WEBVTT 00:09.329 --> 00:11.273 But next time instead of riding it 00:11.273 --> 00:13.930 forward , just let it go let it go . So 00:13.930 --> 00:15.986 we're out here at Century South with 00:15.986 --> 00:19.250 the 146 AES . We have a couple 146 00:19.250 --> 00:21.083 Academy instructors as well as a 00:21.083 --> 00:23.083 support team of academy instructors 00:23.083 --> 00:25.194 from the 192nd wing . They're helping 00:25.194 --> 00:27.194 us out . We're just getting the AES 00:27.194 --> 00:29.028 group qualified on the weapons . 00:29.028 --> 00:31.479 They'll generally be issued . A regular 00:31.479 --> 00:34.700 M18 day is going to be a new classroom . 00:35.299 --> 00:37.930 Typically all day we go through the 00:38.270 --> 00:40.048 mechanicals and then we have to 00:40.048 --> 00:42.380 fundamental . We wanna know how to work 00:42.380 --> 00:44.269 the weapon in case it goes down . 00:44.269 --> 00:46.436 You're not always gonna have a red hat 00:46.436 --> 00:48.547 near you , so it's better for them to 00:48.547 --> 00:50.713 know how to use it and how to fix it . 00:50.713 --> 00:52.658 Meet our hands together and finish 00:52.658 --> 00:54.769 presenting , focusing on our target . 00:55.689 --> 00:57.745 After that , we get onto the range . 00:57.745 --> 00:59.800 And once we're at the range , we put 00:59.800 --> 01:01.356 them to the test . If their 01:01.356 --> 01:03.411 qualifications meet , they pass . If 01:03.411 --> 01:05.633 they don't , we're gonna make sure that 01:05.633 --> 01:05.480 they pass . 01:35.989 --> 01:38.589 The M4 they're going to use primarily 01:38.589 --> 01:40.756 if they're deploying and they're going 01:40.756 --> 01:42.800 to be out somewhere for 6 months . 01:43.349 --> 01:45.405 They're not going to use that on the 01:45.405 --> 01:47.405 plane , but if for some reason some 01:47.405 --> 01:49.830 horrible situation occurred , um , they 01:49.830 --> 01:51.830 could be armed up with the M4 while 01:51.830 --> 01:53.886 they're on base . We never go on the 01:53.886 --> 01:56.052 offensive . However , if we are taking 01:56.052 --> 01:58.219 fire , we will defend our patients and 01:58.219 --> 02:00.274 get to a safer location in order for 02:00.274 --> 02:02.441 that patient to get that critical care 02:02.441 --> 02:04.608 that it needs . Century South has been 02:04.608 --> 02:06.608 really great to be a part of . Um , 02:06.608 --> 02:08.663 we've got to do a lot of integration 02:08.663 --> 02:11.320 with other um forces Army , Navy , um , 02:11.369 --> 02:14.169 other foreign allies as well , so that 02:14.169 --> 02:16.391 integration is crucial . Obviously when 02:16.391 --> 02:18.391 we go down range we're gonna be all 02:18.391 --> 02:20.447 integrated together , so it's really 02:20.447 --> 02:20.369 important for us to be able to coexist 02:20.369 --> 02:22.425 like that and get that training here 02:22.425 --> 02:24.591 together . We're just happy to be here 02:24.591 --> 02:27.009 as Cadam . We rarely get to leave the 02:27.009 --> 02:29.470 range , so getting out and being able 02:29.470 --> 02:31.889 to see the rest of the Air Force do 02:31.889 --> 02:33.029 their thing has been pretty cool .
