Soldiers from the 41st Infantry Brigade Combat Team conduct urban operations training in a live fire shoothouse at Range 24, Yakima Training Center, Washington, April 6, 2025.

The footage captures multiple infantry squads deploying under the 2-162 Infantry Battalion (Volunteers Battalion) guidon as they execute tactical room clearing procedures with live ammunition during Operation Djibouti Dawn Annual Training. The video includes both overhead catwalk perspectives and first-person action camera footage from participating squad members, concluding with the training cadre's demonstration "Hero Run."

This critical training prepares soldiers for the unit's upcoming deployment to the Horn of Africa, where they may encounter complex urban terrain requiring these specialized close-quarters battle skills. The shoothouse environment provides realistic scenario-based training that tests and reinforces the unit's standard operating procedures for building clearance operations.

About Moody Bridge Chat

Bridge Chat's purpose is to create cohesive, high-performing teams that foster trust and connection through flexible and consistent small group discussions; in direct response to overwhelming feedback from the CSAF 21's Resilience Tactical Pause.

Caring for our Wingmen is what defines us as Airmen, so we must work to get to know our teammates and the challenges they face. We all have the same responsibility of creating the workplace we want and supporting the people we share our lives with.

Bridge Chat topics are posted here monthly to encourage small group discussions within teams. Beginning the process of recurring discussions can be difficult, but will become easier with time and reinforce the Flying Tiger culture.

To help us initiate and facilitate these discussions, we have included a guide that defines roles and ground rules.

The Flying Tiger Bridge Chat Facilitator provides facilitator trainings for base personnel. Their goal is to create squadron facilitators who take action on ACC's goal of equipping, engaging and empowering Airmen with resilience tools and create high-performing teams who look out for each other. To schedule training, contact 229-257-3211.
