The Illinois Army National Guard trained alongside their partner nation of Poland June 1–15. A team from Delta Company, 1st Battalion, 178th Infantry Regiment, worked shoulder to shoulder with Poland’s Territorial Defence Forces to train on the FGM-148 Javelin—a shoulder-fired, anti-tank guided missile system—refining anti-armor tactics and fire coordination. The training focused on lethality, precision engagement, and joint maneuver planning through simulated engagements and integrated field exercises. This exchange reflected years of partnership and operational growth through the State Partnership Program. (U.S. Air National Guard video by Master Sgt. Amber Monio)
