Special tactics unit teaches skills to special operations Airmen
by Staff Sgt. Matthew Bates Defense Media Activity-San Antonio
/11/2009 - HURLBURT FIELD, Fla. (AFNS) -- Spending hours in a pool in the warm Florida sun may sound like a vacation, but for trainees at the Air Force Special Operations Training Center's Special Tactics Training Squadron here, it's anything but. For these trainees, each of whom is a three-level combat controller, spending hours in a pool is all part of the training to earn their five level certification. The STTS teaches these trainees advanced skills they will need before being assigned to their first operational units.
