TZMD Independence Shadow

ZAZZU

Silent Maneuvers and sudden contact procedures are an essential Mountain Division skill. TZMD members practiced ingress and egress maneuvers in wet, silent, and hot environments.

With trained K9 units, TZMD moved swiftly through the mosquito-infested terrain. Safe movements were combined with a rapid tempo to simulate real-world problems.

“ Clear your Zones and Move on Signal! ”

Teame members utilized training and teamwork skills to plan and execute live-fire drills while adapting to exigent circumstances, maintaining cover and concealment, and executing positive K9 handling techniques. Target scores were achieved and marked for objective completion and advancement to each station. An after-action review was completed and forewarded to participants. Go Teame!
