00:01.080 --> 00:04.039
Instructors , is the line ready ? Line

00:04.039 --> 00:06.429
is ready . Fire .

00:15.220 --> 00:17.498
The primary role of academy instructor ,

00:17.498 --> 00:19.331
the main one is teaching weapons

00:19.331 --> 00:21.387
classes and going out to the range .

00:21.387 --> 00:23.498
The main weapon systems that we teach

00:23.498 --> 00:25.331
here , uh , mainly at Joint Base

00:25.331 --> 00:27.680
Charleston , M4 M18 still training on

00:27.680 --> 00:31.159
the M9 , the Glock for OSI , and then

00:31.159 --> 00:35.069
the 240 , 249 , and now the M320 ,

00:35.080 --> 00:38.380
and sometimes the M870 shotgun

00:38.720 --> 00:42.349
and the . M110 sniper rifle . The

00:42.349 --> 00:44.516
typical cam training day students come

00:44.516 --> 00:46.738
in , they sign in , they are introduced

00:46.738 --> 00:48.905
to their instructor for the day . They

00:48.905 --> 00:51.127
go through weapons and classroom safety

00:51.127 --> 00:53.349
procedures . Then they go through about

00:53.349 --> 00:55.127
2.5 to 3 hour classroom portion

00:55.127 --> 00:57.349
learning all the ins and outs about the

00:57.349 --> 00:59.571
weapon system for the day . They go out

00:59.571 --> 00:59.310
to the range . We give them the range

00:59.310 --> 01:01.143
safety briefing . We go over the

01:01.143 --> 01:03.366
different positions that we're gonna do

01:03.366 --> 01:05.643
that day . Then we staple some targets ,

01:05.643 --> 01:07.866
do some of that fun stuff , and then we

01:07.866 --> 01:10.088
start firing . The golden rule is treat

01:10.088 --> 01:12.310
every weapon as if it's loaded . If you

01:12.310 --> 01:11.470
remember that one , all the other

01:11.470 --> 01:13.581
weapon safety rules fall into place .

01:13.589 --> 01:15.629
Others are know what's beyond your

01:15.629 --> 01:17.779
target , bullets go through things ,

01:17.870 --> 01:20.589
and if something is beyond your target

01:20.589 --> 01:22.811
that you don't want to shoot , that's a

01:22.811 --> 01:24.200
little bit of an issue .

01:34.269 --> 01:36.380
After all the firing , which consists

01:36.380 --> 01:38.380
of about 2.5-3 hours as well on the

01:38.380 --> 01:40.949
range , a whole lot of rounds , after

01:40.949 --> 01:42.949
that , we clean up the range , come

01:42.949 --> 01:44.949
back inside the classroom , do some

01:44.949 --> 01:47.005
weapons cleaning , and then send the

01:47.005 --> 01:49.060
students on their way . If a student

01:49.060 --> 01:51.227
were to walk away with something today

01:51.227 --> 01:53.282
or any day would be the marksmanship

01:53.282 --> 01:55.449
fundamentals , that stuff would be the

01:55.449 --> 01:57.616
stuff that saves their life at the end

01:57.616 --> 02:01.169
of the day . 6565 65 .
