The blast from the rocket motor lights up the night as U.S. Marines fire a Tube launched, Optically tracked, Wire guided missile from their Light Armored Vehicle on the firing range during an exercise at Fort Pickett, Va., on March 30, 1998. The anti-armor missile, more commonly known as a TOW missile, is guided to its target by thin wires that transmit in flight corrections to the missile from the launcher. The Marines are attached to Delta Company, 3rd Platoon, 2nd Light Armored Reconnaissance Battalion, Camp Lejeune, N.C.
