JALABAD, Afghanistan – A Marine fries a tube-launched, optically tracked, wire guided, missile against militia forces during Operation Sorkh Khar. The Marines were attacked with rocket-propelled grenades and machine-gun fire, but quickly responded and gained fire superiority over the insurgents. The Island Warriors had set up a vehicle checkpoint in order to cordon an area of operations and were attacked on Nov. 18 in the Asadabad Province.Photo by: Sgt. Robert M. Storm
