Class 23-006 Graduates enjoy a well deserved last cigar in the legendary “smokeshack” after graduation! Congratulations!

[Charlie 92 @Charlie_92_]

AMG Class 23-006 has been hard at work during Exam Block III! From conducting prep to fire checks last week to this week at the range; they have been learning how to advise commanders on all aspects of M1 Abrams lethality!

Class 23-005 moves into the Gunnery Phase! Ammunition complete and moving onto Advanced Conduct of Fire!

[Charlie 92 @Charlie_92_]

SFC Tharaldsen kicks off the Gunnery Team with AMG class 23-004! The students are learning the capabilities of our ammunition on day one!

@designbymark When the Army changed from the 17-12 and went to the TC 3-20.31 yes the B3 swing went away, however, soon a version of that will be returning. The tank pictured is backing up to simulate changing battle positions. The M240 also appears to need a little TLC and CLP as well…

Who else missed the Bravo 3 swing?

[Charlie 92 @Charlie_92_]

SFC Baxter goes over the prior day’s Practical Exercise covering ACOF before heading out for our last range day with class 23-003.

[Charlie 92 @Charlie_92_]

After a long day at the range for Class 23-003, SFC Tharaldsen answers questions about the fuzing system inside the M830A1 MPAT round. Master Gunner instructors remain accessible to students 24/7 to ensure all students, pass or fail, leave with the best understanding possible!

[Charlie 92 @Charlie_92_]

@ALeatherbury1 You would be half correct Top, the M1002 is a representation of the M831A1.

[Charlie 92 @Charlie_92_]

Class 23-002 has begun learning FM 7-0 specifically, Unit Training Management, from SFC Baxter. Master Gunners are key to advising Commanders and Operations Officers on planning considerations during the first step of the 8-Step Training Model!

[Charlie 92 @Charlie_92_]

Class 23-002 continues their journey to Master Gunners by learning whats at the core of a MG, building gunnery tables! Next door, Class 23-003 is beginning their journey with Basic Electricity! #IWILLBEAMASTERGUNNER

[Charlie 92 @Charlie_92_]

SFC Baxter teaching MG class 23-002 about the effects of CANT on the Abrams Tank. Understanding the Error Budget gives Master Gunners the ability to teach crews how to be more lethal and avoid and train for instances of inaccuracy.

[Charlie 92 @Charlie_92_]

@CavRTK Had a small hot mic Sir, got it fixed and back on the ready line!

[Charlie 92 @Charlie_92_]

Master Gunner students of class 23-002 continue learning during Fire Control System Day 2! A good understanding of the Abrams FCS is the foundation for understanding how the tank operates and allows Master Gunners to advise commanders on unit maintenance.

@aggie19alpha @Rogue0711 @ArmyTimes It also helps you to not sound like an idiot and call the course by its correct name. I have no idea what “Master Gunnery” course is. Words mean things.

[Charlie 92 @Charlie_92_]

@aggie19alpha @ArmyTimes Based on your own insecurities is disgusting. This Master Gunner knows has ALREADY forgotten more about tanks and war fighting than you could hope to learn. You need to remove the 19A from your name, clear and elevate and get the fuck off my range.

[Charlie 92 @Charlie_92_]

@aggie19alpha @ArmyTimes Oh here we go. C92 coming back after awhile off the net to square away the range. Look here “sir” (that’s lowercase on purpose btw, because a scumbag like you doesn’t deserve a capital letter). That “female”, you mean that Noncommissioned officer that is a MASTER GUNNER…

[Charlie 92 @Charlie_92_]

@aggie19alpha @ArmyTimes A Mike Golf, was trained by the most knowledgeable and professional MG’s that this Army has to offer. She is worth more to any formation across the force than you are/were, and I would gladly go to war with her any day of the week. The fact that your pompous ass judges her…

[Charlie 92 @Charlie_92_]

Exam 3 is complete and we have moved on to exam block 4 with 20/20 students! Tomorrow is the practice UTP board, and the students final exam will be on 4 October.

[Charlie 92 @Charlie_92_]

Abrams Master Gunner Exam 3 is today!
