Shoot for the HIMARS

 

U.S. Marine Corps Lance Cpl. Autumn Becker, a native of Douglass, Pa., and a field artillery cannoneer with 1st Battalion, 10th Marine Regiment, 2d Marine Division (2d MARDIV), loads a High Mobility Artillery Rocket System with 227mm rockets during Exercise Rolling Thunder 21.2 on Fort Bragg, N.C, April 18, 2021. This is a live-fire artillery exercise where 10th Marines employed distributed fires via simulated Expeditionary Advanced Bases (EAB’s). The training increased 2d MARDIV’s combat readiness against a peer competitor. HIMARS are an advanced long-range and mobile rocket system that allow 2d MARDIV to employ precision fires onto a target.
