The 502nd Multi Role Bridge Company lived up to its name last week with an assault river crossing exercise that included a zodiac assault mission, air assault sling loads and construction of a seven-float improved ribbon bridge raft, at Fort Knox, Ky. Here, the assault crew was transported from the secured portion of the exercise to the "far shore" where the "enemy" waited. Both shores must be secured against hostile fire before the bridge building can begin.
