Sgt. Paul Morales, a section chief with Bravo Battery, 1st Battalion, 11th Marine Regiment, 1st Marine Division (Forward), does a modified push-up using ammo cans and the back of an M777 Lightweight Howitzer cannon, Sept. 29. Morales, a 22-year-old native of Rialto, Calif., is responsible for 11 Marines who clean, load, and fire the artillery cannon in support of units in northern Helmand province. This responsibility pushes him to stay on top of his game in every way, he said. “We don’t have a gym out here, so you have to stay in shape any way you can,” Morales said. “I try to do about a hundred push-ups a day with my flak on.”
