00:04.040 --> 00:07.150
uh marines depend on Navy Corman to

00:07.150 --> 00:08.928
save lives in emergency medical

00:08.928 --> 00:10.761
situations . But when someone is

00:10.761 --> 00:12.983
seriously wounded and a Corman can't be

00:12.983 --> 00:15.206
there , it falls to the marines to save

00:15.206 --> 00:17.372
that patient . The last thing you want

00:17.372 --> 00:19.483
to do is seen injured marine down the

00:19.483 --> 00:21.650
field and not know what to do and have

00:21.650 --> 00:23.761
forbid those seconds . You know , can

00:23.761 --> 00:25.928
make the difference between whether or

00:25.928 --> 00:25.860
not he's coming home . Marines of

00:25.860 --> 00:27.860
Headquarters Battalion First Marine

00:27.860 --> 00:29.971
Division trained for those situations

00:29.971 --> 00:32.027
during a week long combat lifesavers

00:32.027 --> 00:34.193
course that began October 31 . I'm not

00:34.193 --> 00:36.360
always going to be able to get to that

00:36.360 --> 00:38.693
patient as soon as I need to be able to .

00:38.693 --> 00:40.916
So , you know , with these marines that

00:40.916 --> 00:43.138
are learning to CLS , it's kind of like

00:43.138 --> 00:44.804
a fail safe . It's a surefire

00:44.804 --> 00:47.400
definitive way just to have more people

00:47.410 --> 00:49.740
with the knowledge and the skills to be

00:49.740 --> 00:51.910
able to save lives . The training

00:51.910 --> 00:53.632
helped prepare marines for the

00:53.632 --> 00:55.577
battalion's upcoming deployment to

00:55.577 --> 00:57.466
Afghanistan , reporting from Camp

00:57.466 --> 00:59.521
Pendleton . I'm Lance corporal Tyler
