00:03.120 --> 00:05.200
- [Announcer] The
integrated training exercise

00:05.200 --> 00:07.790
is a special exercise that
affords the Marine Corps

00:07.790 --> 00:11.110
the opportunity to integrate
all aspects of the MAGTF

00:11.110 --> 00:14.610
in a very special place
which would be 29 Palms.

00:14.610 --> 00:16.509
The Commandant of the
Marine Corps has stated

00:16.509 --> 00:19.330
the MAGTF is not necessarily sacrosanct.

00:19.330 --> 00:22.011
In other words, it can't be
the only way that we fight.

00:22.011 --> 00:25.500
That is what makes us
different as a service,

00:25.500 --> 00:29.780
the fact that we have aircraft,
as well as ground forces,

00:29.780 --> 00:32.110
and a robust logistics element.

00:32.110 --> 00:36.802
So bringing those together to
work in an integrated fashion

00:36.802 --> 00:40.070
synchronizes their operations
and makes it to where

00:40.070 --> 00:43.550
we have a larger amount of combat power.

00:43.550 --> 00:46.430
In other words, we are
greater than the sum of parts.

00:46.430 --> 00:48.430
When we come together
in this integrated way,

00:48.430 --> 00:50.480
we develop a certain level of synergy,

00:50.480 --> 00:51.770
with those different parts of our,

00:51.770 --> 00:54.000
of the MAGTF operating together.

00:54.000 --> 00:57.343
We are larger than we appear
to be in combat operations.

00:58.520 --> 01:00.687

01:02.759 --> 01:05.509
