Bill Newcomb, test engineer from Amphibious Vehicle Test Branch, Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, ensures that the movements measured during rail-impact testing with a new Light Armored Vehicle, fit the specifications at Railway Operations on the Yermo Annex aboard Marine Corps Logistics Base Barstow, Calif., May 31. The LAV is chained to a railcar and then the railcar is tested for impact at 4, 6 and 8 miles per hour, but 8 miles per hour in reverse to ensure that it can be transported safely by rail.
