Cpl. Michael T. Wier, from 1st Battalion, 7th Marine Regiment, or "First Team," provides weapons maintenance before "leaving the wire" for a mission on Al Anbar Province's dangerous roads June 3, 2006. The 22-year-old from Scottsdale, Ariz., is with the battalion's Personal Security Team. The team's job is cut and dry - provide maximum security for the battalion's top brass. The team consists of a handful of armored humvees with a variety of infantry weapons, to include heavy machine guns and anti-armor weapons. While most U.S. Marine Personal Security Teams are composed of infantrymen, Marano's Personal Security Team is comprised mostly of "support" Marines - administrative clerks, communications technicians, and other "non-infantry"-type occupations.
