News in Brief: Georgia, War Training At Benning. Visiting officers from Central America and other nations receive realistic infantry training from (laid-back looking) U.S. instructors. Machine gun firing, bazooka firing and spectacular staged infantry attacks. Patches on various uniforms read "El Salvador" and "Guatemala." Latin American military, soldiers.
