My son is currently at 29 Palms for MV training for his upcoming deployment in Afghanistan and Fox news is on site trying to let us see Live Arms Fire, which was suspended yesterday due to heavy winds. They will also be reporting today as well. Here is the link.
Go 1st LAR!

If anyone is interested, this is the 2nd article on 1st LAR the 2nd day where the reporter was at 29 Palms. There was also a video as well, but there is no link to that 2nd one.
Marines Practice for Real Thing
March 11, 2010 - 5:26 PM | by: Rick Leventhal
After pounding targets in the California desert Wednesday until almost midnight, Marines with the Marines' 1st Light Armored Reconnaissance Battalion spent Thursday morning cleaning and reloading before heading north deeper into the Air Ground Combat Center at 29 Palms. By midday the massive 155mm Howitzer cannons were firing again, softening targets for three-companies-worth of tanks and LAV-25s to finish off.
