ABU Monsters continue to balance readiness and lethality focused training to ensure every Soldier is ready for the next fight. The company continues to excel by supporting the development and implementation of future technology that will help Soldiers dominate the battlefield. ABU Monsters arrived in Fort Huachuca, AZ to test the Dismounted Assured Positioning, Navigation, and Timing System (DAPS). Through this effort, ABU Monsters are directly contributing to refinement and eventual implementation of a navigation system that will help the Army operate in a GPS denied environment and ultimately save lives. In addition to the DAPS, ABU Monsters have received in depth training from subject matter experts on the AN/PRC-163 radio and ATAK system. This unique opportunity will help ensure that leaders are well versed on the functionality and troubleshooting techniques of the radio enabling a seamless transition. While leaders have been engaged in training, ABU Monsters continue to hone their craft and prepare for upcoming EIB testing via classes on medical tasks and communication systems. This training ensures readiness and reinforces basic Soldier tasks that could make a difference on the battlefield. Additionally, it serves as medium for leaders to empower their subordinates and promote peer-to-peer teaching.
