WTI Course lands at Kiwanis Park in Yuma

YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA, KECY) - If you live in Yuma, you've probably noticed an increase in military aircraft buzzing through the sky lately, and for one day only, locals got a chance to see that action up close.

On Monday at 6:00 p.m., The Weapons and Tactics Instructor (WTI) Course conducted a Foreign Humanitarian Assistance exercise in Yuma.

That means the aircraft landed in a local neighborhood, practicing how to deliver aid in response to crises overseas.

The main landing zone is Kiwanis Park near Eighth Street and S. Magnolia Avenue.

Military personnel dropped off supplies and equipment as part of the training.
