(guitar music)

00:04.045 --> 00:05.300
(shot firing)

00:05.300 --> 00:06.603
- [Narrator] We're conducting a series of

00:06.603 --> 00:07.989
combat marks and shoots.

00:07.989 --> 00:10.599
^Where we're making sure the marines

00:10.599 --> 00:14.017
were proficient in shooting, moving, reloading,

00:14.017 --> 00:16.703
basically all the individual skills that are needed

00:16.703 --> 00:19.305
if we took contact or got in some type of conflict.

00:19.305 --> 00:22.388
(machine gun firing)

00:22.927 --> 00:24.636
During a recovery of personnel

00:24.636 --> 00:26.023
marines need to be able to take ground

00:26.023 --> 00:27.856
as well as egress from a situation.

00:27.856 --> 00:30.058
We just wanted to practice shooting and moving,

00:30.058 --> 00:32.137
taking ground and returning fire while

00:32.137 --> 00:35.554
moving away from a situation or an enemy.

00:38.046 --> 00:39.183
They're definitely going to be prepared

00:39.183 --> 00:40.772
for anything that comes up in the future.

00:40.772 --> 00:43.952
Over our work up we definitely met the standard

00:43.952 --> 00:46.435
in terms of individual actions at their level

00:46.435 --> 00:49.977
as well as a unit and right now it's just advancing,

00:49.977 --> 00:52.297
continuing to move forward and progress,

00:52.297 --> 00:54.698
and make sure that we're ready for

00:54.698 --> 00:57.031
anything that comes our way.
