For those who don’t know, the infantry is segmented into two designations, the 11 bravos and 11 charlies. The Charlie types are given additional weeks of training on how to operate the three different mortar systems. This weapon has had more play in the War in Afghanistan than it has in Iraq. Many moons ago the infantry was split into even more sections with 11 Hotel being responsible for heavy anti-tank weapons. Basically the Army decided to patch the game and consolidate a bunch of the classes down to just the two.

Mortar teams traditionally employ 60, 81 and 120mm mortars in teams of three soldiers.
They can fire thirty of the 60 mm rounds per minute for 4 minutes and then 20 rounds per minute for a sustained rate of fire due to over heating limitations. The mortar element is usually used at the us army infantry company level, a company has 100 soldiers.
