osovo Forces must be prepared to react to any threat to a safe and secure Kosovo at a moment’s notice. To ensure Multinational Battle Group-East is ready to respond to a potential threat anywhere in Kosovo, soldiers from the Forward Command Post conducted air-mobile crowd and riot control training at Camp Novo Selo July 22. U.S. Army Sgt. 1st Class Eugenio Mendoza, a native of Fort Washington, Md. and the 1st Squadron, 38th Cavalry Regiment Operations Sgt. Maj., helped to oversee the training as soldiers from the French coy went through the training lanes. “The reason we are doing this is trying to get [everyone] used to riding the helicopters and maneuvering them into an area that has an ongoing riot,” Mendoza said. “Also, we’re trying to alleviate time from riding in vehicles. Helicopters are faster, so we’re getting [soldiers] used to that.”
