Description
One of the containers housing the Australian Counter Rocket, Artillery and Mortar (C-RAM) equipment at Tallil Airbase, manned by Australian Artillery personnel. The equipment detected incoming projectiles and sounded a warning siren so troops could take cover prior to impact. The painted markings indicate the number of projectiles detected by each contingent attached to the four Overwatch battle Groups (OBGs). This image shows the number of projectiles deteced by this particular C-Ram for OBG-2 and OBG-3.
Photographs relating to Sergeant Peter Rewko and his service with Combat Team Chauvel, Overwatch Battle Group (West)-4, Iraq, between December 2007 and June 2008.
