    Pfc. Andrew Williams, a native of Pomona, Calif., and grenadier in Provincial Reconstruction Team Kapisa loads a magazine into his M4 assault rifle with M203 grenade launcher at the "Stress Fire" range at Camp Atterbury Joint Maneuver Training Center in central Indiana. The stress fire range provides a physically demanding and mentally stressful atmosphere to give troops experience in firing their weapons under these conditions, in an effort aimed at preparing them for deployment to a combat zone. The PRT is training to deploy to Afghanistan to engage in rebuilding efforts there.
