910th Civil Engineers "rough it" during annual bivouac Published Sept. 19, 2006 By Master Sgt. Bryan Ripple 910th Airlift WIng Public Affairs YOUNGSTOWN AIR RESERVE STATION, Ohio -- About 25 reservists from the 910th Civil Engineer Squadron participated in the unit's annual bivouac training exercise during the September UTA. The event provided them with a training opportunity to put up two GP medium tents and a temper tent during camp setup.Some of the other training the unit members received included fire extinguishers, field hygiene, installation of tent heaters, and tent lighting. Although rain came during the late afternoon and through the evening on Saturday, the Airmen did spend the night in their "temporary lodging."Sunday of the UTA offered time to do other requirements such as Task Qualification Training while in various MOPP levels, and other ancillary training requirements. "We've got a lot of young people in the unit now, and they're very energized as you can tell," said Senior Master Sgt. Virgie Douglas, superintendent of the electrical shop, and the person in charge of the bivouac. "I think it went very well and we got a lot out of it," he said, adding "it's just like going camping to me."
