Marines with 2nd Marine Regiment, Headquarters Company, Motor Transport Platoon practice towing a simulated, downed vehicle, May 2, 2013, during the Regimental Command Post Exercise. The training was part of the immediate-action drills conducted by the platoon during their convoys to help get hands-on training in preparation for Regimental Combat Team 2’s deployment to Afghanistan. “The immediate-action drills are very important, it’s what is going to keep us alive, and they keep us on our toes. The drills teach all the Marines from [private first class] to captain what to do if we take casualties or fire. Also, they make us practice letting everyone else in the convoy know what’s going on and what a vehicle or Marine needs, whether it be a nine line (template radio call describing wounds attained during an attack for evacuation) or more suppressing fire, so we don’t lose any lives or gear and complete the mission,” said Sgt. Marcos Aglar, a platoon sergeant with Headquarters Company, Motor Transport Platoon from Houston, Texas.
