the third Battalion , 41st Infantry

00:11.240 --> 00:13.360
Regiment , also called Rifle Ear's

00:13.430 --> 00:15.870
conduct advanced situational awareness

00:15.870 --> 00:18.160
training at Fort Bliss texas . The

00:18.160 --> 00:20.630
training allows the rifles to predict

00:20.640 --> 00:22.910
what could happen in an afghan village

00:22.920 --> 00:25.380
based on human behavior before stepping

00:25.380 --> 00:28.830
inside the village . After the three

00:28.830 --> 00:30.886
days of classroom instructions , the

00:30.886 --> 00:33.052
rifle Ear's take their strikers to the

00:33.052 --> 00:35.210
field for more training . During the

00:35.210 --> 00:37.280
five day training program , the

00:37.280 --> 00:39.860
soldiers are able to identify the key

00:39.860 --> 00:42.240
leaders and recognize hostile intent

00:42.250 --> 00:44.810
from a mile away . I've been on two

00:44.810 --> 00:47.220
deployments . Downrange . It's being

00:47.220 --> 00:49.870
valuable just uh , see who the key

00:49.870 --> 00:52.203
players are before we even enter a town .

00:52.203 --> 00:54.259
Well , there's a lot of things about

00:54.259 --> 00:56.370
human behavior I never knew as far as

00:56.370 --> 00:58.537
how people interact with key leaders .

00:58.537 --> 01:00.592
You know when somebody's in charge ,

01:00.592 --> 01:00.320
Just everything about this course has

01:00.320 --> 01:03.150
been just absolutely amazing sitting

01:03.150 --> 01:05.317
around watching the O . P . We've been

01:05.317 --> 01:07.650
able to identify the mullahs , identify ,

01:07.650 --> 01:09.706
identify the key leaders in the town

01:09.706 --> 01:11.983
without ever stepping foot in the town .

01:11.983 --> 01:13.983
