Ft. Lewis soldiers model for video game heroes
'America's Army' crew takes notes on Stryker exercise

tryker soldiers in the 1st Brigade, 3rd Infantry Division, run through yellow smoke as they stage a training raid on a mock Iraqi village Friday at Fort Lewis. Members of the Army Game Project development team were on hand to see, smell and feel the action to help their government-sponsored "America's Army" video game be realistic.

David Grabias, a videographer with Sinema Productions in Los Angeles, records sights and sounds of the Stryker brigade training to be used by game designers.

FORT LEWIS -- The Stryker brigade, fresh off its global introduction as the Army's newest combat unit, soon will make its digital debut.
Game designers visited the home of the first two of a planned six Stryker brigades on Friday to watch the soldiers' training for inclusion in a future edition of the popular "America's Army" online video game.

In "America's Army," gamers can take a virtual enlistee through boot camp, advanced training schools and combat missions pitted against other online players.

The game, a free Internet download, has more than 2.8 million registered users since its introduction three years ago.

The game focused on infantry in the beginning. For the game to remain fresh and realistic, game designers expanded the "America's Army" universe to include other specialties, such as combat medic and paratrooper.

"We want to get to where the Army is viewed as a complete team," said Christopher Chambers, deputy director of the game's development team.

There's no substitute for real-life training, Chambers acknowledged, but "America's Army" gives gamers a familiarity with military weapons, tactics and values.

It's little surprise game designers set their sights on the Stryker brigade and its 19-ton, eight-wheeled vehicle. The unit, known formally as the Stryker Brigade Combat Team, is designed to be speedier than tanks and more lethal than foot soldiers in Humvees.

In April, game designers will release an add-on map to "America's Army" that features a digital Stryker vehicle. Gamers won't be able to drive the vehicle, but they can check out its state-of-the-art communications equipment and remotely fire its .50-caliber machine gun.

Plans call for expanded game content focused on the Strykers in the future, but the development team was tight-lipped on details.

Jerry Heneghan, "America's Army" production manager, said that content will feature the brigade's high-tech reconnaissance tools, which gives soldiers the ability to size up a foe on the battlefield before a shot is fired.

How can you feature that technology in a game without bogging it down?

"It's a fine line we walk between realism and fun factor," he said.

To help in the endeavor, game designers did reconnaissance of their own, scouting out an exercise at the new urban training center at Fort Lewis.

They videotaped and jotted down plenty of notes as soldiers from A Company, 124th Infantry Battalion, of the second Stryker brigade emerged from Stryker vehicles to storm a three-story building overrun with Iraqi insurgents played by soldiers.

Afterward, game designers chatted with the soldiers and examined the interior of the Stryker and its equipment.

What do the soldiers think of the games?

"Most of the war games use the same tactics that we use today," said Spc. Josip Ponjavic, 21.

Many have described "America's Army" as a recruiting tool. But Chambers said its primary mission is to present a realistic portrayal of the Army to young people who have only seen military service depicted in movies or on television.

It's a "happy byproduct" if the game draws more young people to the recruiting office, he said.

"That's not what we're about," he said. "We're about creating awareness and strategic communication about what the Army is about."

The first Stryker brigade, the 3rd Brigade, 2nd Infantry Division, deployed to Iraq in November and now is based in Mosul.

The second Stryker unit, the 1st Brigade, 25th Infantry Division, could follow later in the year, said Maj. Lee Barnes, brigade civil affairs planner.
