Slouched into the driver seat of a dam-aged pick-up truck, an insurgent guer-rilla fighter notionally takes his last breath after a barrage of gunfire, In front of the embassy at the city of Razish.

This was the fourth attempt in 24 hours to rattle the Soldiers of Devil Coy, 5th Battalion of the Singapore Army Infantry Regiment during their crucible joint readi-ness training exercise at the National Training Center along with their U.S. partners, the 1st Stryker Brigade Combat Team, 25th Infantry Regiment.

The insurgent was a member of a guerrilla force that had taken refuge in Razish, one of the largest cities with well

over 500 buildings in the 1,200 Sq. miles of austere training area. The group had made the city an epicenter for conducting their operations and Capt. Ng Eng Ping, Commander of Devil Coy, was given or-ders to occupy the city.

“My company along with C Co., 1st Stryker Brigade Combat Team were able to secure Razish with little to no re-sistance, in other words we caught the enemy by surprise,” said Ping. “We oc-cupied the embassy, library and mansion because it gave us the best military ad-vantage point possible to provide security to the people.”
