U.S. Soldiers, assigned to the regimental Engineer

U.S. Soldiers, assigned to the regimental Engineer Squadron, 2nd Cavalry Regiment, attend the hands-on portion of a Selectable Lightweight Attack Munition (SLAM) class at Tower Barracks, Grafenwoehr, Germany, Aug. 24,2016. SLAM is a multipurpose munition designed to be readilly portable and hand-emplaced against lightly armored infantry vehicles, parked aircraft and petroleum storage sites. It can operate day and night during all weather conditions to defeat selected targets using an Explosively Formed Penetrator warhead. SLAM has four operating modes: bottom-attack, side-attack, timed-demolition and operator-initiated mode. SLAM will self-destruct at the end of a set time selected by the operator during its employment. (U.S. Army photo by Pfc. Javon Spence/Released)
