Italy is also facing mounting restrictions of the range's use because of local concerns. Like Capo Teulada, Cape Wrath is closed four months out of the year with weather further limiting training from November through February. The remote location of Cape Wrath also would take away valuable time from training activities. We must do whatever we can to ensure the continuation of live fire training. We can not ask our military to sail into harm's way without first ensuring that they are prepared to do so.
Lives are at stake.
