305 SFS military working dogs

Wearing a “bite suit”, Staff Sgt. Stephen Upton, 305th Security Forces Squadron Military Working Dog Section kennel master and trainer, plays the part of bad guy while Rambo brings him down. The purpose for the bite suit is so the dogs can practice other takedown points like legs and either arm unlike the wrap, a single-arm pad, which only allows the dog to practice on one arm. The 305th SFS Military Working Dog Section conducts random searches at the gates to McGuire AFB and also performs voluntary drug searches for McGuire members on any recently purchased used car.
