00:02.180 --> 00:04.402
Today we came out to the range with the

00:04.402 --> 00:06.013
fence . Uh , they gave us an

00:06.013 --> 00:08.180
introductory PMI class on their , uh ,

00:08.180 --> 00:10.513
AK variant , uh , showed us how to load ,

00:10.513 --> 00:12.680
unload , dissemble , reassemble , um ,

00:12.680 --> 00:12.640
and then , uh , we got a chance to

00:12.640 --> 00:14.680
shoot and , uh , zero some of the

00:14.680 --> 00:16.760
rifles too , so . That's about it .

00:16.940 --> 00:19.051
That's about all the time we have for

00:19.051 --> 00:21.920
today . The picture you'll get better

00:21.920 --> 00:25.780
results . Pull cross training

00:26.190 --> 00:28.459
is very important for the readiness um

00:28.750 --> 00:30.770
allows us to cross train each other

00:30.770 --> 00:33.720
adapt to different weapons , terrain ,

00:34.110 --> 00:35.832
um , temperatures , all that .

00:40.069 --> 00:42.180
Shooting the weapons there was , uh ,

00:42.180 --> 00:44.291
it was good . Um , it was cool to see

00:44.291 --> 00:46.513
what weapons they use , how they differ

00:46.513 --> 00:48.680
from RMor . Um , seems to have 3 round

00:48.680 --> 00:50.680
burst as opposed to fully automatic

00:50.680 --> 00:53.013
rifles , so that was interesting to see .

00:54.409 --> 00:56.889
Right one right in the center . The

00:56.889 --> 00:58.611
multinational aspect of Arctic

00:58.611 --> 01:00.611
forcesparing because we do a lot of

01:00.611 --> 01:02.889
training um on uh things that we don't

01:02.889 --> 01:05.169
do back and forth drum shooting

01:05.169 --> 01:07.889
different kinds of weapons and learning

01:07.889 --> 01:10.489
about different COPs and um just

01:10.489 --> 01:12.730
procedures of different uh

01:12.730 --> 01:14.008
nationalities armies .

01:18.110 --> 01:20.110
They're well versed in the Arctic .

01:20.110 --> 01:22.054
They're familiar with the snow and

01:22.054 --> 01:24.054
they're familiar with skiing . Um ,

01:24.054 --> 01:26.388
they're familiar with this terrain , uh ,

01:26.388 --> 01:28.221
their entire lives . Um , that's

01:28.221 --> 01:30.277
different than , than our soldiers .

01:30.277 --> 01:30.139
Our soldiers come from all over ,

01:30.150 --> 01:32.206
obviously . Some soldiers have never

01:32.206 --> 01:34.372
seen snow before they get posted up to

01:34.372 --> 01:36.980
Alaska . We go .

01:39.400 --> 01:42.000
As an NCO , um , everything I learned

01:42.000 --> 01:44.319
here I can spread that knowledge to my

01:44.319 --> 01:47.269
soldiers back , uh , back in drum , um ,

01:47.440 --> 01:49.662
to make them better , better soldiers ,

01:49.662 --> 01:51.773
better leaders also look at the other

01:51.773 --> 01:53.829
nationalities , see how they , their

01:53.829 --> 01:56.000
NCO core , how it works , just getting

01:56.000 --> 01:59.949
knowledge from them . That's

01:59.949 --> 02:01.750
why And then calm down ,

02:03.919 --> 02:04.389
get up .
