1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,330
I'm Captain Chuck Valenza . I'm a 

2
00:00:02,330 --> 00:00:04,497
communications officer on Marine Corps 

3
00:00:04,497 --> 00:00:06,497
Air Station Huma , and I'm with the 

4
00:00:06,497 --> 00:00:08,719
Marine Corps Air Station human shooting 

5
00:00:08,719 --> 00:00:08,710
team . So today we're shooting the 

6
00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:10,831
competition and arms program . Marine 

7
00:00:10,831 --> 00:00:12,942
Corps Marksmanship Competition West . 

8
00:00:12,942 --> 00:00:15,164
It's a competition put on by the Marine 

9
00:00:15,164 --> 00:00:17,070
Corps shooting team , where units 

10
00:00:17,070 --> 00:00:19,770
pulled together 4 to 5 man teams where 

11
00:00:19,770 --> 00:00:21,714
they compete in rifle and kissed . 

12
00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:25,751
So the purpose of the competition and 

13
00:00:25,751 --> 00:00:27,529
arms program is to build on the 

14
00:00:27,529 --> 00:00:29,529
foundations of the Marine Corps and 

15
00:00:29,529 --> 00:00:31,362
steals on each Marine and , uh , 

16
00:00:31,362 --> 00:00:33,418
increase the overall legality of the 

17
00:00:33,418 --> 00:00:35,529
fleet . Marine Force Marines can take 

18
00:00:35,529 --> 00:00:37,640
what they learn here today , um , and 

19
00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:39,862
bring it back to the units . And if you 

20
00:00:39,862 --> 00:00:41,862
like that in their training plans , 

21
00:00:42,180 --> 00:00:44,013
their constraints built into the 

22
00:00:44,013 --> 00:00:46,236
massage , which will induce friction on 

23
00:00:46,236 --> 00:00:48,460
each of these Marines . And with that 

24
00:00:48,470 --> 00:00:50,650
they will be forced to kind of playing 

25
00:00:50,650 --> 00:00:52,817
around how they're going to beat those 

26
00:00:52,817 --> 00:00:54,594
and overcome those restraints . 

27
00:00:56,740 --> 00:01:00,670
Mhm , yeah , n a stressful 

28
00:01:00,670 --> 00:01:02,948
environment . Things really go to plan , 

29
00:01:02,948 --> 00:01:04,892
and Marines are forced to adapt to 

30
00:01:04,892 --> 00:01:06,781
their mistakes . Uh , in order to 

31
00:01:06,781 --> 00:01:09,114
complete stage with a competitive score , 

32
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:12,060
this event not only develops Marines 

33
00:01:12,060 --> 00:01:14,060
who are more effective manipulating 

34
00:01:14,060 --> 00:01:16,116
their weapons , but also strengthens 

35
00:01:16,116 --> 00:01:18,338
their ability to overcome adversity and 

36
00:01:18,338 --> 00:01:18,260
time compressed environment . Yeah ,
