort Bliss, Texas, recently. ECP training is just one part of the Air Force Security Forces Center Desert Defender Ground Combat Readiness Training Center's basic security course at the Texas installation. The course is typically taken just prior to a security forces member's deployment to a forward location. (U.S. Air Force photo by Debbie Aragon)
