More than 2,500 Soldiers in the 29th Infantry Brigade Combat Team assembled at Camp Roberts’ California to participate in this year’s Exportable Combat Training Capability (XCTC). The 29th IBCT is comprised of soldiers from Hawaii, Guam and Arizona to participate and engage in simulated deployment scenarios.

In the B-Roll Package, you will find Hawaii Army National Guard soldiers leaving Oahu and heading to Camp Roberts, California. You will also see soldiers conducting live fire exercises as that is some of the training they are taking part in during Exportable Combat Training Capability (XCTC). After that, you will find an interview with Command Sergeant Major Bret D. Moore, Brigade Operations Sergeant Major. That interview provides insight into XCTC and it’s purpose for the Army National Guard. The training will last through out the month of June.

XCTC is a portable combat training center rotation that can be moved from any state or location that has the capability to support a brigade size element of 2,000 Soldiers and provide platoon and squad sized evaluations.
