00:07.269 --> 00:10.039
So we came out to Hawaii because it

00:10.050 --> 00:13.840
offers us coastal tropical

00:13.850 --> 00:16.959
and jungle biomes which allow us to

00:16.969 --> 00:20.079
provide our personnel with training in

00:20.090 --> 00:22.870
all of those areas . And so we wanted

00:22.879 --> 00:25.101
to give them that hands on training and

00:25.101 --> 00:27.435
see the difference in their performance .

00:27.435 --> 00:29.379
So we had a control group who were

00:29.379 --> 00:31.323
flying crew chiefs to see how they

00:31.323 --> 00:33.860
performed before and after training SV

00:33.869 --> 00:36.819
97 brand new co pilots who have had

00:36.830 --> 00:39.340
only that training , not even the OSS

00:39.349 --> 00:41.750
training yet to provide that out here

00:41.759 --> 00:44.110
for them in this environment . And then

00:44.119 --> 00:46.959
we also provided the S V 98 from the

00:46.970 --> 00:48.914
rescue squadron training as well .

00:50.470 --> 00:52.650
And the difference in performance was

00:52.659 --> 00:54.826
measured before and after the training

00:54.826 --> 00:57.200
for all of them . And we are able to

00:57.290 --> 00:59.880
demonstrate basically that they're

00:59.889 --> 01:02.000
going to be a lot more capable after

01:02.009 --> 01:04.120
this training than they were before .

01:05.319 --> 01:07.430
There's a lot of support out here for

01:07.430 --> 01:10.119
future operations to allow us to spread

01:10.128 --> 01:12.319
this to other bases , other platforms

01:12.329 --> 01:14.551
so that they can do this as well to get

01:14.551 --> 01:16.496
their airmen more prepared for the

01:16.496 --> 01:18.218
environment that they may find

01:18.218 --> 01:19.149
themselves isolated in
