00:00.000 --> 00:01.370
- So, the first step is always

00:01.370 --> 00:03.490
to stabilize the vehicle because safety

00:03.490 --> 00:05.510
is the number one priority.

00:05.510 --> 00:07.130
We're under DCRF.

00:07.130 --> 00:11.283
So, DCRF stands for Defense
CBRNE Response Force.

00:12.200 --> 00:14.280
Pretty much on standby
for if there's any type

00:14.280 --> 00:18.910
of radiological or chemical
attacks on United States

00:18.910 --> 00:21.450
we'll be activated in accordance with,

00:21.450 --> 00:25.310
or in support of FEMA to
respond to sites like these

00:25.310 --> 00:27.393
to make sure we can help save lives.

00:29.360 --> 00:31.140
I was born in Nigeria.

00:31.140 --> 00:33.800
But, I lived most of my life
in Boston, Massachusetts.

00:33.800 --> 00:36.210
And, right now we live in,

00:36.210 --> 00:37.950
or we're stationed at Fort hood, Texas.

00:37.950 --> 00:39.220
That's where we're at right now.

00:39.220 --> 00:41.520
So we're pretty much
conducting urban search

00:41.520 --> 00:43.580
and rescue operations.

00:43.580 --> 00:45.300
The jobs of life is what we call it.

00:45.300 --> 00:49.449
It's pretty much a hydraulic
generator that has iron jaws

00:49.449 --> 00:51.770
that can pretty much cut through steel.

00:51.770 --> 00:56.210
So, what they did was they
ripped off pretty much half

00:56.210 --> 00:59.890
of the door off to be able
to get access to the victim.

00:59.890 --> 01:01.580
Once they got access to the victim,

01:01.580 --> 01:04.870
they packaged the victim in place

01:04.870 --> 01:06.810
to make sure that they
didn't cause more harm

01:06.810 --> 01:08.990
when they were going out to get them.

01:08.990 --> 01:12.010
The other thing that is very
unique about this mission set,

01:12.010 --> 01:13.740
a lot of people, when
you think about the Army,

01:13.740 --> 01:18.740
they think about destroying
the nation's enemies,

01:18.840 --> 01:19.940
foreign or domestic.

01:19.940 --> 01:21.350
But, when you think of DCRF

01:21.350 --> 01:23.790
and specifically urban such and rescue,

01:23.790 --> 01:27.280
it's more of a humanitarian
aid type mission set.

01:27.280 --> 01:29.030
So, our objective is to save lives.
