1207th USAH 2016 Innovative Readiness Training in South Dakota
LOWER BRULE RESERVATION – Sgt. John Woods, a dental assistant from the Army Reserve’s 7233rd Medical Support Unit in Birmingham, Ala., gives a piggy-back ride to a local child from the Lower Brule Indian Reservation located 61 miles south of Pierre, S.D. July 19, 2016. Innovative Readiness Training brought Woods to the area where his unit is assisting the local health clinic with various medical services. He, along with three other Soldiers made a special trip to the Lower Brule Boys and Girls Club to teach children about proper dental hygiene. IRT allows soldiers to sharpen their Army skills by using them in real-world situations. (U.S. Army Reserve photo by Spc. David Alexander)
