Pacific Area Legal Teams Train to Deploy

POHAKULOA TRAINING AREA, Hawaii (AFPN) -- Two dozen experts in military law deployed to this island to spend a week sharpening their skills in preparation for upcoming deployments.

During the five-day exercise, each team of two -- one lawyer and one paralegal -- will sit through about 15 hours of classroom lesson-and-discussion sessions and run through 30 role-playing scenarios. Legal officials from Headquarters PACAF will observe and critique the students' responses to the scenarios. The goal is to get the students ready for upcoming deployments.
