The Army Reserve Soldiers of the 375th Chemical Company have an important responsibility: monitor battlefields and detect chemical or biological threats. During this Field Training Exercise (FTX), every individual builds on his or her previous experience by learning how to operate new field equipment, the Biological Integrated Detection System (BIDS).

All of the 375th Chemical Company's training comes down to this—the FTX. See Private First Class Bradley Stone and his fellow Army Reserve Soldiers apply everything they've learned to a real-world situation.

The Soldiers of the 375th Chemical Company learn to operate new equipment and, in the process, put their other Soldiering skills to the test. Watch Specialist Chris Oberloh and her team set up the BIDS equipment and perform under stress.

These Army Reserve Soldiers come away from the FTX with more than just new equipment skills; they've earned the pride that comes from a job well done. Each Soldier played a major role in the team's success.
