(NASHVILLE, IN) - Troops recently received some special training for an upcoming mission to Afghanistan.

Members of both the army and the air force saddled up to learn to ride horseback.

The training took place at Brown County State Park, where there are plenty of trails on which to gain experience.

Sixty-six service members are part of the program.

They will head overseas later this month.
