Spc. Cody McCoy, a native of Colorado Springs, Colo., a member of the 1st Platoon, 541st Sapper Company, 54th Engineer Battalion, 18th Engineer Brigade, pulls security during a route clearance with Spanish soldiers on the third day of Interdict 12, Oct. 29. The joint exercise is based on several improvised explosive device events in a route clearance scenario. The exercise, hosted by the Spanish engineers, is to foster and enhance the interoperability among engineer units towards counter IED operations. The intent is to focus on the roles that military engineers can perform to defeat the enemy's IED system using a scenario as similar to Afghanistan as possible. (U.S. Army photo by Lt. Col.
