Arkansas National Guardsmen from the 1st battalion, 142 Field Artillery
Brigade, fire their M270A1 Multiple Launch Rocket Systems (MLRS) during maneuver training at Camp Guernsey, Wyoming. The artillery battalion, headquartered in Bentonville, Arkansas, is participating in a large scale training exercise named Operation Western Strike. The MLRS is a highly mobile automatic system that fires surface-to-surface rockets. Twelve MLRS rockets can be fired in
less than one minute by the three-man crew, as well as two Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS) missiles.
