Going live: Realistic training takes the fight to the enemy

After executing the village police chief, two “cabos” with the Helotian League drug cartel prepare to dismember the villager’s body. Staff Sgt. Daniel Rivera, left, regales his fearlessness in shooting the chief while Sgt. Joseph Parra begins to cut Spc. Aaron Villanueva in the bathtub. National Guard Soldiers with the 71st Battlefield Surveillance Battalion took on the roles of members of a drug cartel or villagers in a notional scenario during their two-week annual training at Joint Base San Antonio-Camp Bullis in June.
