Fire blazes out of the barrel of a 155 mm towed howitzer when U.S. Army members from Charlie Battery, 1-321 Airborne Field Artillery Regiment, Ft. Bragg, N.C., launch a round at Camp Wright, Afghanistan, Sept. 23, 2009. The team fired the weapon as part of a registry exercise where targets are pre-marked to increase speed and accuracy.
