00:05.940 --> 00:08.910
These are the guys behind the scenes ,

00:09.100 --> 00:11.322
the ones that bring supplies out to the

00:11.322 --> 00:13.378
far reaching patrol bases , The ones

00:13.378 --> 00:15.433
that make sure soldiers are fed have

00:15.433 --> 00:17.267
the parts they need and have the

00:17.267 --> 00:19.790
bullets to do their job . It's kind of

00:19.790 --> 00:21.846
like being U haul , you call us , we

00:21.846 --> 00:24.910
move it . This is support platoon HHC

00:24.910 --> 00:27.480
4/70 armor battalion out of long holder

00:27.480 --> 00:29.870
Germany support platoon performs a

00:29.870 --> 00:32.092
myriad of functions including providing

00:32.092 --> 00:34.259
their own security . This includes the

00:34.259 --> 00:36.770
dangerous job of being the gunner . The

00:36.770 --> 00:38.881
most important duty as governor is to

00:38.881 --> 00:40.714
be on the lookout for improvised

00:40.714 --> 00:42.492
explosive devices . It's pretty

00:42.492 --> 00:44.560
dangerous job . First one uh , come

00:44.560 --> 00:46.940
across anything significant dealing

00:46.940 --> 00:49.162
with improvised explosive devices . The

00:49.162 --> 00:51.570
deadliest threat to coalition forces is

00:51.570 --> 00:53.792
part of the job for support platoon and

00:53.792 --> 00:55.737
it's something they're trained and

00:55.737 --> 00:57.959
ready for . We worry about running into

00:57.959 --> 01:00.070
them , but we got drills and training

01:00.070 --> 01:02.570
the let us conduct ourselves . So if

01:02.570 --> 01:04.792
one does happen , we're not gonna panic

01:04.792 --> 01:06.959
or overreact . We kind of know what to

01:06.959 --> 01:09.210
do getting supplies where they need to

01:09.210 --> 01:11.570
go is a thankless job . But one support

01:11.570 --> 01:14.600
platoon does without fail reporting

01:14.600 --> 01:16.767
from multinational base . Tarin kowt ,

01:16.800 --> 01:18.850
