00:01.240 --> 00:02.540
- My name's Sergeant Joshua Rice.

00:02.540 --> 00:04.920
I'm with the 302nd Civil
Engineering Squadron

00:04.920 --> 00:07.250
out of Peterson Air Force Colorado.

00:07.250 --> 00:08.910
My job is electrical power production

00:08.910 --> 00:11.360
and today we're working
on the MET 806 Bravo

00:11.360 --> 00:12.770
which is a generator that produces

00:12.770 --> 00:14.660
up to 60 kilowatts of power.

00:14.660 --> 00:16.720
This generator here is
being used specifically

00:16.720 --> 00:20.480
to power up our M-E-C, also
known as the mec building here,

00:20.480 --> 00:25.170
as well as the shower, shave,
latrine, freezer and laundry.

00:25.170 --> 00:27.840
So part of the RIT new
Toc Tamata ignition is,

00:27.840 --> 00:31.470
we have to insure that all
of our equipment is powered

00:31.470 --> 00:34.490
and we're able to train
on these generators here

00:34.490 --> 00:36.483
and do some preventative maintenance.

00:37.520 --> 00:39.060
Without that, we would not be able

00:39.060 --> 00:40.840
to accomplish the mission.

00:40.840 --> 00:42.910
So we're living in close
quarters with the Marines,

00:42.910 --> 00:44.860
and we will have some
more army individuals

00:44.860 --> 00:45.693
out here as well.

00:45.693 --> 00:49.243
And this being a joint
operation it's really fun.

00:50.110 --> 00:54.080
This is one of my first times
working with other branches

00:54.080 --> 00:55.480
for this duration of time.

00:55.480 --> 00:57.250
And we're all in the same quarters and

00:57.250 --> 00:58.430
without this generator here,

00:58.430 --> 01:00.980
we wouldn't be able to live back there.

01:00.980 --> 01:03.233
It wouldn't be able to
heated or cooled, etc.
