Character's evolution

After the demonstration of the Jericho missile near the Bagram Air Base, Tony Stark decides to get inside a USAF Security Forces Humvee in which are three airmen; Jimmy, Pratt and Ramirez. Stark feels uncomfortable as the two male airmen are intimidated by his presence. Stark manages to lighten the atmosphere. Eventually, Jimmy asks for a picture with Stark. He gives his camera to Pratt who tries to focus. When Jimmy makes a "V" with his fingers, Stark teases him with a "no gang signs".

Yet at the very moment Pratt is about to take the picture, the front Humvee exploses. the convoy is attacked. Pratt orders Jimmy to stay with Stark as he exites the car. Jimmy asks Stark to lay down. His machine gun is jammed. Jimmy orders Stark to stay inside the vehicle and gets out of the Humvee but is shot by several bullets shortly after.
