11The JIEDDO battle course project is designed to train Marines to identify and defeat Improvised Explosive Devices. The project consisted of three training sites; extensive roadway improvements, a Range Support Facility; as well as Communication Lines and Fiber Optic Cable connection to Camp Wilson.
he three sites were developed to simulate foreign villages with a two-lane roadway into each site. A total of 86 building sites were graded and the CMU courtyard walls were built to support combat exercises and bodily impacts during training exercises. Additional features included a mock traffic signal, 60 Photovoltaic street lights, a generator, tunnels, and a mock pedestrian overpass.
The 2,691 SF After Action Reporting (AAR) Range Support Facility consists of a large classroom that offered the flexibility and capability to divide into three smaller classrooms for review of filmed training and debriefing; an instructors production room; a communications room; material storage space; an electronic equipment systems control room and LAN room. A concrete patio space creates an outdoor classroom; complete with portable heating and cooling, as well as bleachers protected by an expansive sunshade.
