1
00:00:02,840 --> 00:00:05,550
mhm Mm . 

2
00:00:07,140 --> 00:00:09,370
A V Gunnery is an art form that's 

3
00:00:09,370 --> 00:00:11,148
practiced throughout the year , 

4
00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:14,450
starting with weapons functionality , 

5
00:00:14,460 --> 00:00:16,750
working with their crews , then going 

6
00:00:16,760 --> 00:00:20,010
to a range conducting dry fire range is 

7
00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:22,350
and then live fire ranges for 

8
00:00:22,350 --> 00:00:24,520
qualification in a controlled 

9
00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:27,230
environment . So the biggest thing that 

10
00:00:27,230 --> 00:00:30,130
I'm looking for in the evaluation 

11
00:00:30,130 --> 00:00:32,850
process is how fast that they're 

12
00:00:32,850 --> 00:00:35,370
getting on target and being effective 

13
00:00:35,370 --> 00:00:37,426
with their weapons systems and being 

14
00:00:37,426 --> 00:00:39,314
able to transition to our primary 

15
00:00:39,314 --> 00:00:41,426
weapon system , which is Mark 19 . To 

16
00:00:41,426 --> 00:00:43,370
be able to ultimately destroy that 

17
00:00:43,370 --> 00:00:45,650
enemy before we have to push up and 

18
00:00:45,740 --> 00:00:47,800
dismounted infantry to go through an 

19
00:00:47,810 --> 00:00:49,421
assault through an objective 

20
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:54,410
with the vehicles , the ice being 

21
00:00:54,410 --> 00:00:56,466
underneath the snow was difficult to 

22
00:00:56,466 --> 00:00:58,688
get up some roads . The Marines learned 

23
00:00:58,688 --> 00:01:00,854
that they couldn't just drive straight 

24
00:01:00,854 --> 00:01:03,021
up a road or straight up a hill . They 

25
00:01:03,021 --> 00:01:04,410
had to somewhat zigzag . 

26
00:01:07,140 --> 00:01:08,140
Okay , 

27
00:01:12,340 --> 00:01:12,540
yeah ,
