Airman grapple in Clash of the Dragons

U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Anthony Ryan, 81st Security Forces Squadron combat arms training and maintenance trainer, participates in the Clash of the Dragons at Keesler Air Force Base, Mississippi, Dec. 12, 2025. The technical skill, mental toughness and controlled aggression displayed during a grappling tournament such as this event directly translate to increase lethality and mission readiness.
