00:02.789 --> 00:05.519
I came out here to basically experiment

00:05.519 --> 00:07.849
and to test ourselves in an

00:07.849 --> 00:10.016
expeditionary nature and trying to get

00:10.016 --> 00:11.405
as austere as possible .

00:13.850 --> 00:16.049
How can we get these repair parts ,

00:16.090 --> 00:18.090
these classes of supply , these

00:18.090 --> 00:20.489
maintenance capabilities to the war

00:20.489 --> 00:23.049
fighter , to the front lines as fast

00:23.049 --> 00:26.829
and as efficiently as possible . We

00:26.829 --> 00:29.430
are moving lighter , smaller , and more

00:29.430 --> 00:31.670
mobile , so we're not as heavy as we

00:31.670 --> 00:33.830
were in Iraq and Afghanistan , which

00:33.830 --> 00:36.819
means multimodal needs to pull support

00:37.099 --> 00:38.877
from all different directions .

00:40.700 --> 00:43.299
This next fight , the future , there's

00:43.299 --> 00:45.466
not going to be a whole lot of roads ,

00:45.466 --> 00:47.577
so there's going to be a lot of water

00:47.577 --> 00:49.743
or a lot of distance . We incorporated

00:49.743 --> 00:52.459
CLB 8's boat teams to provide a means

00:52.459 --> 00:54.737
of transportation of classes of supply ,

00:54.737 --> 00:56.959
and then we also used aerial delivery ,

00:56.959 --> 00:58.659
which is your second means of

00:58.659 --> 01:00.992
transportation in an island environment .

01:00.992 --> 01:04.220
HMH 464 provided that support . We've

01:04.220 --> 01:06.419
got ammunition company setting up the

01:06.419 --> 01:09.059
FAS so that we can go draw ammunition .

01:09.069 --> 01:11.236
We can draw machine gun ammunition and

01:11.236 --> 01:13.739
grenades and then go execute those live

01:13.739 --> 01:16.139
fire ranges that develops those those

01:16.139 --> 01:18.379
war fighters that are not necessarily

01:18.379 --> 01:20.546
front line again . Now all of a sudden

01:21.019 --> 01:23.130
they've got training on how to defend

01:23.130 --> 01:25.019
themselves , how to employ weapon

01:25.019 --> 01:27.709
systems if they need to . It doesn't

01:27.709 --> 01:29.931
matter about the training you've done .

01:29.931 --> 01:31.987
It doesn't matter about where you've

01:31.987 --> 01:34.042
been in the field . If your gear and

01:34.042 --> 01:36.042
equipment aren't ready , you're not

01:36.042 --> 01:35.800
going to be ready to deploy .
