G7 Exercise at USAG Ansbach Training Area
OBERDACHSTETTEN, Germany (May 20, 2022)– In a large exercise with almost 400 participants, the Unterstützungskommando (USK) of the Middle Franconian police force, and police units from all of Northern Bavaria, conducted training May 17 at the U.S. Army Garrison (USAG) Ansbach’s Oberdachstetten Training Area.
The USK forces are Bavarian police units that operate in high-risk and potentially violent environments such as protests at major soccer games and raids such as storming of buildings to search and arrest dangerous and possibly armed suspects. The USKs are also trained as first responders, and some are trained medics, which means inherent medical capability within the unit.
