This gunnery has presented some unique challenges, as the Death Knight team has successfully validated 35 crews in the time usually allotted for validating a normal company size element of 10-15 crews.

This forced the crews to better themselves, and greatly prepared them for Table VI qualifications. ( Army Photo by Staff Sgt.
