Staff Sgt. Michael Gustin, a transportation specialist with the 1067th Composite Truck Company, 228th Transportation Battalion, 213th Regional Support Group, Pennsylvania National Guard, tries to calm a civilian actor posing as a protester near his encampment at the National Training Center, Fort Irwin, California, Aug. 15. “In logistics, you interact a lot with the civilian population,” said Gustin. “You have to give them a good impression.” Civilian role players augmented the training rotation by creating a riot to test the response of the Soldiers involved.
