WEBVTT

00:00.440 --> 00:03.960
mhm . is also fucking last clapping

00:05.550 --> 00:07.661
Jeanette google's with philosophers ,

00:07.661 --> 00:10.240
guy . Like

00:13.440 --> 00:16.860
for your . Have a cold

00:18.240 --> 00:19.560
due to loss of

00:22.440 --> 00:23.460
guys . Hey ,

00:38.840 --> 00:42.050
okay , let's go .

00:49.540 --> 00:50.760
Mm hmm .

00:58.240 --> 00:59.240
Mhm .

01:08.940 --> 01:10.440
Yeah . Yeah .

01:16.840 --> 01:18.900
So Operation Caribbean Urban Warrior

01:18.900 --> 01:21.360
takes place once a year and it consists

01:21.360 --> 01:23.790
of a second recon training in Aruba

01:23.790 --> 01:25.790
with the dutch and also the dutch ,

01:25.790 --> 01:27.679
marines coming here to train with

01:27.679 --> 01:26.580
second .

01:31.840 --> 01:35.520
So this training between the

01:35.520 --> 01:37.631
32nd rating squadron and second recon

01:37.631 --> 01:39.187
is designed to increase our

01:39.187 --> 01:41.242
interoperability with foreign forces

01:41.242 --> 01:43.353
and also increase vitality for both .

01:43.353 --> 01:43.060
You know ?

01:48.240 --> 01:50.890
Mhm . Uh

01:50.890 --> 01:53.350
huh .

01:55.140 --> 01:57.196
So first we started training here on

01:57.196 --> 01:59.307
section level just to be refreshments

01:59.307 --> 02:01.473
and then we traded went to troop level

02:01.740 --> 02:03.907
with troop level . Training , engaging

02:03.907 --> 02:06.620
in low and high uses of force and now

02:06.620 --> 02:08.787
we're training squadron level . So all

02:08.787 --> 02:10.787
the troops are working together and

02:10.787 --> 02:13.750
also embedded with second recon . Mm

02:22.340 --> 02:24.507
Well , I think prioritizing especially

02:24.507 --> 02:26.390
in big operations is where our

02:26.400 --> 02:28.456
friendlies because especially in the

02:28.456 --> 02:30.678
village , when the fighting do kick off

02:30.678 --> 02:32.678
and you go on multiple angles , you

02:32.678 --> 02:34.900
always have to take care of the rest of

02:34.900 --> 02:37.122
your body's like where they are , where

02:37.122 --> 02:39.233
they're moving . So the communication

02:39.233 --> 02:39.190
especially amount of is really

02:39.200 --> 02:41.500
important to know where everybody is at

02:41.500 --> 02:42.760
all the time .

02:45.640 --> 02:49.460
Mhm mhm mhm .

02:56.940 --> 02:57.750
Things go

03:02.440 --> 03:04.850
okay . Mhm .

03:06.940 --> 03:08.996
Fighting patrols are , we know where

03:08.996 --> 03:11.051
the enemy is and we're going to take

03:11.051 --> 03:13.218
them out and the rate , it's basically

03:13.218 --> 03:15.440
a fast in and out operation to take the

03:15.440 --> 03:17.607
enemy out as quickly as possible to be

03:17.607 --> 03:21.170
on our way . Mhm Sit there in the

03:21.170 --> 03:24.560
morning face the wall . Mhm So

03:25.340 --> 03:27.150
mm mhm

03:29.840 --> 03:30.840
mhm .

03:36.840 --> 03:39.007
Especially in the Caribbean , it's not

03:39.007 --> 03:41.300
always a job to go fighting first . We

03:41.300 --> 03:43.356
also have to do humanitarian aid and

03:43.356 --> 03:45.467
help people after disaster relief and

03:45.467 --> 03:47.578
stuff . It's good to train it here to

03:47.578 --> 03:50.030
start a patrol . Uh not low ready but

03:50.040 --> 03:52.151
low . We talked to people we feel the

03:52.151 --> 03:54.207
situation out . Hard to live in . Do

03:54.207 --> 03:56.429
they have water fuel things to brighten

03:56.429 --> 03:58.540
up their life ? And from there we can

03:58.540 --> 04:00.707
always put it more kinetic ALS So when

04:00.707 --> 04:02.873
an enemy engages us we can engage them

04:02.873 --> 04:05.420
with the right amount of force that

04:05.430 --> 04:07.480
need to be used to take the enemy

04:07.480 --> 04:11.250
out .

04:12.540 --> 04:13.540
Mm .

04:16.440 --> 04:20.040
Yes . Yes . Yes . Yeah .

04:20.640 --> 04:22.751
Well the emergency training for us is

04:22.751 --> 04:24.807
real special because you can see all

04:24.807 --> 04:27.090
the tactics and all the mistakes are

04:27.090 --> 04:29.146
all the good things you did with all

04:29.146 --> 04:31.368
the cameras in it . So for us it's real

04:31.368 --> 04:33.479
good training . The first part in the

04:33.479 --> 04:35.534
emergency room it was going with low

04:35.534 --> 04:37.423
force . So we have to talk to the

04:37.423 --> 04:39.423
people . As soon as we got in there

04:39.423 --> 04:41.312
were 20 people running through us

04:41.312 --> 04:43.368
screaming for help in Spanish and it

04:43.368 --> 04:45.423
kind of didn't stop from there . But

04:45.423 --> 04:47.534
everybody's like whoa , we're back at

04:47.534 --> 04:49.368
it again . And from there we had

04:49.368 --> 04:51.590
attacks from multiple sides . Yeah from

04:51.590 --> 04:53.757
there we enrolled our operation . It's

04:53.757 --> 04:55.757
always good to see how your marines

04:55.757 --> 04:57.979
react , how they take their cover , how

04:57.979 --> 04:59.979
they flagged their positions and if

04:59.979 --> 05:02.201
they don't you can see it straight back

05:02.201 --> 05:04.090
on camera . So yeah , we had good

05:04.090 --> 05:06.423
training . They're good learning points .

05:06.423 --> 05:07.923
Good base for the future .

05:13.140 --> 05:15.362
You don't remember what you did wrong ,

05:15.362 --> 05:17.473
the cameras will tell you . So that's

05:17.473 --> 05:19.529
the way you can always see back when

05:19.529 --> 05:21.584
somebody did something wrong or when

05:21.584 --> 05:23.640
his rifle was in the wrong way or he

05:23.640 --> 05:25.862
wasn't paying enough attention . So the

05:25.862 --> 05:28.084
american trainer will really put you on

05:28.084 --> 05:30.140
your basic skills and drills and you

05:30.140 --> 05:30.040
can watch it back from there . So it's

05:30.040 --> 05:31.860
really good training for us .

05:33.840 --> 05:37.660
Okay . Mhm . Mhm .

05:38.940 --> 05:39.940
Mhm .

05:47.040 --> 05:50.410
Aruba is the same as curacao and Sint

05:50.410 --> 05:52.960
Maarten part of the Kingdom of the

05:52.960 --> 05:54.960
Netherlands , Kingdom of the

05:54.960 --> 05:57.071
Netherlands . We are providing safety

05:57.071 --> 05:59.450
and security on the islands . So we

05:59.840 --> 06:02.170
defend the islands in the Caribbean .

06:02.180 --> 06:04.480
And also we cooperate with the local

06:04.480 --> 06:07.250
government providing humanitarian .

06:07.260 --> 06:10.580
82 islands in that region . The

06:10.580 --> 06:13.010
relationship with the Dutch marines and

06:13.010 --> 06:15.550
the United States marines go back into

06:15.550 --> 06:19.140
the 19 forties . We started here in

06:19.150 --> 06:22.010
1943 in the Second World War , bringing

06:22.020 --> 06:24.930
thousands of Marines to Camp Davis to

06:24.940 --> 06:28.060
train them in basic infantry , trained

06:28.060 --> 06:30.040
officers at Quantico . The United

06:30.040 --> 06:32.340
States provide them with uniforms with

06:32.340 --> 06:35.080
weapons with instructors . And we train

06:35.080 --> 06:37.191
all those marines here before we ship

06:37.191 --> 06:38.969
them through the East Indies to

06:38.969 --> 06:41.900
participate in the Final States of the

06:41.910 --> 06:45.770
Second World War . Mm hmm , I'm not

06:45.770 --> 06:48.190
gonna use one word , I'm going to use

06:48.190 --> 06:50.640
two words I would say ready and

06:50.640 --> 06:53.050
relevant . Ready Because when something

06:53.050 --> 06:55.272
happens on the islands , they are ready

06:55.272 --> 06:57.740
to assist the local authorities and

06:57.740 --> 06:59.796
relevant because the work they do is

06:59.796 --> 07:01.710
very relevant . Think about

07:01.720 --> 07:04.360
humanitarian disaster that we had a

07:04.360 --> 07:06.650
couple of years ago on one of the

07:06.650 --> 07:08.761
islands . Then they did very relevant

07:08.761 --> 07:10.817
work . So I would say they are ready

07:10.817 --> 07:13.830
and they do relevant work . It was

07:13.830 --> 07:16.820
actually the first Foreign Marine Corps

07:16.830 --> 07:20.220
who started here at Camp Davis back in

07:20.220 --> 07:22.960
43 . So for the United States Marine

07:22.960 --> 07:25.410
Corps , they provide this training area

07:25.410 --> 07:28.760
and they invite foreign partners .

07:30.140 --> 07:32.870
United States provide touch with

07:32.880 --> 07:35.390
uniforms , weapons with all the

07:35.390 --> 07:37.446
techniques . So we provide the young

07:37.446 --> 07:39.668
marines and the United States Marine as

07:39.668 --> 07:42.350
a partner provide the dutch with their

07:42.740 --> 07:45.870
equipment and with a lot of instruction

07:45.880 --> 07:49.760
capacity and get ready

07:49.770 --> 07:53.530
for the fight in the East Indies . So

07:53.530 --> 07:55.308
they were shipped thousands and

07:55.308 --> 07:57.419
thousands of marines from here to the

07:57.419 --> 07:59.586
East in the East pacific area to fight

07:59.586 --> 08:01.641
next to the United States Marine and

08:01.641 --> 08:04.650
other allies as well . We sent out

08:05.440 --> 08:08.940
and unit back To participate

08:08.950 --> 08:12.590
in AD Day in 40 for landing on France

08:12.590 --> 08:15.910
ghost Before I comment on the

08:15.910 --> 08:18.077
relationship we have from the military

08:18.077 --> 08:20.670
side of the house , I'd like to mention

08:20.680 --> 08:23.150
President Ronald Reagan , who once said

08:24.440 --> 08:28.040
today Marks the 200th anniversary of

08:28.040 --> 08:29.818
the establishment of diplomatic

08:29.818 --> 08:33.230
relations between our countries . We're

08:33.230 --> 08:35.563
delighted that you want with your visit ,

08:35.563 --> 08:38.400
your majesty visit . The coincides with

08:38.410 --> 08:41.860
this history patient Between our two

08:41.870 --> 08:45.350
peoples who represents . Yes , peaceful

08:45.350 --> 08:49.280
relationship . Yeah . With any

08:49.280 --> 08:52.260
organization To be honest , I believe

08:52.270 --> 08:55.260
that we share the similar , similar

08:55.260 --> 08:57.260
feeling on the military side of the

08:57.260 --> 08:59.640
house . The relation goes back to 1943

08:59.640 --> 09:01.751
with the United States Marine Corps ,

09:01.751 --> 09:04.000
when we established a marine regiment ,

09:04.010 --> 09:07.120
and that Marine Regiment was going to

09:07.130 --> 09:09.320
take part in the final stage of World

09:09.320 --> 09:12.220
War II . But many ngos officers and

09:12.220 --> 09:15.310
marines were trained and equipped by

09:15.320 --> 09:17.320
members of the United States Marine

09:17.320 --> 09:19.560
Corps . So that is to start from a long

09:19.560 --> 09:22.270
lasting relation with the United States

09:22.270 --> 09:26.200
Marine Corps . We got black devils

09:26.200 --> 09:29.810
from our enemy Germans and 40

09:29.820 --> 09:32.610
when they invade europe and the

09:32.610 --> 09:34.332
Netherlands . The fault in the

09:34.332 --> 09:36.221
beginning of May , in Rotterdam ,

09:36.221 --> 09:39.240
Rotterdam is the capital or the city

09:39.250 --> 09:42.440
where the marines are based . So those

09:42.450 --> 09:45.070
young marines , Just a couple of weeks

09:45.540 --> 09:48.090
in the basic course in boot camp , I

09:48.110 --> 09:51.500
woke up and the

09:51.500 --> 09:54.210
Germans invade the Netherlands . And

09:54.210 --> 09:57.050
Rotterdam was the main city , the

09:57.050 --> 09:59.960
harbor with a lot of british , so those

09:59.960 --> 10:02.860
young marines gave heavy resistance

10:02.870 --> 10:06.840
against the Germans . It was all around

10:06.840 --> 10:09.000
several british , and the city of

10:09.000 --> 10:11.510
Rotterdam resistance was so heavy and

10:11.510 --> 10:14.120
Germans , I thought that there were

10:14.130 --> 10:16.460
companies battalions , where there were

10:16.460 --> 10:19.760
still several marines . Young marines

10:20.340 --> 10:23.800
have black , dark blue coats and helmet

10:23.810 --> 10:26.630
and weapons with some ammunition . And

10:26.630 --> 10:29.240
with that small amount of the basic

10:29.240 --> 10:31.880
course they had , they gave so much

10:31.880 --> 10:34.250
resistance to the older Germans at the

10:34.250 --> 10:36.970
other side of the river . So when the

10:36.970 --> 10:38.910
Netherlands decided after the

10:38.920 --> 10:41.420
bombardments of the city to say okay ,

10:41.420 --> 10:43.710
we waved the white flag , those couple

10:43.710 --> 10:46.270
of marines in black coats with a helmet

10:46.270 --> 10:48.750
and their weapons came out the areas

10:48.750 --> 10:51.510
where they defended the british and

10:51.510 --> 10:53.550
we're just a couple of them . And

10:53.550 --> 10:55.772
that's the reason why the Germans say ,

10:55.772 --> 10:57.939
okay , that was that was so horrible !

10:57.939 --> 11:00.600
Those are black devils . So it goes

11:00.600 --> 11:03.020
back to the black coats and resistance

11:03.030 --> 11:05.360
and what the marines fought for .

11:14.140 --> 11:17.060
Uh huh . We had an infield by foot

11:17.060 --> 11:19.060
through the , through the woods and

11:19.060 --> 11:21.227
from there we had to raid a building .

11:21.227 --> 11:23.449
So we did the rate from the forest into

11:23.449 --> 11:25.616
the buildings . From there , we took a

11:25.616 --> 11:27.504
stronghold from a stronghold . We

11:27.504 --> 11:29.727
assess the situation in the rest of the

11:29.727 --> 11:31.893
village . From there . We took out any

11:31.893 --> 11:34.150
enemy threat area .

11:36.940 --> 11:39.960
We're both used to working in small

11:39.960 --> 11:43.160
teams of , you know , 68 10 guys . And

11:43.160 --> 11:45.290
it's interesting to see how another

11:45.290 --> 11:47.457
country foreign military operates with

11:47.457 --> 11:49.512
similar sized teams , similar jobs ,

11:49.512 --> 11:51.568
that similar mission sets and it's a

11:51.568 --> 11:53.512
great opportunity for us to bounce

11:53.512 --> 11:56.750
ideas off each other . Yeah . Mm

11:59.340 --> 12:02.860
Yeah . Once the question of mount

12:02.870 --> 12:05.092
revolve around a small teams ability to

12:05.092 --> 12:07.850
work well with each other . Mhm .

12:10.040 --> 12:13.170
Mhm . Look , the team has the ability

12:13.170 --> 12:15.010
to take initiative and read each

12:15.010 --> 12:17.066
other's actions from the battlefield

12:17.066 --> 12:18.399
will be very successful

12:21.140 --> 12:22.860
move . Yeah .

12:27.040 --> 12:29.050
Yeah . Mhm .

12:35.940 --> 12:38.150
We do . Mhm .

12:42.840 --> 12:44.860
In the base of our jobs our job is

12:44.870 --> 12:47.092

12:47.092 --> 12:49.092
see how they do it and how we do it

12:49.092 --> 12:51.203
just to learn from each other and see

12:51.203 --> 12:53.314
what problems we have , what problems

12:53.314 --> 12:55.314
they have and how we overcome those

12:55.314 --> 12:57.481
problems to have a good operation . So

12:57.481 --> 12:57.400

12:57.400 --> 12:59.400
ways . So we learn from them . They
