Which statement represents the blank ammunition requirement for MWD training per MWD?

• A. 10; .38, 5.56 per MWD
• B. 8; .22, 9mm per MWD
• C. 12; .45, 7.62 per MWD
• D. 15; .380, 9mm per MWD

Answer: (A)

Blank ammunition is used in MWD training to simulate firing without live rounds, so the specification focuses on how much is needed per dog and which calibers are authorized. The standard calls for 10 blanks per MWD, with the allowed calibers being .38 and 5.56 per MWD. This combination ensures enough ammunition for the training sessions while sticking to the approved weapon profiles used during exercises. The other options propose different quantities or calibers that do not match the established per-MWD policy, which is why they aren’t correct.
