00:05.050 --> 00:07.880
We are at Guardian response 23 . And

00:07.889 --> 00:10.000
part of this exercise is to make sure

00:10.000 --> 00:12.222
that we can get all of our equipment to

00:12.222 --> 00:14.389
the point of need in a timely manner .

00:14.389 --> 00:16.611
So we are participating in the national

00:16.611 --> 00:18.500
planning scenario one which is an

00:18.500 --> 00:20.611
improvised nuclear device explosion .

00:20.611 --> 00:22.833
This is an all compo exercise , meaning

00:22.833 --> 00:24.889
active duty , National Guard and the

00:24.889 --> 00:26.833
Army Reserves within task force 76

00:26.833 --> 00:29.120
which is us , there's 338 soldiers on

00:29.129 --> 00:31.185
the ground with five units . We have

00:31.185 --> 00:33.351
pre monitor team come in and check the

00:33.351 --> 00:35.518
scenario before we go down . The black

00:35.518 --> 00:39.009
suit is meant for a level B which is a

00:39.180 --> 00:41.347
contaminant which you're worried about

00:42.369 --> 00:46.069
spills and the blue suit is a

00:46.080 --> 00:49.950
level A and it has the S C

00:49.959 --> 00:52.970
B A inside of it and it's our highest

00:52.979 --> 00:55.500
level of protection . We have a

00:55.509 --> 00:58.139
reconnaissance element capability and

00:58.150 --> 01:00.206
also a mass casualty decontamination

01:00.206 --> 01:02.372
capability as well . So if there is an

01:02.372 --> 01:05.000
attack in the homeland , for example ,

01:05.010 --> 01:07.629
a nuclear attack and we are there to

01:07.639 --> 01:10.730
support and save lives and mitigate

01:10.739 --> 01:13.260
human suffering . So we are here to do

01:13.269 --> 01:16.059
decontamination efforts for the masses

01:16.069 --> 01:18.169
and also perform reconnaissance

01:18.180 --> 01:19.139
operations as well .
