00:00.240 --> 00:02.289
- Three, two, one

00:02.289 --> 00:04.443
(explosion drowns out speaker)

00:04.443 --> 00:06.860
(rock music)

00:08.180 --> 00:10.180
- There's a couple of things that really

00:11.890 --> 00:14.950
make this type of training so valuable.

00:14.950 --> 00:18.853
Specifically in the central
command area of responsibility,

00:20.330 --> 00:23.800
there's a lot of threats and
there's a lot of things that

00:23.800 --> 00:25.970
we're interested in
being able to influence

00:25.970 --> 00:27.180
and our partners in this region

00:27.180 --> 00:28.680
are all very, very important.

00:28.680 --> 00:32.530
Anything we can do to
strengthen those relationships,

00:32.530 --> 00:35.600
build those bonds and build
individual relationships

00:35.600 --> 00:39.100
between commanders and
increase familiarity

00:39.100 --> 00:41.428
will always be a benefit for our force.

00:41.428 --> 00:44.170
(rock music)

00:44.170 --> 00:48.400
- So we had to exercise our
ship-to-shore capabilities

00:48.400 --> 00:51.020
utilizing the Eltax as service connectors,

00:51.020 --> 00:55.170
as well as from CMP, live-fire maneuver

00:55.170 --> 00:56.617
as well as the stress shoot.

00:56.617 --> 00:58.010
(rock music)

00:58.010 --> 01:02.070
- [Logan] The 26 MEU, BLT
and weapons company I think

01:02.070 --> 01:03.550
did a good job proving that we can take

01:03.550 --> 01:06.940
a short planning
timeframe, work with some,

01:06.940 --> 01:09.680
some key partners in, in the CENTCOM AOR

01:11.230 --> 01:12.460
and come up with some great training

01:12.460 --> 01:14.131
over the course of a couple of days.

01:14.131 --> 01:15.763
