XL defenders tryout for San Antonio Basic SWAT course

Senior Airman Gabriel Baumgartner, 47th Security Forces patrolman, fired at a target at Laughlin Air Force Base, Texas, Sept. 25, 2019, during tryouts for the San Antonio Basic Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) course. Senior Master Sgt. Dwight Valeros, 47th Security Forces Squadron manager, relayed he didn’t intend for the competition to simply confirm who was the most fit or the best marksman but for iron to sharpen iron. When they all begin succeeding as a team, the trail will be blazed for the rest of the squadron and wing to follow in their footsteps. (U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Airman Anne McCready)
