WEBVTT

00:07.139 --> 00:08.695
A basic overview of what we

00:08.695 --> 00:10.699
accomplished is kind of a back to

00:10.699 --> 00:14.479
basics to get on um . Up to speed with

00:14.479 --> 00:16.479
the rest of the unit , a lot of our

00:16.479 --> 00:18.590
more experienced , uh , defenders are

00:18.590 --> 00:20.270
out there , uh , doing , uh ,

00:20.280 --> 00:22.391
deployments and things like that . So

00:22.391 --> 00:24.799
we just did a basics of our air base

00:24.799 --> 00:26.966
ground defense , the classroom setting

00:26.966 --> 00:28.966
and talking about all of our , uh ,

00:28.966 --> 00:31.077
tactics and techniques and procedures

00:31.229 --> 00:33.340
and then moving out and putting it in

00:33.340 --> 00:35.479
practice out in the field and then we

00:35.479 --> 00:37.535
also moved into a nighttime phase of

00:37.535 --> 00:40.450
our training . um , had our , our

00:40.450 --> 00:42.339
airmen here get a hold of all the

00:42.339 --> 00:44.283
equipment that , uh , they will be

00:44.283 --> 00:46.228
using throughout their career as a

00:46.228 --> 00:48.394
security forces member , uh , so a lot

00:48.394 --> 00:51.479
of , you know , vehicle training , uh ,

00:51.490 --> 00:53.323
nighttime operations , nighttime

00:53.323 --> 00:54.990
movements , uh , getting them

00:54.990 --> 00:57.046
comfortable with that . So then when

00:57.046 --> 00:59.379
they join our our larger group and , uh ,

00:59.379 --> 01:01.601
they'll be on a level plane to where we

01:01.601 --> 01:03.879
can all , uh , start training together .

01:03.879 --> 01:06.046
Having a small group , having 7 people

01:06.046 --> 01:08.410
out here , uh , we got to see , you

01:08.410 --> 01:10.809
know , their , their normal positions

01:10.809 --> 01:13.370
as a fire team member and then , uh , I

01:13.370 --> 01:15.537
think we have one that was a fire team

01:15.537 --> 01:17.759
leader , uh , but getting them out here

01:17.759 --> 01:19.926
in a smaller group they're able to see

01:19.926 --> 01:22.092
the duties of the , you know , kind of

01:22.092 --> 01:24.259
person below them and the person above

01:24.259 --> 01:26.148
them . So , uh , we had brand new

01:26.148 --> 01:27.981
airmen out of tech school , uh ,

01:27.981 --> 01:30.203
filling the role as a squad leader when

01:30.203 --> 01:32.203
it comes to mission planning . Uh ,

01:32.203 --> 01:34.148
actually moving a squad , uh , out

01:34.148 --> 01:36.203
there in the field , so it was a , a

01:36.203 --> 01:38.639
great opportunity to get younger airmen

01:38.639 --> 01:41.209
exposed to those responsibilities that

01:41.209 --> 01:43.376
they may not hold right now , uh , but

01:43.376 --> 01:45.431
hopefully they'll strive for and and

01:45.431 --> 01:46.569
fill that position in the future .
