00:00.630 --> 00:03.297
(intense music)

00:13.391 --> 00:15.699
- Gun One's down, Gun Two stacking in!

00:15.699 --> 00:16.532
- Roger!

00:19.021 --> 00:19.854
- Done loading ammo.

00:19.854 --> 00:20.687
- [Soldier] Fire!

00:20.687 --> 00:23.516
(machine gun firing)

00:23.516 --> 00:24.394
- [soldier] One more.

00:24.394 --> 00:26.650
(machine gun firing)

00:26.650 --> 00:28.610
- We are running Range 410 Alpha.

00:28.610 --> 00:30.410
It is a combined arms assault

00:30.410 --> 00:34.300
with mortars, riflemen,
machine guns, assault men

00:34.300 --> 00:36.020
onto three trenches.

00:36.020 --> 00:38.399
Machine guns are giving
us a lot of cover fire

00:38.399 --> 00:41.395
and assault men fire some
rockets from up there.

00:41.395 --> 00:43.120
(soldier shouting)

00:43.120 --> 00:46.129
The riflemen go up on the tabletop

00:46.129 --> 00:48.560
and engineers go down
and do a breech for us

00:48.560 --> 00:50.669
so we can get more riflemen through.

00:50.669 --> 00:53.300
(distant gun firing)

00:53.300 --> 00:54.230
It's a pretty great time.

00:54.230 --> 00:55.750
It's one of the most complex assaults

00:55.750 --> 00:58.163
that you'll ever really
do at a platoon level.

00:59.840 --> 01:01.380
We get to stretch the limits

01:01.380 --> 01:04.150
in more combat-realistic angles of fire.

01:04.150 --> 01:05.720
It makes it very difficult

01:05.720 --> 01:08.990
and helps us be a lot more prepared.

01:12.200 --> 01:13.610
- So, this was my first
time as team leader

01:13.610 --> 01:16.090
and it was exciting, a little challenging,

01:16.090 --> 01:17.910
and a little more responsibility

01:17.910 --> 01:20.290
and I enjoyed it because
it kept me more aware

01:20.290 --> 01:22.104
of what was going on.

01:22.104 --> 01:24.031
(soldier shouting)

01:24.031 --> 01:24.864
(distant gun firing)

01:24.864 --> 01:26.725
I had to make sure that not
only was I in the right place

01:26.725 --> 01:27.558
(soldier shouting)
but other people were

01:27.558 --> 01:28.391
(soldier shouting)
and we were doing

01:28.391 --> 01:30.300
what we were supposed to do.

01:30.300 --> 01:33.140
So, even though the Reserve
Marines have their civilian life

01:33.140 --> 01:34.190
and they don't get as much time

01:34.190 --> 01:35.890
as the active duty for training,

01:35.890 --> 01:37.977
we still get our training
in and we're efficient.

01:37.977 --> 01:39.667
(gun firing)
And we do the best we can

01:39.667 --> 01:41.510
and still get the job done.

01:41.510 --> 01:43.913
- We finished all the
objectives, we did in good time

01:43.913 --> 01:45.913
and Reserve Marine is ready to go.
