1
00:00:01,440 --> 00:00:03,670
mm hmm . Down here in Djibouti , we're 

2
00:00:03,670 --> 00:00:05,837
gonna be here supporting any assets on 

3
00:00:05,837 --> 00:00:07,960
the ground . Uh , pretty much bring 

4
00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:10,127
them from Point A to point B quickly , 

5
00:00:10,127 --> 00:00:12,710
a lot faster than others . Nothing to 

6
00:00:12,710 --> 00:00:15,720
travel , just helping out getting them 

7
00:00:15,730 --> 00:00:17,841
where they need to go and then , uh , 

8
00:00:17,841 --> 00:00:19,730
in the event somebody needs to be 

9
00:00:19,730 --> 00:00:21,897
picked up and get them out of the zone 

10
00:00:21,897 --> 00:00:24,008
quickly , get the fact that somewhere 

11
00:00:24,008 --> 00:00:27,210
they can be taken care of what I think 

12
00:00:27,210 --> 00:00:29,430
kind of different and trained with the 

13
00:00:29,430 --> 00:00:32,110
Marine Corps was overcoming the 

14
00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:33,960
differences in terminology and 

15
00:00:33,970 --> 00:00:36,350
communication techniques and um , 

16
00:00:36,940 --> 00:00:40,650
ground tactics . Once we kind of bridge 

17
00:00:40,650 --> 00:00:42,870
those kind of communication gaps and 

18
00:00:42,870 --> 00:00:46,180
tactical gaps , we basically figured 

19
00:00:46,180 --> 00:00:48,236
out that we had a lot more in common 

20
00:00:48,236 --> 00:00:50,013
than we had that separated us . 

21
00:00:53,340 --> 00:00:55,860
It was good just to get them used to 

22
00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:57,953
and comfortable with loading and 

23
00:00:57,953 --> 00:01:00,176
offloading a plane in his own . Whether 

24
00:01:00,176 --> 00:01:02,287
that be in the middle of nowhere , in 

25
00:01:02,287 --> 00:01:04,231
some mountains or middle of desert 

26
00:01:04,231 --> 00:01:06,342
where they get off the plane there in 

27
00:01:06,342 --> 00:01:08,453
the middle of a dust cloud and having 

28
00:01:08,453 --> 00:01:10,676
them figure out what they need to do to 

29
00:01:10,676 --> 00:01:10,290
get to the zone , set up a perimeter 

30
00:01:10,740 --> 00:01:12,851
and then , uh , when the time comes , 

31
00:01:12,851 --> 00:01:15,018
get back on the plane and have a hasty 

32
00:01:15,018 --> 00:01:16,129
demarcation process 

33
00:01:19,140 --> 00:01:21,362
flying in the Osprey for the first time 

34
00:01:21,362 --> 00:01:23,584
was awesome . I , you know , I've flown 

35
00:01:23,584 --> 00:01:25,807
on helicopters and flown on traditional 

36
00:01:25,807 --> 00:01:28,084
airplanes . First time on a tilt rotor , 

37
00:01:28,084 --> 00:01:30,251
I was surprised at how smooth it was , 

38
00:01:30,251 --> 00:01:32,362
but also how powerful it was . It was 

39
00:01:32,362 --> 00:01:34,980
awesome . It's all different experience 

40
00:01:34,980 --> 00:01:36,980
levels that we're dealing with . So 

41
00:01:36,980 --> 00:01:38,591
it's good to get a different 

42
00:01:38,591 --> 00:01:40,591
perspective on things and different 

43
00:01:40,591 --> 00:01:43,290
ideas as well , just how two different 

44
00:01:43,290 --> 00:01:45,401
branches go about operating and their 

45
00:01:45,401 --> 00:01:47,346
tactics involved in that operation 

46
00:01:47,346 --> 00:01:49,401
process . And we always welcome that 

47
00:01:49,401 --> 00:01:51,512
some people might do it differently . 

48
00:01:51,512 --> 00:01:53,512
But when we combine those different 

49
00:01:53,512 --> 00:01:55,568
tactics and techniques and it really 

50
00:01:55,568 --> 00:01:57,734
all comes together , this makes us all 

51
00:01:57,734 --> 00:01:56,500
better as a whole .
