Description
English: CAMP DWYER, Helmand province, Afghanistan - U.S. Marines with Regimental Combat Team 5 fire their rifles at the battle site zero range here, Aug. 19. The BZO range allows Marines to adjust their rifle optics to account for climate change from the U.S. to Afghanistan.

Editor’s note: RCT-5 is currently transitioning with RCT-1 and is assigned to 2nd Marine Division (Forward), which heads Task Force Leatherneck. The task force serves as the ground combat element of Regional Command (Southwest) and works in partnership with the Afghan National Security Forces and the Government of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan to conduct counterinsurgency operations. The unit is dedicated to securing the Afghan people, defeating insurgent forces and enabling ANSF assumption of security responsibilities within its area of operations in order to support the expansion of stability, development and legitimate governance.
