00:00.233 --> 00:02.983
(stirring music)

00:07.490 --> 00:09.310
- For III Corps competition, actually,

00:09.310 --> 00:12.210
it's been really good, it's
been an amazing experience.

00:12.210 --> 00:14.070
Coming from doing the brigade competition,

00:14.070 --> 00:15.890
division competition back at Riley,

00:15.890 --> 00:18.580
and seeing how much it steps up

00:18.580 --> 00:19.970
to the next level every time.

00:19.970 --> 00:21.750
And this really has
been a good competition

00:21.750 --> 00:23.483
to test everybody here, I think.

00:24.338 --> 00:27.780
It has been fun, it's
been a good experience,

00:27.780 --> 00:29.850
and, well, it's definitely
good to be here.

00:29.850 --> 00:31.830
I mean, being here, coaching him through

00:31.830 --> 00:33.360
and getting that experience too

00:33.360 --> 00:36.913
for him as well as a soldier, it's good.

00:40.121 --> 00:42.090
- So, so far the
competition's been real nice.

00:42.090 --> 00:43.970
I've met a lot of cool
people from, you know,

00:43.970 --> 00:45.070
part of the III Corps.

00:45.970 --> 00:47.430
Made some good relations, you know, like,

00:47.430 --> 00:48.790
even though it's a competition,

00:48.790 --> 00:52.210
we all get along well, and I've
developed some camaraderie.

00:52.210 --> 00:56.060
All the NCOs get along with
the joes, it just goes well.

00:56.060 --> 00:58.910
Land Nav was tough, it
was a long, long day.

00:58.910 --> 01:02.800
We woke up 01, all the way up until 1700

01:02.800 --> 01:04.810
we were out there doing the Land Nav,

01:04.810 --> 01:08.920
doing medical CBRN and
communications layings.

01:08.920 --> 01:11.190
Combatives, it was interesting,

01:11.190 --> 01:14.880
it was a different take on the
way we approach combatives.

01:14.880 --> 01:17.640
Yeah, it just hasn't been
anything too strenuous.

01:17.640 --> 01:20.340
I mean, it has been
strenuous, don't get me wrong.

01:20.340 --> 01:23.070
But just, like, looking
at the guy next to you

01:23.070 --> 01:25.300
and understanding that he's
going through the same thing,

01:25.300 --> 01:28.270
it helps you out a little
bit and keeps you going.

01:28.270 --> 01:29.940
So being part of the competition, is just,

01:29.940 --> 01:31.650
it's a great feeling.

01:31.650 --> 01:36.170
You know, competing with the
best of the armored III Corps,

01:36.170 --> 01:37.670
and just competing, like,

01:37.670 --> 01:39.880
I just want to get out
here and compete, you know,

01:39.880 --> 01:41.770
just stand up to the challenge
along with everybody here.

01:41.770 --> 01:43.710
Everybody here wants to compete

01:43.710 --> 01:46.375
and do everything they can
to bring the title back

01:46.375 --> 01:48.724
to represent their post.

01:48.724 --> 01:51.557
