Trooper Brown sits behind the MAG58 machine gun on an ASLAV-25, augmenting the security perimeter of US Combat Outpost 6 (COP6) located to the north of Tallil Airbase. Trooper Brown wears body armour and helmet for additional protection. There is a map in front of him for reference. The vertical hooked bar at the front of the turret is a wirecutter to protect the turret crews from low wires when moving, and the slatted or bar armour around the turret provides additional protection against RPG attack.
