00:03.990 --> 00:07.489
So J RT C it focuses and trains on

00:07.500 --> 00:09.667
large scale combat operations . It's a

00:09.667 --> 00:11.444
challenging , tough , demanding

00:11.444 --> 00:13.444
training , but it's good for us and

00:13.444 --> 00:15.399
it's definitely made us ready for

00:15.409 --> 00:17.131
hardest day of ground combat .

00:17.549 --> 00:19.180
Everybody puts in the work ,

00:19.190 --> 00:22.010
everybody's a team player and no one

00:22.020 --> 00:24.187
thinks that they're above do what they

00:24.187 --> 00:26.242
have to do in order to become that ,

00:26.242 --> 00:28.576
you know , that team paratrooper player .

00:28.576 --> 00:30.353
Me personally , I think it's so

00:30.353 --> 00:32.409
important because it gets you a true

00:32.409 --> 00:34.529
sense of how individuals are going to

00:34.540 --> 00:36.651
act in a combat situation . This is a

00:36.651 --> 00:38.929
culminating event as a brigade , right ?

00:38.929 --> 00:38.819
Because you have the different

00:38.830 --> 00:41.052
battalions that are going to plan their

00:41.052 --> 00:43.052
different missions and then test it

00:43.052 --> 00:45.330
against a free thinking enemy . I mean ,

00:45.330 --> 00:47.552
no one controls so nothing is catered .

00:47.552 --> 00:49.819
Nothing's so it really lets you know

00:49.900 --> 00:52.011
how your organization is fighting and

00:52.011 --> 00:54.233
culminated as a team . So it gives me a

00:54.233 --> 00:56.178
true sense that if tomorrow we got

00:56.178 --> 00:58.344
orders to go anywhere in the world , I

00:58.344 --> 01:00.456
know exactly different attributes and

01:00.456 --> 01:02.567
different soldiers are going to bring

01:02.567 --> 01:01.830
in the fight that I can rely on to make

01:01.840 --> 01:03.951
sure that everybody stays safe to let

01:03.951 --> 01:06.007
them , right . It starts with mental

01:06.007 --> 01:08.118
toughness and everything we do , guns

01:08.118 --> 01:10.340
and leaders to the front that is living

01:10.340 --> 01:12.284
our legacy . So it's the bread and

01:12.284 --> 01:14.396
butter of the 82nd airport division .

01:14.396 --> 01:14.290
The brigade has performed exceptionally

01:14.300 --> 01:16.522
well . So I'm very proud Major Bradshaw

01:16.522 --> 01:18.744
and I are very proud of how the brigade

01:18.744 --> 01:20.856
is performed and where we're at right

01:20.856 --> 01:22.967
now and where we're going to continue

01:22.967 --> 01:23.980
to go for the division and the army .
