U.S. Airmen Train on AN/TRC-214 Radio Shelter in Michigan for June 1 Combat Exercise

June 1 field training at Alpena Combat Readiness Training Center had U.S. Air Force airmen wiring roof-mounted antennas for an AN/TRC-214 ground-to-air command radio shelter.
Senior Airman Jacob Quintero and Airman 1st Class Mason Turner, both radio frequency transmission systems technicians, carried out the setup work during the exercise.
The drill was designed to prepare airmen for Agile Combat Employment, an Air Force war-fighting concept that shifts operations toward decentralized command and control for distributed missions.
Alpena’s exercise reflects the service’s broader push to rehearse communications and command systems needed to operate from dispersed locations.
