Headline: U.S. Army Year In Photos 2018

Caption: PICTURE SHOWS: Troopers fire the main gun round at a target during unit gunnery, March 29, at Fort Stewart, Ga. This gunnery marked the first time 2nd Armored Brigade Combat Team, 3rd Infantry Division, troopers fired their newly received M1A1-SA Abrams Tanks since the brigade converted from a light to an armored brigade combat team. .... STORY COPY: This jaw-dropping gallery shows some of the highlights of the U.S. military's year in pictures. The American armed forces official 2018 Year In Photos showcases the wide range of training, equipment and locations where manoeuvres are carried out. Cover Images have selected the very best of the visuals. They include soldiers conducting 'fire phobia training' in Kosovo, by being engulfed in flame, trooped jumping out of an Air Force C-17 Globemaster III airplane over Alaska, and even the queasy sight of a southern black racer snake slithering across the rifle barrel held by a junior Army National Guard sniper as he practices woodland stalking in Florida.
