00:02.269 --> 00:04.269
The soldiers in the Army Veterinary

00:04.269 --> 00:06.460
Corps get a lot of chance to work on

00:06.469 --> 00:08.413
small animals like dogs , but they

00:08.413 --> 00:10.525
don't get a chance to work with large

00:10.525 --> 00:12.580
animals , especially food production

00:12.580 --> 00:14.469
animals , um , cattle , sheep and

00:14.469 --> 00:16.989
horses . And so we wanted to do was

00:17.000 --> 00:18.778
have kind of experiential based

00:18.778 --> 00:20.940
training where they weren't in a

00:20.950 --> 00:23.559
classroom all day , but rather we gave

00:23.569 --> 00:25.791
them some information and then they got

00:25.791 --> 00:28.013
to go do hands on activities that would

00:28.013 --> 00:30.125
enhance their learning . You see most

00:30.125 --> 00:32.069
of the people that we work with in

00:32.069 --> 00:34.291
public health activity , Italy , we see

00:34.291 --> 00:36.458
those guys twice a year for our annual

00:36.458 --> 00:38.736
A TX . So to get other people involved ,

00:38.736 --> 00:40.902
I think it's really beneficial because

00:40.902 --> 00:40.689
we learn from their experiences and

00:40.700 --> 00:42.922
they get to teach us and we get to help

00:42.922 --> 00:44.811
each other out in those aspects .

00:44.811 --> 00:46.922
Everybody is embracing the together ,

00:46.922 --> 00:48.867
everybody's getting poop on them ,

00:48.867 --> 00:51.089
everybody's in the mud , everybody's in

00:51.089 --> 00:53.311
the rain , everybody's cold . Um And so

00:53.311 --> 00:55.311
you're able to bond better and just

00:55.311 --> 00:55.360
share those stories .
