Soldiers with 4th Battalion, 31st Infantry Regiment, 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 10th Mountain Division (LI), execute a joint forcible entry operation engaging in a simulated force-on force scenario for Mountain Peak 25-01 on Fort Drum, New York, May 10, 2025. Joint forcible entry operations are fast-paced air and ground assaults designed to rapidly insert forces into critical areas to seize and hold key terrain. The scenario provides 2nd BCT Soldiers with realistic, home-station training in large-scale combat operations as they prepare for an upcoming rotation to the Joint Readiness Training Center at Fort Johnson, Louisiana, later this summer.
