Summary
U.S. Army Spc. Derek Farrington (right), from Ames, Iowa, uses a pry bar to remove a tow bar from the hitch of a Mine Resistant Ambush Protected - all terrain vehicle Jan. 8 at Forward Operating Base Mehtar Lam, Afghanistan, while U.S. Army Pvt. Torin Xaiden from Independence, Iowa, looks on. The two all-wheeled vehicle mechanics, both with Company E, 1st Battalion, 133rd Infantry Regiment, a part of the 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 34th Infantry Division, hauled another M-ATV which was leaking oil, into the garage and fixed the problem before the operator returned with his paperwork.
