 A tactical recovery of aircraft and personnel mission, or TRAP mission, is a high-risk operation to retrieve Marines or sensitive equipment. Because as soon as you hit the boots on deck, you don't know what to expect. You really don't. Once we get the call, we're geared up within five minutes. During a simulated TRAP mission aboard the combat center, 1st Battalion 8th Marine Regiment took flight to practice recovering fellow Marines. One of the biggest issues that they're going to run into is just their situational awareness while you're doing it. So the biggest issue is once they get off the bird, figuring out where everything's oriented and where they need to go. The Bay Root Battalion's weapons company is preparing for future missions while supporting operation and during freedom. Reporting for the Combat Center, I'm Corporal William Jackson.
