00:01.967 --> 00:04.467
(Tense music)

00:06.780 --> 00:09.721
- Yesterday afternoon,
we inserted via the sea.

00:09.721 --> 00:12.873
It's the first time I've
experienced something like that.

00:12.873 --> 00:16.600
Running off the landing
craft onto the beach

00:16.600 --> 00:19.173
was a good experience, got nice and wet.

00:21.380 --> 00:23.228
This is the first time I've worked

00:23.228 --> 00:25.070
with an infantry battalion.

00:25.070 --> 00:28.020
It's pretty fast-paced,
keeping us on our toes.

00:28.020 --> 00:28.970
But it's been good fun,

00:28.970 --> 00:30.870
and definitely learning a lot from it.

00:32.440 --> 00:34.260
Talisman Saber's an important exercise

00:34.260 --> 00:36.400
to demonstrate to the
world the interoperability

00:36.400 --> 00:38.320
between the United States, Australia

00:38.320 --> 00:40.300
and it's other allies of the region.

00:40.300 --> 00:43.250
Show that we can always work
together in any conflict

00:43.250 --> 00:45.243
that comes to this region of the world.

00:46.350 --> 00:49.240
Australian Defense Force
soldiers out working with us,

00:49.240 --> 00:51.020
every time that we've
worked with Australians

00:51.020 --> 00:53.490
has been a fantastic experience,
they're very professional,

00:53.490 --> 00:55.810
very confident, they take a lot of pride

00:55.810 --> 00:58.300
in being a part of the
Australian Defense Force

00:58.300 --> 00:59.743
so it's a pleasure working with them.
