Summary[edit]

Description
English: A soldier assigned to the 709th Transportation Company fires an M-9 pistol May 5, 2011, at a firing range held on the Army’s landing craft utility 2018, Five Forks, in the Persian Gulf. The range was for soldiers and the crew of the Five Forks to come out and validate with a live fire exercise with crew-served and individual weapons. “A range at sea is very unique,” said Chief Warrant Officer 2 Franky Caraska, vessel master, assigned to the 709th Transportation Company, Heavy Boat, out of Tacoma, Wash. “Here, the boat is pitching and rolling, so the gunner has to take that into consideration as well as the target. What the gunner is shooting at is moving and the platform the gunner is shooting from is moving so there are a lot of variables there.”
Date Taken on 5 May 2011
