Pennsylvania Guard Runs Drone Education Course 

Fort Indiantown Gap, Pennsylvania ran a 10-day unmanned aircraft system course to educate soldiers on drone operation, a National Guard report covered. The course took soldiers through realistic combat scenarios to develop skills in case the need arises. 

“One of my main goals here is to make it as realistic as we can,” course manager Sgt. 1st Class Brandon Wahl said. “So, it’s important for everyone to know how to operate one, because at any point you could be tasked with operating it.”
