    Sgt. Ricardo A. Monge, a launcher chief with 3rd Platoon, Tango Battery, 5th Battalion, 11th Marine Regiment, receives information from the fire direction center during a dry-fire drill for the High Mobility Artillery Rocket System here, Feb. 26. Monge, a 24-year-old native of Los Angeles, leads a three-man launcher team in daily drills to increase their response time to support requests. The HIMARS allows the Marines to support fire missions within minutes and deliver precision fire within one meter of the target location.
