U.S. Army Staff Sgt. Stephen Murchison, acting as a range safety officer, watches service members with Regional Support Command Southwest, NATO Training Mission Afghanistan, go through a firing order during a Quick Reaction Drill range at Camp Leatherneck, Helmand province, Afghanistan, Sept. 20, 2012. Murchison, is a weapons instructor at Fort Benning and a squad leader with Alpha Company 1st Battalion, 167th Infantry Regiment, Alabama National Guard. The range was conducted to make sure NTM-A personnel were trained and prepared to react to active shooter scenarios that could occur during their advisory mission to the Afghans. Service members went through dry fires before shooting rounds during their combat shoot drills at targets from varied distances. A stress shooting lane where service members had to run to walls and change magazines then acquire targets at different distances culminated the two-day range.
