Minuteman Shields used during Active Shooter Exercise at Fort Lee, VA

Members of the Fort Lee Police Department Quick Reaction Force (QRF) and the 217th Military Police Detachment (Fort Lee, VA) relied on the protection of their Minuteman 3 Folding Ballistic Shields during an active shooter training exercise earlier this year. With the growing concern of active shooter events happening across the nation at random locations (schools, military installations, workplaces, etc.), soldiers and civilians at Fort Lee have become more familiar with the response plan if such an incident were to happen there.
