00:00.795 --> 00:03.681
(helicopter blades roar)

00:03.681 --> 00:04.514
- [Staff Sgt. Eric Saffle]
The next air assault mission

00:04.514 --> 00:06.580
will be landing and then
moving toward the compound

00:06.580 --> 00:08.125
which we will be assaulting through.

00:08.125 --> 00:10.875
(dramatic music)

00:15.680 --> 00:17.365
- [Man] Lock and load.

00:17.365 --> 00:20.115
(dramatic music)

00:27.712 --> 00:28.982
- [Staff Sgt. Eric
Saffle] Once we finish the

00:28.982 --> 00:30.750
current objective we will
then begin a movement inward

00:30.750 --> 00:34.110
from 12 to 20 K back to
our original control base.

00:34.110 --> 00:35.470
- Your right one is as far as you can see

00:35.470 --> 00:37.660
on the red flag along this berm.

00:37.660 --> 00:39.210
- So, so far we have secured the LZ

00:39.210 --> 00:41.393
and we're waiting for the
next two lifts to come through

00:41.393 --> 00:43.793
and then we'll be heading
out to our objectives.

00:46.070 --> 00:47.680
The importance of these
air assault missions to us

00:47.680 --> 00:49.610
and doing these live just like we are

00:49.610 --> 00:51.000
is that this is what gets the men going,

00:51.000 --> 00:52.286
this is what the men live for.

00:52.286 --> 00:55.036
(dramatic music)
