Soldiers and Airmen of the Maryland National Guard's 32nd Weapons of Mass Destruction-Civil Support Team train aboard the USS Barry March 6 at the Washington Naval Yard during Exercise Capital Spear. Capital Spear included WMD-CSTs from Washington, Delaware, Maryland, Michigan, Virginia, West Virginia, and Indiana. The three-day exercise began March 4 with a multi-state response to simulated synchronized terrorist attacks around the nation's capital and northwest of Indianapolis. Officials said the purpose was to enhance the interoperability of the teams, which investigate sites for chemical, biological and radiological agents and advise civilian responders.

Air Guard pilots, maintainers make history in Iraq

A 438th Air Expeditionary Group weapons loading team prepares to mount a Joint Direct Attack Munition to an A-10C Thunderbolt II using an MJ-1 “jammer” vehicle here. The Airmen made history in Iraq when their upgraded A-10s successfully employed JDAMs in combat. Because the weapon is guided to targets by pinpoint GPS coordinates, experts here say it is 100 percent more accurate than munitions previously employed on the A-10C Thunderbolt II, dramatically improving precision and reducing fratricide. The Airmen are deployed from the 175th Wing, Maryland Air National Guard, located in Baltimore, Md. (U.S. Air Force photo/Tech. Sgt. D. Clare)
