00:29.389 --> 00:31.611
Exercise Thunder Wolf is an opportunity

00:31.611 --> 00:33.833
for the two units to come together . We

00:33.833 --> 00:36.000
brought the whole unit and uh we spent

00:36.000 --> 00:38.222
about a week , uh , learning together ,

00:38.222 --> 00:40.111
training together , uh , bleeding

00:40.111 --> 00:41.833
together , sweating together .

00:44.450 --> 00:46.720
We go and try to find the uh the best

00:46.720 --> 00:49.053
units we can find to train with uh they ,

00:49.169 --> 00:51.336
they teach us how to do stuff we teach

00:51.336 --> 00:53.669
them how to do stuff , um , and it just ,

00:53.669 --> 00:55.836
it just makes everybody better uh when

00:55.836 --> 00:59.259
we come together . All parts of our of

00:59.259 --> 01:01.481
our squadron get tested uh when we come

01:01.481 --> 01:02.481
out here .

01:12.190 --> 01:15.230
We bring in Seaburn 4 with security

01:15.230 --> 01:17.709
forces AE that brings a level of

01:17.709 --> 01:19.820
realness that we don't get when we're

01:19.820 --> 01:21.320
doing peacetime workload .

01:24.360 --> 01:26.527
We , we try to push people to the , to

01:26.527 --> 01:28.582
the limits , um , to , to build that

01:28.582 --> 01:30.693
excellence into our teams . You don't

01:30.693 --> 01:32.693
get a second chance when you're out

01:32.693 --> 01:35.309
there . Every aspect of these types of

01:35.309 --> 01:38.419
exercises help develop that mindset for

01:38.599 --> 01:40.432
getting ready for a deployment .

01:49.089 --> 01:51.256
We're able to stress them a little bit

01:51.730 --> 01:53.897
to see how they react . They learn how

01:53.897 --> 01:56.008
they'll react and then they can build

01:56.008 --> 01:58.119
some confidence after they go through

01:58.119 --> 01:58.089
some training to see how they're

01:58.089 --> 02:00.367
supposed to deal with those situations .

02:00.367 --> 02:02.200
So this this type of training is

02:02.200 --> 02:04.311
invaluable from getting it out sooner

02:04.311 --> 02:06.709
than the day . You sit back and you

02:06.709 --> 02:08.820
look at the formation of everybody at

02:08.820 --> 02:10.931
all the different areas and you can't

02:10.931 --> 02:13.098
tell where the 205 begins and the 2/10

02:13.098 --> 02:15.098
stops . They're , they're , they're

02:15.098 --> 02:17.098
just one group . That right there ,

02:17.098 --> 02:19.098
that's invaluable . That's gonna be

02:19.098 --> 02:21.320
what sets us up for success when , when

02:21.320 --> 02:21.369
we get downrange .
