00:11.140 --> 00:13.418
senior enlisted throughout Afghanistan ,

00:13.418 --> 00:15.473
gather monthly to exchange ideas and

00:15.473 --> 00:17.418
resources . This month , sergeants

00:17.418 --> 00:19.640
major met up at Kandahar airfield . The

00:19.640 --> 00:21.973
theme of this month was uh man equipped ,

00:21.973 --> 00:24.029
train we've been manning and then we

00:24.029 --> 00:25.918
train and then we get here in the

00:25.918 --> 00:25.780
theater and we equip our soldiers ,

00:25.780 --> 00:27.780
sailors , airmen , marines with all

00:27.780 --> 00:29.891
sorts of equipment to enable them out

00:29.891 --> 00:32.058
there on the battlefield . Yet , maybe

00:32.058 --> 00:34.058
it's a little bit too late . So the

00:34.058 --> 00:36.224
intent was to is to show the sergeants

00:36.224 --> 00:38.280
major from different organizations ,

00:38.280 --> 00:38.110
some of the tools and some of the

00:38.110 --> 00:40.530
equipment that we're using down here in

00:40.530 --> 00:42.752
Regional Command South in order to save

00:42.752 --> 00:44.697
lives . We've been working hard to

00:44.697 --> 00:46.752
ensure that our formations are young

00:46.752 --> 00:48.863
soldiers , sailors , airmen , marines

00:48.863 --> 00:50.974
out there in the R . C . Are properly

00:50.974 --> 00:53.141
equipped and the bottom line is , this

00:53.141 --> 00:55.252
is all about them . And if we can put

00:55.252 --> 00:55.020
this this equipment in their hands ,

00:55.020 --> 00:56.964
it's just a little bit earlier . I

00:56.964 --> 00:58.964
think we'll be better off than when

00:58.964 --> 01:00.964
we're currently at the war can hard

01:00.964 --> 01:03.020
each and every day . Marine corporal
