    Corporal Garrett Simpson, an anti-tank missileman with 1st Marine Tank Battalion, Tube-launched Optically-tracked Wireless-guided missile (TOW) platoon, and a native of Lexington, N.C., understands just what it takes to work in a unique field but still maintain the same ethos that the Marine Corps is renowned globally for. Within TOW platoon, Simpson works as a driver where he not only drives a HMMWV, but is responsible for its upkeep. The HMMWV that Simpson drives is outfitted with an M41 Saber, an anti-tank weapon system capable of firing on heavily armored vehicles from impressive distances with pinpoint accuracy.
