Now imagine that video as if the SAW gunner had been issued an IAR instead.
Whoever was shooting at them was dialing in on the dust being kicked up from their muzzle blast on the wall, which was also obscuring the field of view. As a SAW gunner, I would have displaced between bursts, which he did once. They could have done the helmet routine as one person watches from concealment for the muzzle flash and or movement of enemy, then directs DMRs, SAWs, and Grenadiers on target.
