Two four-man Tank crews from Company C "Cyclones", 1st Battalion, 64th Armor Regiment, 2nd Armored Brigade Combat Team, 3rd Infantry Division, race against each other, and ultimately the rest of the crews teams within the company, for the quickest time in a Cyclone obstacle course at their battalion's motorpool here, Sept. 10. Pictured here are two teams just starting the race by moving a High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV), and two dummy rounds, from one point to another. The fake munitions are designed to simulate the size, shape and weight of the real rounds, and had to stay

The fake munitions are designed to simulate the size, shape and weight of the real rounds, and had to stay with the crew teams as the raced around the motorpool to different stations where they had to do different physical exercises. This is all part of a 13-event, three-day competition, designed to bolster Esprit de Corps, as well as help them prepare for the gunnery they have coming up in the fall. ( Army photo by Sgt.
