Sgt. 1st Class Jacob Nelson, a Wichita native with the Kansas National Guard, uncovers the simulated mine on a metal detector lane as part of a humanitarian demining action training course taught by soldiers of the Kansas National Guard and a civilian representative from the U.S. Humanitarian Demining Training Center. Kansas National Guardsmen and the HDTC representative are instructing Armenian peacekeepers and engineer battalions on international demining standards as part of the Humanitarian Mine Action program and will assist the Armenian government in developing a national standard operating procedure for demining.
