A 3rd Infantry Division M1A2 SEPv3 Abrams main battle tank slowly moves onto a barge made of several bridge segments during a 497th Multi-Role Bridge Company, 92nd Engineer Battalion wet-gap crossing exercise in Fort Stewart’s Pineview Lake Sept. 21. The engineers constructed barges to move the tank, an Armored Multi-Purpose Vehicle, and a Bradley infantry fighting vehicle across the lake. Moving heavy equipment across a water obstacle is a critical task for the unit because it validates the Army’s maneuvers capabilities and ability to close with and destroy an enemy.
