Please explain to me why the Air Nat'l Guard was "dropping flares" during an exercise as stated by an ANG Major at the time of the Flight 800 incident

Would the flares look like a streak of light?

I dropped flares on a vast majority of the training flights I flew with the ANG. It is completely routine and part of training.
