Guard soldiers return home to Idaho communities

More than 1,800 116th Cavalry Brigade Combat Team soldiers from 137 Idaho communities have returned home after nearly a month-long rotation at the U.S. Army’s National Training Center at Fort Irwin, California. The large-scale exercise was the brigade’s final training requirement in its four-year training cycle before it is available to complete a real-world mission in 2020.
