00:06.949 --> 00:07.670
You said

00:12.579 --> 00:14.579
we're out here about to wrap up the

00:14.579 --> 00:16.857
United States Army , Europe and Africa .

00:16.857 --> 00:18.912
Best squad competition been out here

00:18.912 --> 00:20.912
for nearly 10 days with squads from

00:20.912 --> 00:23.079
across the United States army , Europe

00:23.079 --> 00:22.969
and Africa footprint competing . This

00:22.979 --> 00:25.201
competition is an opportunity for squad

00:25.201 --> 00:27.146
leaders to get into the field . Uh

00:27.146 --> 00:29.201
execute the warrior tests and battle

00:29.201 --> 00:31.312
drills , train their soldiers develop

00:31.312 --> 00:33.479
camaraderie . And ultimately , from an

00:33.479 --> 00:35.479
administrative perspective , we can

00:35.479 --> 00:37.701
identify who will represent the theater

00:37.701 --> 00:39.423
army at the United States Army

00:39.423 --> 00:41.535
competition at the end of September .

00:41.535 --> 00:43.701
The best squad competition means to me

00:43.701 --> 00:45.368
that my soldiers and I get to

00:45.368 --> 00:45.259
demonstrate our warrior tasks and

00:45.270 --> 00:47.810
battle drills and perform as a cohesive

00:47.819 --> 00:50.259
squad and compete against other teams

00:50.270 --> 00:52.437
across the army . The number one thing

00:52.437 --> 00:54.548
you could do to prepare for something

00:54.548 --> 00:56.714
like this is to put your gear on , get

00:56.714 --> 00:56.900
out in the woods and just train .
