LAV trunnion used to hold and maneuver LAV for welding

Alcario Castaneda, journeyman welder, uses a plasma cutter and Light Armored Vehicle Trunnion to remove a panel from a LAV, in the weld shop at Production Plant Barstow, aboard Marine Corps Logistics Base Barstow's Yermo Annex, Feb 3. Castaneda has been with the department for approximately six years and uses various types of equipment to assist in the repair of equipment damaged in the field. The LAV Trunnion holds the LAV on both ends keeping it off the ground and allowing for full rotation. This gives the welders the ability to work on all angles, edges and curves without impediment.
