1
00:00:00,540 --> 00:00:01,460
mhm mm hmm . 

2
00:00:12,340 --> 00:00:16,330
Mhm mm 

3
00:00:16,330 --> 00:00:19,710
hmm , mm hmm . Yeah . And Lieutenant 

4
00:00:19,710 --> 00:00:21,432
Colonel Jason potter . I'm the 

5
00:00:21,432 --> 00:00:23,377
commanding officer of the mm to 66 

6
00:00:23,377 --> 00:00:25,599
Fighting griffins really , we had three 

7
00:00:25,599 --> 00:00:27,432
goals for deployment . First was 

8
00:00:27,432 --> 00:00:29,321
operating in a high altitude cold 

9
00:00:29,321 --> 00:00:30,988
weather environment . Mac tap 

10
00:00:30,988 --> 00:00:33,154
integration with H . M . L . 8 to 69 . 

11
00:00:33,154 --> 00:00:35,321
And then for us to complete our Marine 

12
00:00:35,321 --> 00:00:37,432
Corps combat readiness evaluation for 

13
00:00:37,432 --> 00:00:39,599
our upcoming deployment . And first to 

14
00:00:39,599 --> 00:00:41,710
counter your 22 We did two events out 

15
00:00:41,710 --> 00:00:43,377
here for our combat readiness 

16
00:00:43,377 --> 00:00:45,750
evaluation . One of those events was a 

17
00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:47,649
tactical recovery of aircraft and 

18
00:00:47,649 --> 00:00:49,704
personnel event which was integrated 

19
00:00:49,704 --> 00:00:51,871
with HTML 8-69 as well as we conducted 

20
00:00:51,871 --> 00:00:54,093
an air assault , The trap event that we 

21
00:00:54,093 --> 00:00:56,149
did . There was a simulated down air 

22
00:00:56,149 --> 00:00:58,371
force pilot and we were able to come in 

23
00:00:58,371 --> 00:01:00,538
with the to be 22 and actually land in 

24
00:01:00,538 --> 00:01:02,900
the objective area and recover him . We 

25
00:01:02,900 --> 00:01:05,011
also integrated our flight surgeon as 

26
00:01:05,011 --> 00:01:07,178
well as our core men into that event . 

27
00:01:07,178 --> 00:01:09,067
Once they were on the back of the 

28
00:01:09,067 --> 00:01:11,122
aircraft , they had to stabilize the 

29
00:01:11,122 --> 00:01:12,956
patient . Once he was stabilized 

30
00:01:12,956 --> 00:01:15,122
properly strapped in the aircraft , we 

31
00:01:15,122 --> 00:01:15,020
were able to get him out of the zone 

32
00:01:15,020 --> 00:01:17,353
and into a higher level echelon of care . 

33
00:01:17,353 --> 00:01:19,520
The squadron learned that are planning 

34
00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:21,742
considerations are very different . You 

35
00:01:21,742 --> 00:01:21,530
know , how many combat troops that we 

36
00:01:21,530 --> 00:01:23,474
can actually carry at sea level is 

37
00:01:23,474 --> 00:01:25,697
different from how many we can carry up 

38
00:01:25,697 --> 00:01:27,910
here in Colorado in the 6000 ft plus 

39
00:01:27,910 --> 00:01:30,370
altitudes . I also learned how to 

40
00:01:30,380 --> 00:01:32,602
better integrate with our H . M . L . A 

41
00:01:32,602 --> 00:01:34,800
counterparts and ultimately it made us 

42
00:01:34,810 --> 00:01:36,910
better assault support squadron and 

43
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:39,640
more combat capable . The squadron will 

44
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:41,862
look to do more things like this in the 

45
00:01:41,862 --> 00:01:45,360
future . Yeah .
