00:03.440 --> 00:06.250
Yeah . U . S . Marines and french

00:06.250 --> 00:09.990
soldiers made a big splash during some

00:09.990 --> 00:12.360
amphibious assault vehicle training .

00:13.040 --> 00:16.070
It's part of Amer Call 2011 . An annual

00:16.070 --> 00:18.110
training exchange between the two

00:18.110 --> 00:20.260
countries . It's important for us

00:20.270 --> 00:22.350
training with the U . S . Army ,

00:22.360 --> 00:25.710
especially the marines because we can

00:25.710 --> 00:28.850
see the way of working they have . It's

00:28.850 --> 00:32.660
good for my young soldiers to begin

00:33.140 --> 00:35.370
working with other nations . The

00:35.370 --> 00:37.537
amphibious vehicles motored across the

00:37.537 --> 00:40.960
bay in tight formations , then rolled

00:40.960 --> 00:44.420
ashore and the war fighters began squad

00:44.420 --> 00:47.760
rushes before sending live ammunition

00:47.760 --> 00:51.350
down range . Yeah , for these marines ,

00:51.360 --> 00:53.590
it was a chance to train as they fight

00:54.140 --> 00:56.520
with the added bonus of doing so with

00:56.530 --> 00:59.310
french counterparts , we're basically

00:59.310 --> 01:01.660
just having , you might say a good time

01:01.660 --> 01:03.993
with the french doing buddy team rushes .

01:03.993 --> 01:06.970
Fire Team rushes a V assaults . Like

01:06.970 --> 01:09.137
some of the most disciplined guys that

01:09.137 --> 01:11.137
we worked with shoulder to shoulder

01:11.137 --> 01:13.137
marines and french soldiers kept on

01:13.137 --> 01:16.170
track framing together .
