    Don't be a HATR

    Just after midnight, there was a knock on the door to my containerized housing unit. I opened it to see my platoon leader (captain) and platoon sergeant standing there grimly. I knew we hadn’t crashed, but by the looks on their faces, I...

    A Flip of the Switch

    Prior to our deployment, my unit was told we’d be getting three M114 HMMWVs equipped with the Automatic Fire Extinguishing System (AFES). Since no one knew anything about the AFES, we were given a nice PowerPoint presentation to explain the...

    Prior to our deployment, my unit was told we’d be getting three M114 HMMWVs equipped with the Automatic Fire Extinguishing System (AFES). Since no one knew anything about the AFES, we were given a nice PowerPoint presentation to explain the system’s capabilities. While the presentation was informative, it later became apparent that a few of us didn’t pay close attention to it.

This discipline alone defined and ensured my — and many other Soldiers’ — survival at the two-way live-fire range. I remember my platoon sergeant being especially hard on Bradley crews to be disciplined and vigilant before, during and after combat operations.

    Navigating Heat Illnesses

    Foot marches and land navigation training involve a great deal of walking while wearing a rucksack and other required equipment. These types of physical activities induce significant sweating and fatigue, which can lead to heat illnesses.

    Heading Off the Rails

    There I was, fresh out of Advanced Individual Training. I had just reported to my unit three weeks prior and now found myself sitting in the driver’s seat of a Heavy Expanded Mobility Tactical Truck (HEMTT) parked on a railcar. A few questions were running through my mind: How did I get here? What in the world is a HEMTT? Am I going to drive this thing off the ramps? This was going to be bad.
