War Zone Training for JournalistsDescription
When reporters are assigned to cover a war or conflict somewhere in the world, they better have some training on how to survive.
Reporter Rob Crilly of the Christian Science Monitor talks with Peggy Wehmeyer about his training with British Royal Marines. Crilly, who is based in Kenya, says knowledge of first aid is essential, but protective gear, such as a flak jacket, could make you a target.
