Weapons squad leaders of 1st Battalion, 187th Infantry, 3rd Brigade Combat Team, 101st Airborne Division conduct a seven day machine gun training course for soldiers of the 4th Iraqi Army Division at Forward Operating Base Summerall. The course gave the IA soldiers the opportunity to zero their PKC machine guns and to learn the fundamentals of different firing positions. Here an IA soldier shows his pain because of the heat of the machine guns barrel as he holds up the weapon so that his partner can fire from the standing position.
