00:00.940 --> 00:02.430
- Every Marine's a
rifleman so everybody needs

00:02.430 --> 00:04.390
to be able to handle a weapon
cause if the time comes,

00:04.390 --> 00:06.240
you need to be able to rely to that person

00:06.240 --> 00:07.527
left and right.

00:07.527 --> 00:09.062
(dramatic music)

00:09.062 --> 00:11.395
(gun shots)

00:13.900 --> 00:15.320
So as a coach in the Marine Corps,

00:15.320 --> 00:16.540
it helps the Marine Corps as a whole

00:16.540 --> 00:18.070
because there's another
subject matter expert

00:18.070 --> 00:21.220
out there to teach the
proper fundamentals to shoot.

00:21.220 --> 00:22.603
- You know if you achieve center mass,

00:22.603 --> 00:23.686
adjust yards.

00:24.850 --> 00:27.070
- For down the line,
when we go to a combat

00:27.070 --> 00:29.000
situation, we're gonna
be more than confident

00:29.000 --> 00:33.080
that the coaches that we
have and we instructed

00:33.080 --> 00:35.540
they are able to teach
the shooters to be able

00:35.540 --> 00:37.013
to shoot actual targets.

00:38.626 --> 00:41.550
- [Ronaldo] The whole first
week is a bunch of classes,

00:41.550 --> 00:44.490
down and dirty, the basics
of how projectiles work,

00:44.490 --> 00:46.850
the bullets themselves, the rifles,

00:46.850 --> 00:47.893
the nomenclature.

00:49.700 --> 00:50.580
- [Angel] This week is basically

00:50.580 --> 00:52.500
to see how the coaches reacts,

00:52.500 --> 00:55.230
having a shooter that doesn't
know what they're doing.

00:55.230 --> 00:57.400
So, the instructors will be shooting,

00:57.400 --> 01:01.020
while they're shooting, the
coaches or the students,

01:01.020 --> 01:02.830
they'll be instructing the coaches

01:02.830 --> 01:06.270
on what exactly to fix,
whether it's the forehand,

01:06.270 --> 01:07.260
the butt stock on the shoulder,

01:07.260 --> 01:09.330
whatever the case may be.

01:09.330 --> 01:10.660
- [Ronaldo] The most
difficult part was learning

01:10.660 --> 01:13.140
a lot of stuff verbatim
and remembering it,

01:13.140 --> 01:16.180
because we learn our
little secrets in boot camp

01:16.180 --> 01:17.740
about how to remember certain things,

01:17.740 --> 01:19.050
but they don't accept that here.

01:19.050 --> 01:20.510
You have to know everything word by word,

01:20.510 --> 01:23.430
because as a coach, you run the range,

01:23.430 --> 01:25.310
you run that section so
if you don't know stuff,

01:25.310 --> 01:27.153
how are you gonna teach other people?

01:28.300 --> 01:30.770
As a coach, I think that's
the way you help everybody is,

01:30.770 --> 01:32.920
you're that person that
somebody that struggles

01:32.920 --> 01:34.670
with shooting can come and talk to,

01:34.670 --> 01:36.460
so when time comes, you
don't have to worry about

01:36.460 --> 01:37.800
anything you need to do, they know

01:37.800 --> 01:39.700
they'll be hitting black all the time.

01:41.860 --> 01:44.610
