 Hi, I'm Sergeant Charles Johnson from Shambal, Iowa here with 2nd Battalion 3rd Marines at Camp Hanson, Okinawa, Japan. Today I'm going to teach you how to shoot indirect fire like a Marine. The purpose of the 60mm mortar section is to provide that organic indirect fire support for the company. This allows our riflemen to close with the enemy so they can hit their objectives. We'll have FOs who are out in front of the lines. They're selecting those targets. I'll call back to myself the fire direction center. I'll take the information that they give me and I'll make gun data that I pass down to the gun line. Off here to my left we have the gunner squad leader. His job is the over-responsibility of the gun and also manipulate the site and orientate the gun towards its targets. Off to the right of the gun is the assistant gunner. His job is to make sure that the ammo is prepped correctly and to load and drop the rounds. And then to the rear we have our ammo man which preps the rounds and hands it off to the A Gunner so he can fire the weapon. Once the rounds have hit the target the F.O. will let me know the fire for effect. And that's when all three guns will fire for the prescribed effect on that target and kill the enemy. And that's how you shoot like a Marine.
