00:00.582 --> 00:04.010
(boat engine running)
(waves splashing)

00:04.010 --> 00:06.670
- ME1 Michael Walden,
United States Coast Guard,

00:06.670 --> 00:07.950
Patrol Forces, Southwest Asia.

00:07.950 --> 00:09.550
Part of the maritime engagement team.

00:09.550 --> 00:11.360
We're out here working with the VBSS

00:11.360 --> 00:12.660
team among the Chung-Hoon.

00:13.750 --> 00:16.580
Just getting them ready
for the VBSS mission

00:16.580 --> 00:18.920
out in the CECOM AOR.

00:18.920 --> 00:19.960
Training's going excellent.

00:19.960 --> 00:21.160
They're very willing to learn.

00:21.160 --> 00:23.000
They're actually grasping a lot.

00:23.000 --> 00:24.510
We've done medically training.

00:24.510 --> 00:27.000
We've also gone over boarding procedures

00:27.000 --> 00:28.890
regarding doubts, specific vessels

00:28.890 --> 00:30.990
that they will encounter out here.

00:30.990 --> 00:33.730
We've also gone over tactics for

00:33.730 --> 00:37.580
clearing rooms, passage
ways, T-intersections;

00:37.580 --> 00:39.060
regarding CQC.

00:39.060 --> 00:41.380
- Follow-up shots, like you
should be able to just shoot.

00:41.380 --> 00:43.150
- Sergeant First Class Alan Bland,

00:43.150 --> 00:44.280
I'm with the United States Army.

00:44.280 --> 00:46.470
I'm working out of 56.4.

00:46.470 --> 00:48.492
Home station's Fort Bragg, North Carolina.

00:48.492 --> 00:51.120
- Set, you can successfully.

00:51.120 --> 00:52.570
- [Alan] We're here to work with the IET

00:52.570 --> 00:53.970
and VBSS teams.

00:53.970 --> 00:55.450
- Then you're gonna come back.

00:55.450 --> 00:58.080
- Clearly, the Army's
more of a ground force,

00:58.080 --> 01:01.840
however, we're trying to build networks

01:01.840 --> 01:03.920
in and around the AOR.

01:03.920 --> 01:06.300
- Come out and engage the target back.

01:06.300 --> 01:07.993
- From the sea or the land.

01:09.520 --> 01:11.530
We've been training with them
for the last couple of days

01:11.530 --> 01:13.470
and so far, I'm impressed with what I see.

01:13.470 --> 01:15.474
They seem like an eager group.

01:15.474 --> 01:18.440
(loading and cocking rifles)

01:18.440 --> 01:20.500
Clearly motivated, they
wanna get the job done,

01:20.500 --> 01:22.280
which is something I can
appreciate, for sure.

01:22.280 --> 01:23.810
- Maneuver that gun, being
able to move that gun.

01:23.810 --> 01:25.350
I can shoot someone center mass from here,

01:25.350 --> 01:27.023
high center chest, if need be.

01:27.980 --> 01:29.390
- So, so far, with the VBSS team,

01:29.390 --> 01:31.980
we've gone over boarding procedures,

01:31.980 --> 01:35.350
we've done some COS to
make sure everyone can

01:35.350 --> 01:37.250
medicate while around in the objective

01:37.250 --> 01:40.340
and we just complete some CQB training

01:40.340 --> 01:43.390
where we've gone through
the vessel as small teams

01:43.390 --> 01:45.090
in order to successfully clear it.

01:49.110 --> 01:52.450
- I am Boatswain's Mate
Third Class, Conor Diebel.

01:52.450 --> 01:54.550
I'm from Winter Park, Florida.

01:54.550 --> 01:57.533
I am the coxswain, I
am the getaway driver.

02:00.070 --> 02:01.910
It's been very helpful.

02:01.910 --> 02:03.970
They were very helpful with teaching us

02:03.970 --> 02:08.970
the legal side of what
we do as a VBSS team.

02:09.540 --> 02:13.160
They were very helpful
with combat first aid.

02:13.160 --> 02:16.370
They've been real helpful with
our tactical team movements,

02:16.370 --> 02:18.960
just giving us little
pointers here and there

02:18.960 --> 02:20.993
on how we can improve as a team.
