 Some things that go into a good gun crew, you've got to be motivated, artillery, it's a lot of hard work, a lot of heavy lifting, so you've got to keep your boys motivated. You've got your gunners, you've got your ammo team, you've got to continuously train, even when you're not in the field, to become that well-oiled machine. Once you achieve that well-oiled machine, then everything falls in place, slows, moves, moves fast. When we get the fire missions, what it is is you've got your forward observer team, they're out in the impact area or on the OP. They're the ones that call it in, so they get on the radio, they'll call into our fire direction center. From there, the fire direction center will take the information that the forward observers give them and convert that into data. Once they convert that data, then they will send that data down to the gunline. That's how we get our charge, our propellants, what fuses we're using, the ammunition we're going to be using, and that gives us our deflection and quadrant for the gun, which deflection and quadrant pretty much, that's how we point the cannon to. We shoot that and that makes the rounds land exactly what they're supposed to. Being our artillery man is very serious to me, my brother, he enlisted right after me. He was with the infantry unit 2-8. They were deployed to Afghanistan the same time I was deployed and we actually supported their unit in combat. To me, I take it very seriously because it's my family member on the other end of the gunline and they need help and that's where we come in. We give them the help so they can get out of whatever sticky situation that they might be in.
