Schaumburg to assist with military training

The village of Schaumburg is providing support for routine military training exercises in and around the Chicago area over the next week.

This routine training, which has been planned for several months, is being conducted by military personnel in cities across the country.

As part of this training, residents can expect to see increased aircraft activity, including helicopter flights. All training activities have been coordinated with federal, state and local officials, and the locations have been carefully selected to minimize the impact on the daily routine of residents.

The exercises are designed to ensure the military's ability to operate in urban environments overseas, as service members meet mandatory training certification requirements and prepare for upcoming deployments worldwide.
