WEBVTT 00:01.720 --> 00:05.699 They like load one each round . You 00:05.699 --> 00:07.255 just to support by firing . 00:14.350 --> 00:16.572 3 weeks , we've been conducting a basic 00:16.572 --> 00:19.120 skills package where we're preparing 00:19.120 --> 00:21.639 our junior Marines who've just got done 00:21.639 --> 00:24.159 completing the 15th moon deployment to 00:24.159 --> 00:26.159 take up leadership positions in the 00:26.159 --> 00:29.540 company . Started with mostly classroom 00:29.540 --> 00:32.599 work , where we focused on employment 00:32.599 --> 00:34.840 of weapon systems , defensive 00:34.840 --> 00:36.840 operations , offensive operations , 00:36.840 --> 00:39.110 patrolling operations . And then we 00:39.110 --> 00:41.221 transitioned to practical application 00:41.221 --> 00:43.332 for the 2nd week , where we're here , 00:43.332 --> 00:45.229 local 262 area , training in the 00:45.229 --> 00:47.700 backyard , conducting ambushes , 00:48.310 --> 00:50.421 testing dudes out on weapon systems , 00:50.421 --> 00:52.532 and then the 3rd week we transitioned 00:52.532 --> 00:54.950 to a force on force . Where we 00:54.950 --> 00:57.630 culminated all two of those weeks into 00:57.630 --> 01:00.110 one force on force exercise . We don't 01:00.110 --> 01:02.332 have time to do rehearsals , but that's 01:02.332 --> 01:01.799 OK . 01:08.089 --> 01:10.930 And the That 01:16.870 --> 01:18.926 We had opportunities to be both fire 01:18.926 --> 01:21.148 team leaders and a squad leader as well 01:21.148 --> 01:23.148 as just a general population to get 01:23.148 --> 01:25.426 perspective and practice at , you know , 01:25.426 --> 01:27.349 all levels . It introduced a good 01:27.349 --> 01:29.405 amount of friction in a , in a large 01:29.405 --> 01:31.460 variety of situations that we had to 01:31.460 --> 01:33.571 respond to , and it really just gives 01:33.571 --> 01:35.571 you some much needed experience for 01:35.571 --> 01:37.793 perspective in the future . My favorite 01:37.793 --> 01:39.960 part of the training was getting a rep 01:39.960 --> 01:42.000 at the leadership positions . At a 01:42.000 --> 01:44.167 level that was intense enough to where 01:44.167 --> 01:46.333 I can really get a perspective for how 01:46.333 --> 01:48.760 it would be to train my guys in the 01:48.760 --> 01:50.959 future just from the sheer volume of 01:50.959 --> 01:53.070 things that we drilled and the amount 01:53.070 --> 01:55.181 of situations that we did , it's kind 01:55.181 --> 01:57.237 of like you have no choice except to 01:57.237 --> 01:59.403 adapt . I'm always somebody that tries 01:59.403 --> 02:01.830 to put 100% into whatever I'm doing so 02:02.239 --> 02:05.089 for myself as a person , it was a great 02:05.089 --> 02:05.559 opportunity .
