00:00.500 --> 00:01.350
- The Hawaii National Guard

00:01.350 --> 00:02.610
State Partnership Program

00:02.610 --> 00:05.110
recently facilitated an
exchange between candidates

00:05.110 --> 00:06.510
from the Indonesian Military,

00:06.510 --> 00:08.290
and the University of Hawaii's Reserve

00:08.290 --> 00:09.620
Officer Training Core.

00:09.620 --> 00:11.480
Along with the Hawaii National Guard's

00:11.480 --> 00:13.190
Officers Candidate School.

00:13.190 --> 00:14.360
The state partnership program

00:14.360 --> 00:15.930
is a department of the defense program

00:15.930 --> 00:17.980
that is managed by the National Guard.

00:17.980 --> 00:19.570
The program's goal is to cultivate

00:19.570 --> 00:21.000
an enduring relationship

00:21.000 --> 00:22.620
that enhances regional stability

00:22.620 --> 00:23.803
and influence.

00:24.890 --> 00:27.020
- So some of the goals
for today's exercise

00:27.020 --> 00:30.090
was to evaluate the leadership potential

00:30.090 --> 00:35.090
of officer candidates for ROTC,

00:35.120 --> 00:36.450
OCS and the Indonesia Army.

00:36.450 --> 00:38.610
We'll all here tryin' to become officers.

00:38.610 --> 00:39.870
- During the week long exchange

00:39.870 --> 00:41.180
the Indonesia Officer candidates

00:41.180 --> 00:43.210
participated in training
along side candidates

00:43.210 --> 00:46.190
from UH and Hawaii
National Guard programs.

00:46.190 --> 00:48.220
They review basic squad maneuvers,

00:48.220 --> 00:50.110
learned how to load and unload a squad

00:50.110 --> 00:51.630
out of a Black Hawk helicopter,

00:51.630 --> 00:53.160
and were put through the paces

00:53.160 --> 00:55.395
in a culminating three
day training exercise

00:55.395 --> 00:57.426
that included various hold-up techniques,

00:57.426 --> 00:59.309
operational lanes with a attack

00:59.309 --> 01:00.211
and counter attack,
(woman speaking)

01:00.211 --> 01:01.870
and a land navigation exercise.

01:01.870 --> 01:03.430
(women speaking)

01:03.430 --> 01:04.900
- So with this training

01:04.900 --> 01:09.900
I definitely gained other
ways to do these six lanes,

01:10.040 --> 01:11.267
of course, I'm an OCS and ROTC,

01:11.267 --> 01:12.980
we're taught differently,

01:12.980 --> 01:15.340
so it was good to see different ways

01:15.340 --> 01:18.050
how you can approach a lane

01:18.050 --> 01:20.430
when your doing your op orders,

01:20.430 --> 01:23.232
and briefs, and everyone's
different methods.

01:23.232 --> 01:24.120
- [Women] Uniform.

01:24.120 --> 01:25.710
- This is Tech Sergeant Andrew Lee Jackson

01:25.710 --> 01:28.093
reporting with Hawaii National Guard.
