WEBVTT 00:15.080 --> 00:17.270 Sorry , major Brent Richard Sheets on 00:17.270 --> 00:19.381 the squadron start , major for Mwss 2 00:19.381 --> 00:22.740 73 . The main goal for the exercise 00:22.740 --> 00:25.500 that for the Guardian center at the 00:25.500 --> 00:27.611 effects of ford store , it was pretty 00:27.611 --> 00:29.667 much to put our marines and the most 00:29.667 --> 00:31.833 realistic training environment that we 00:31.833 --> 00:34.000 possibly provided them . Our enemy has 00:34.000 --> 00:36.167 a vote . So the more situation put our 00:36.167 --> 00:38.167 marines in to see how they react to 00:38.167 --> 00:40.500 stress is they build resiliency to that . 00:40.500 --> 00:42.640 I think we're obligated as leaders , 00:42.650 --> 00:45.500 senior leaders to train our marines to 00:45.500 --> 00:47.722 the best of our ability and put them in 00:47.722 --> 00:50.670 the situations .

Is to sustain 00:59.630 --> 01:02.040 readiness were required to exercise and 01:02.040 --> 01:04.840 rehearse our squadrons critical task 01:04.850 --> 01:06.628 three of them that we got after 01:06.628 --> 01:08.850 specifically during the O .

Right . And how much 01:24.309 --> 01:26.532 capabilities we really do have as a M . 01:26.532 --> 01:28.698 W . S . S .
