Marine Corps base Hawaii

00:01.770 --> 00:03.410
and welcome to "The Aloha Minute."

00:03.410 --> 00:04.540
Let's take a look and see what's happening

00:04.540 --> 00:06.240
around the installation.

00:06.240 --> 00:07.830
First, we had US Marines

00:07.830 --> 00:09.840
with First Battalion 12th Marine Regiment

00:09.840 --> 00:11.740
conduct Exercise Spartan Fury

00:11.740 --> 00:14.370
aboard Pohakuloa Training Area.

00:14.370 --> 00:16.010
Spartan Fury aims to strengthen

00:16.010 --> 00:18.380
the artillery unit's
expeditionary readiness

00:18.380 --> 00:20.390
and tactical proficiency.

00:20.390 --> 00:22.810
Next, we had US Marines
with both headquarters

00:22.810 --> 00:24.760
and Service Company Headquarters Battalion

00:24.760 --> 00:26.130
Marine Corps Base Hawaii,

00:26.130 --> 00:29.460
participate in a casualty
evacuation exercise.

00:29.460 --> 00:32.130
The exercise aimed to increase
the expeditionary readiness

00:32.130 --> 00:34.070
of Marines within the unit.

00:34.070 --> 00:37.410
Then U S Marines and the
Marine Light Attack Helicopter

00:37.410 --> 00:39.660
Squadron 367 and US Army soldiers

00:39.660 --> 00:42.270
in the 25th Infantry Division participated

00:42.270 --> 00:45.200
in helicopter insertion
and extraction techniques

00:45.200 --> 00:47.400
aboard Schofield Barracks.

00:47.400 --> 00:50.190
Special patrol insertion
and extraction rigging

00:50.190 --> 00:52.810
and fast roping insertion
extraction systems

00:52.810 --> 00:56.120
are used to rapidly insert and
extract Marines and soldiers

00:56.120 --> 00:58.580
when the landing zone is not available.

00:58.580 --> 01:02.280
Finally, a conservation study
was conducted aboard the base.

01:02.280 --> 01:04.640
NCBH partnered with state, federal

01:04.640 --> 01:07.210
and non-profit organization volunteers

01:07.210 --> 01:09.510
to count wedge-tail shearwater chicks,

01:09.510 --> 01:11.610
adults and active burrows.

01:11.610 --> 01:13.890
And that's it for this
edition of "The Aloha Minute."

01:13.890 --> 01:15.988
Mahalo for watching and
we'll see you here soon.

01:15.988 --> 01:18.571
