So very young

My heart felt crushed the first time I saw Chase Haulhauzer (sp) on here. He is so very young and it brings back the reality of war and when we say "our young men". Chase can't be much out of high school! Yet, he's been given an important job (in my opinion) and is counted on to not only run the ever important robots but to protect his 2 truck men by taking on the Talibans with his head looking out, weapon in hand. I can't imagine and can't even my son being in his place. I certainly hope he and all the servicemen on this documentary are home, safe and happy to be in their civilian life again. Thank you all for serving in Afghanistan.

P.S. Can someone please tell me why the Navy is involved with these missions?!?
