IDLC: High caliber Defenders in 2023

Master Sgt. Keith Carter, a member of the 433rd Security Forces Squadron, Lackland Air Force Base, Texas, engages an attacking force with dye-marker rounds from the cover of a smoke screen during an area security operations exercise, May 19, 2023, at Camp James A. Garfield Joint Military Training Center, Ohio. Carter and his fellow 433rd Defenders were Integrated Defense Leadership Course students posing as members of an opposing force, gaining valuable skills while providing realistic threats for other IDLC students to face. The Integrated Defense Leadership Course, which is based at Youngstown Air Reserve Station, Ohio, and uses training grounds at CJAG, was designed to provide Air Force Security Forces members with intensely focused hands-on training to achieve and maintain combat readiness.
