Mission Lengths
James Clark, from the website “Task & Purpose,” interviewed Army Capt. Aaron Doft about his work as a Tank Commander. Doft said that daily mission length varies considerably. Sometimes missions could be as short as four hours. In these scenarios, it’s often affirming their presence or discouraging enemies from proceeding to commit harmful action to allied forces or Americans. He says the longest mission that he participated in was 36 hours in the tanks.
