00:05.940 --> 00:08.162
medical M . O . S . S . Were tend to be

00:08.162 --> 00:10.273
thought of is very versatile and what

00:10.273 --> 00:12.496
that what that means is that oftentimes

00:12.496 --> 00:14.496
we spend a lot of time in an office

00:14.496 --> 00:16.496
setting at the core . What we do is

00:16.496 --> 00:18.384
fueled medicine especially the 68

00:18.384 --> 00:20.496
whiskeys combat medics . Mdf soldiers

00:20.496 --> 00:22.662
have a special duality where they need

00:22.662 --> 00:24.607
to have top of scope practice with

00:24.607 --> 00:26.773
their I . C . T . There are individual

00:26.773 --> 00:28.662
critical tasks that are medically

00:28.662 --> 00:30.773
oriented for our soldiers and then we

00:30.773 --> 00:30.740
like to compliment their skill sets and

00:30.740 --> 00:32.962
bring them out to the field environment

00:32.962 --> 00:34.907
where they can also practice their

00:34.907 --> 00:36.907
soldier skills so that when they're

00:36.907 --> 00:39.129
called upon in future situations in any

00:39.129 --> 00:38.890
field environment they're not only

00:38.890 --> 00:41.057
clinically proficient but they're also

00:41.057 --> 00:43.279
tactically proficient . So they're able

00:43.279 --> 00:45.501
to do those basic tasks like care under

00:45.501 --> 00:47.390
fire . Um calling for a nine line

00:47.390 --> 00:49.668
medevac , land navigation . See Bernie ,

00:49.668 --> 00:51.612
things like that . We're first and

00:51.612 --> 00:53.750
foremost soldiers . So this helps us

00:53.750 --> 00:55.972
with the tactical skills that we need .

00:55.972 --> 00:58.194
If we go downrange and applying it with

00:58.194 --> 01:00.417
our technical skills that we use in the

01:00.417 --> 01:02.639
hospital . If we were in like an actual

01:02.639 --> 01:04.890
combat zone or in a cash unit this is

01:04.890 --> 01:07.057
something that we will need to know we

01:07.057 --> 01:08.946
need to learn . So it's good that

01:08.946 --> 01:10.834
they're preparing for like future

01:10.834 --> 01:13.057
endeavors and not just what we do right

01:13.057 --> 01:15.279
now just you know if you're a medic you

01:15.279 --> 01:17.057
need to know how to do all your

01:17.057 --> 01:19.860
different tasks as a medic . We just

01:19.860 --> 01:22.082
come out here and just drill those into

01:22.082 --> 01:24.082
them . So when it comes to actually

01:24.082 --> 01:26.138
doing it they know exactly what they

01:26.138 --> 01:28.249
needed to do . If we can't get to the

01:28.249 --> 01:30.471
fight , we can't perpetuate the fight ,

01:30.471 --> 01:32.527
We can't win the fight . If we can't

01:32.527 --> 01:34.582
get to the wounded battle buddy , we

01:34.582 --> 01:34.310
can't save the wounded battle buddy .

01:34.320 --> 01:36.598
We can't evac the wounded battle buddy .

01:36.840 --> 01:38.896
The key thing about being out in the

01:38.896 --> 01:41.007
field setting is you take it from the

01:41.007 --> 01:42.840
classroom , you take it from the

01:42.840 --> 01:45.062
didactic from the , the at the academic

01:45.062 --> 01:47.118
mental exercise to putting it in the

01:47.118 --> 01:49.229
field setting where you really get to

01:49.229 --> 01:49.200
test whether you can apply the skills

01:49.200 --> 01:51.422
that you've learned or not . And that's

01:51.422 --> 01:54.350
critical . And the expectation is that

01:54.350 --> 01:56.572
they're not only medically proficient ,

01:56.572 --> 01:58.739
but that their army proficient because

01:58.739 --> 02:00.961
they've got to show up and be part of a

02:00.961 --> 02:00.600
team and lead a team or lead a squad .

02:00.610 --> 02:02.666
And I want these exercises to really

02:02.666 --> 02:04.777
train them to be on that same space ,

02:04.777 --> 02:06.777
if not better when they go wherever

02:06.777 --> 02:08.999
they go , because there are ambassadors

02:08.999 --> 02:11.110
of the ahmed out in the line unit and

02:11.110 --> 02:13.221
we have to remain relevant . And this

02:13.221 --> 02:15.499
is absolutely building into that space ,

02:15.499 --> 02:14.830
is showing that we're always ready and

02:14.830 --> 02:16.050
we're always ready to be part of a team
