00:05.467 --> 00:07.390
- Today we're down at
Pinon Canyon Maneuver Site.

00:07.390 --> 00:11.410
We flew down here and did
an infil with the team.

00:11.410 --> 00:14.200
And the other team was
on another objective, so.

00:14.200 --> 00:15.990
What we're doing is trying to hone in

00:15.990 --> 00:18.560
on our AWTs and AWD skills.

00:18.560 --> 00:20.820
This is pertinent to just maintaining

00:20.820 --> 00:22.860
the overall total soldier concept.

00:22.860 --> 00:27.010
- We conducted rehearsals
yesterday at the RTI.

00:27.010 --> 00:29.990
We coordinated air movement with aviation.

00:29.990 --> 00:31.840
So we conducted some aircraft 101,

00:31.840 --> 00:34.000
some medivac 101 training with aviation

00:34.000 --> 00:34.833
- [Soldier] Lift.

00:34.833 --> 00:37.060
- [LT Wiley] at Butts
Army Airfield yesterday.

00:37.060 --> 00:39.160
This morning we loaded up onto

00:39.160 --> 00:41.810
the second and 135th
Black Hawk helicopters,

00:41.810 --> 00:43.680
flew down here to training area 10,

00:43.680 --> 00:48.403
and conducted some
squad-on-squad assaults,

00:49.410 --> 00:53.990
and in order to practice
those basic soldier skills.

00:53.990 --> 00:57.340
- We're soldiers 24/7 so,
there is a possibility

00:57.340 --> 00:59.060
as air defenders that we can be called up

00:59.060 --> 01:00.930
to do a frontlines mission in the future.

01:00.930 --> 01:03.630
We also can always go to different units,

01:03.630 --> 01:05.660
so we have to maintain
a level of readiness

01:05.660 --> 01:07.070
that's good enough not just for us

01:07.070 --> 01:08.050
but for the rest of the army,

01:08.050 --> 01:09.700
so we can go fill in at any spot.
