M2 Bradley Fighting Vehicles assigned to 1st Brigade Combat Team, 1st Cavalry Division, Fort Hood, Texas, maneuver across the desert as part of a defensive operation during Decisive Action Rotation 16-01 at the National Training Center, Fort Irwin, Calif., Oct. 14, 2015. The decisive action rotation challenges 1st BCT, 1st Cav., in scenarios within a contemporary operating environment force. The COEFOR replicates a near-peer conventional force, host nation security forces, guerilla forces, insurgent forces, and a criminal element to replicate the complexities of the modern battlefield for a tough, realistic training environment and valuable leadership development opportunities.
