00:06.365 --> 00:08.748
- [Voiceover] Over on Ford Island, a simulation of a major

00:08.748 --> 00:11.624
disaster has happened, and Toby Clairmont helps

00:11.624 --> 00:14.790
to organize all of the healthcare workers.

00:14.790 --> 00:17.379
- Embedded inside a RIMPAC, that big exercise,

00:17.379 --> 00:19.602
we have this phase known as HA/DR,

00:19.602 --> 00:22.272
or Humanitarian Assistance Disaster Relief.

00:22.272 --> 00:25.667
We are part of that, so we are in partnership

00:25.667 --> 00:28.839
with, oh, the international Red Cross,

00:28.839 --> 00:32.922
the United Nations, partnered with the Army, Navy

00:33.196 --> 00:35.946
to simulate a large high casualty

00:36.478 --> 00:39.106
situation coming out of an earthquake

00:39.106 --> 00:41.088
on a little island nation of Griffin

00:41.088 --> 00:43.814
and we need to work together to deal with those casualties.

00:43.814 --> 00:45.609
- [Voiceover] The service members and civilians

00:45.609 --> 00:47.884
work together to help the injured,

00:47.884 --> 00:50.838
and Army Sergeant Amanda Wyand lends a hand because she

00:50.838 --> 00:53.679
believes training is the best way to be prepared.

00:53.679 --> 00:56.368
- So the Army everything is you practice, you exercise,

00:56.368 --> 00:59.488
you train, you train, you train for the real thing.

00:59.488 --> 01:01.258
I mean anybody that's deployed,

01:01.258 --> 01:03.495
anything like that, you know that those are the most

01:03.495 --> 01:05.001
important things, the foundation,

01:05.001 --> 01:06.416
to rehearse, rehearse, rehearse.

01:06.416 --> 01:08.065
So that way when stuff goes down,

01:08.065 --> 01:10.141
you know how to handle yourself and be prepared.

01:10.141 --> 01:11.738
So think it's really important.

01:11.738 --> 01:13.457
In the world we live you don't know what's gonna happen.

01:13.457 --> 01:14.327
It could be a tsuna--

01:14.327 --> 01:15.861
I mean, it could be anything that requires

01:15.861 --> 01:17.167
all these nations to get together

01:17.167 --> 01:19.054
and do an exercise like this, but in real life.

01:19.054 --> 01:21.685
And the fact that we've already showed that we can do it

01:21.685 --> 01:23.323
and we can come and get along,

01:23.323 --> 01:25.403
everybody knows what roles they have to play.

01:25.403 --> 01:27.820
I thin it's really important.

01:28.690 --> 01:30.787
- The reality is, especially here in the Pacific,

01:30.787 --> 01:34.076
nobody has the resources to do it all by themselves.

01:34.076 --> 01:35.444
We have to do it together.

01:35.444 --> 01:37.163
- [Voiceover] Army Sergeant Matt Krohmer,

01:37.163 --> 01:38.830
Ford Island, Hawaii.
