While demonstrating his ability to imitate improvised explosive devices at Quantico’s Urban Training Center on May 30, 2013, tactical training support specialist Randy Powell shows the fake mortar round that just threw up a cloud of talcum powder next to an imitation IED buried in a fake dead goat. An Explotrain OMG unit hidden across the street had produced the accompanying “boom,” while a Badger AK-47 simulator seemed to bring to life the shooter dummies in nearby windows.
