WEBVTT 00:01.110 --> 00:03.332 Well , here in the cold doing operation 00:03.332 --> 00:05.332 se burn deep freeze . We're testing 00:05.332 --> 00:07.443 limitations of our se equipment along 00:07.443 --> 00:09.388 with doing tactical training , the 00:09.388 --> 00:11.332 threats ever changing . We have to 00:11.332 --> 00:13.332 learn to adapt and overcome . We've 00:13.332 --> 00:15.443 been used to testing our equipment in 00:15.443 --> 00:17.610 the desert in heat . It's time to make 00:17.610 --> 00:19.721 sure it can operate in cold , pushing 00:19.721 --> 00:19.600 those limitations and driving the 00:19.610 --> 00:21.721 mission forward if you don't mind the 00:21.721 --> 00:23.777 cold , it's a great time . The whole 00:23.777 --> 00:26.555 point of operation Sebring deep freeze 00:26.715 --> 00:30.135 is to put our skills and 00:30.145 --> 00:33.345 equipment to the test in an 00:33.384 --> 00:35.685 extreme weather environment . And the 00:35.694 --> 00:37.694 extreme weather environment that we 00:37.694 --> 00:40.244 face every year is cold weather and 00:40.494 --> 00:42.605 cold weather brings along with a slew 00:42.605 --> 00:44.772 of problems and what we can do to , to 00:44.772 --> 00:46.550 combat those things or keep our 00:46.550 --> 00:48.883 equipment operational as long as we can . 00:48.883 --> 00:51.105 The students were given intel that they 00:51.105 --> 00:53.272 need to go to the site , clear out the 00:53.272 --> 00:55.327 area , make sure there weren't any , 00:55.327 --> 00:57.659 any enemy combatants there and then go 00:57.669 --> 01:01.430 in and attempt to get samples or 01:01.439 --> 01:04.250 to also try and identify the products 01:04.260 --> 01:06.316 that were being made inside . So the 01:06.316 --> 01:08.482 students tactically came down the road 01:08.529 --> 01:11.269 to survey the situation . And then they 01:11.279 --> 01:13.057 moved in towards the building , 01:13.120 --> 01:15.231 determined which entrance they wanted 01:15.231 --> 01:17.453 to go into . Then they proceeded to get 01:17.453 --> 01:19.620 inside as fast as possible . Found the 01:19.620 --> 01:21.676 room that had the lab that they were 01:21.676 --> 01:23.787 looking for . They decided where they 01:23.787 --> 01:25.731 wanted to sample Deon as best they 01:25.731 --> 01:27.953 could at the time and then tried to get 01:27.953 --> 01:30.120 out . The cold weather definitely adds 01:30.120 --> 01:32.287 to a difficulty in both the getting to 01:32.287 --> 01:35.246 the site that they need to and uh 01:35.255 --> 01:37.276 sample that as well as the actual 01:37.286 --> 01:39.646 sampling itself . Even our equipment , 01:39.655 --> 01:41.377 the battery life on all of our 01:41.377 --> 01:43.544 equipment really shortens down when we 01:43.544 --> 01:45.655 get cold . Something that you have to 01:45.655 --> 01:47.877 think about and not just your equipment 01:47.877 --> 01:49.766 but also your uh your health . We 01:49.766 --> 01:51.933 haven't really tested our cold weather 01:51.933 --> 01:53.933 equipment in 30 years . Basically . 01:53.933 --> 01:55.877 Since the end of the Cold War , we 01:55.877 --> 01:58.192 don't have those uh tactics and 01:58.202 --> 02:00.472 techniques and procedures built up 02:00.482 --> 02:02.649 anymore for the current equipment . We 02:02.649 --> 02:04.760 have it for legacy equipment , but we 02:04.760 --> 02:06.926 don't use that anymore . So we need to 02:06.926 --> 02:09.149 do the hard work of developing those TT 02:09.149 --> 02:11.204 PS for our current equipment . We're 02:11.204 --> 02:13.260 having a team come out to respond to 02:13.260 --> 02:15.482 our improvised device that was expected 02:15.482 --> 02:17.649 chemical war for agent . We're looking 02:17.649 --> 02:20.220 to see if we can find confirmation of a 02:20.250 --> 02:22.589 chlorine product or , or maybe some 02:22.600 --> 02:24.850 precursors to a chlorine product . 02:25.000 --> 02:27.222 We're trying to develop some analytical 02:27.222 --> 02:29.222 thinking . We're trying to hone and 02:29.222 --> 02:31.333 sharpen those , those response skills 02:31.333 --> 02:33.000 and the , and the recy skills 02:33.000 --> 02:35.222 evaluating the facility . And then once 02:35.222 --> 02:37.278 they've done some monitoring outside 02:37.278 --> 02:39.389 the facility , they're going to check 02:39.389 --> 02:38.929 inside the facility and , and try to 02:38.940 --> 02:41.162 identify as much as they can about what 02:41.162 --> 02:43.162 was going on inside . We're running 02:43.162 --> 02:46.264 them through a bio scenario . They're 02:46.274 --> 02:49.225 coming across any type of bio agents . 02:49.235 --> 02:51.824 They're getting into their chem gear 02:51.925 --> 02:54.274 and they're taking samples and trying 02:54.285 --> 02:56.563 to identify what they're coming across , 02:56.563 --> 02:58.674 then they can push the information up 02:58.674 --> 03:01.024 to higher headquarters . We have them 03:01.035 --> 03:03.125 room clearing procedures . They went 03:03.134 --> 03:05.245 through a little bit of training with 03:05.245 --> 03:07.356 our security forces members and got a 03:07.356 --> 03:09.078 little bit of shoot movement , 03:09.078 --> 03:11.134 communicate room clearing procedures 03:11.134 --> 03:13.356 from them to help them accomplish their 03:13.356 --> 03:15.578 missions that they're being tasked with 03:15.578 --> 03:17.690 today . The way seaburn hazard reacts 03:17.690 --> 03:19.801 in heat is very different than how it 03:19.801 --> 03:21.967 will react in cold . So it's important 03:21.967 --> 03:24.134 that we understand how that's going to 03:24.134 --> 03:26.301 react and what equipment we'll need to 03:26.301 --> 03:25.940 push that mission forward .
