1 00:00:01,550 --> 00:00:05,440 hands on your home duties . Thank 2 00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:06,551 you for giving me . 3 00:00:06,551 --> 00:00:12,150 Oh , 4 00:00:18,140 --> 00:00:20,330 E . 5 00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:27,300 Today we have the Marine Corps 6 00:00:27,300 --> 00:00:29,770 Marksmanship Competition Pacific , part 7 00:00:29,770 --> 00:00:31,992 of the competition in arms program , or 8 00:00:31,992 --> 00:00:34,048 CIA . The purpose of the Competition 9 00:00:34,048 --> 00:00:36,270 Arms program is to enhance marksmanship 10 00:00:36,270 --> 00:00:38,381 through competition across the Marine 11 00:00:38,381 --> 00:00:40,270 Corps in order to increase combat 12 00:00:40,270 --> 00:00:42,159 effectiveness and lethality . The 13 00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:44,103 importance of the Competition Arms 14 00:00:44,103 --> 00:00:46,326 program is that it provides an advanced 15 00:00:46,326 --> 00:00:48,214 level of training that reinforces 16 00:00:48,214 --> 00:00:50,326 marksmanship fundamentals and engages 17 00:00:50,326 --> 00:00:52,437 the Marines and healthy competition . 18 00:00:52,437 --> 00:00:54,326 Uh , Marines don't go into battle 19 00:00:54,326 --> 00:00:56,548 thinking that they're gonna lose . They 20 00:00:56,548 --> 00:00:59,320 go to win . And this competition is 21 00:00:59,330 --> 00:01:01,570 something that's gonna be applicable to 22 00:01:01,570 --> 00:01:03,670 the warfighter . So the only thing 23 00:01:03,670 --> 00:01:05,448 we're really doing here is just 24 00:01:05,448 --> 00:01:07,003 advanced implication of the 25 00:01:07,003 --> 00:01:09,226 fundamentals . We're not doing anything 26 00:01:09,226 --> 00:01:08,750 super fancy . It's just a lot of 27 00:01:09,140 --> 00:01:11,550 repetition . And we kinda use doctrine 28 00:01:11,550 --> 00:01:13,630 as a backbone . But it's just like a 29 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:15,751 map that gives you the foundation but 30 00:01:15,751 --> 00:01:17,807 doesn't necessarily teach you how to 31 00:01:17,807 --> 00:01:19,696 fight . We're kind of in the same 32 00:01:19,696 --> 00:01:21,696 business where we take the doctrine 33 00:01:21,696 --> 00:01:20,950 that teaches you how to shoot , and we 34 00:01:20,950 --> 00:01:23,061 really implemented and get you really 35 00:01:23,061 --> 00:01:25,006 comfortable and confident with the 36 00:01:25,006 --> 00:01:26,950 weapons system . Shooter , are you 37 00:01:26,950 --> 00:01:29,080 ready standby 38 00:01:48,740 --> 00:01:52,550 16 8 to Are you So some of the 39 00:01:52,550 --> 00:01:54,717 different things we're learning here , 40 00:01:54,717 --> 00:01:56,828 besides the things we learned in like 41 00:01:56,828 --> 00:01:59,050 an annual rifle training setting , is a 42 00:01:59,050 --> 00:02:01,161 little bit more Connecticut . Arrange 43 00:02:01,161 --> 00:02:03,383 your learning more about footwork , how 44 00:02:03,383 --> 00:02:03,170 to get good foot placement as you move 45 00:02:03,170 --> 00:02:05,281 into a stage and not preparing before 46 00:02:05,281 --> 00:02:07,281 you shoot . Moving to a position to 47 00:02:07,281 --> 00:02:09,114 shoot and establishing that good 48 00:02:09,114 --> 00:02:11,226 position quickly so you can get those 49 00:02:11,226 --> 00:02:13,392 accurate shots off . I would recommend 50 00:02:13,392 --> 00:02:15,337 this train to anybody who wants to 51 00:02:15,337 --> 00:02:17,337 become a better kinetic shooter . I 52 00:02:17,337 --> 00:02:16,850 think that's one of the most important 53 00:02:16,850 --> 00:02:19,072 things that we're learning out here . I 54 00:02:19,072 --> 00:02:21,239 think it's important for Marines to be 55 00:02:21,239 --> 00:02:23,406 able to go from position to position , 56 00:02:23,406 --> 00:02:25,406 acquire that good shooting platform 57 00:02:25,406 --> 00:02:27,683 quickly and deliver that accurate fire . 58 00:02:27,683 --> 00:02:29,683 And I really think that doing these 59 00:02:29,683 --> 00:02:31,906 competitions gives you that opportunity 60 00:02:31,906 --> 00:02:34,017 to think under pressure . Concentrate 61 00:02:34,017 --> 00:02:36,072 on your footwork and you're shooting 62 00:02:36,072 --> 00:02:38,183 stance on , then really focus on that 63 00:02:38,183 --> 00:02:37,570 trigger control . So you're taking all 64 00:02:37,570 --> 00:02:39,910 the dynamics that you need from a 65 00:02:39,910 --> 00:02:42,330 standardized marksmanship method on 66 00:02:42,340 --> 00:02:44,396 inserting it into a kinetic shooting 67 00:02:44,396 --> 00:02:46,618 method on its good to merge those two . 68 00:02:46,618 --> 00:02:48,451 That way , you're a well rounded 69 00:02:48,451 --> 00:02:50,507 shooter In a more effective Marine . 70 00:02:50,507 --> 00:02:50,070 Hey ,
