 Welcome to The Call Report. I'm Lance Corporal Clayton Philip-Hovins. And I'm Lance Corporal Ali Byswinger. First up, one of the most amazing stories I've ever heard. Staff Sergeant Timothy Williams was recently awarded the Silver Star and Purple Heart medals for his actions in Afghanistan in July of 2012. When his Marines came under heavy enemy fire, Williams dragged his wounded team leader more than 1,000 feet to safety. That's more than three football fields. Well, he then returned to the fight during a 10-hour battle, eliminating roughly 20 enemy fighters. The recon Marine said he's just trying to live up to the standards set by his unit. There's a couple Marines in my battalion, and even a couple in my company with the Silver Star, and it's big shoes to fill to stay the lead. Staff Sergeant William says his recon training is what prepared him in battle. Speaking of which, recon Marines were training in Hawaii during exercise sandfisher 2014. So, what's this training all about? The training helps Marines improve their parachuting, combat diving, and small boat handling skills. Well, that makes sense because these guys are freaking recon Marines. They swim fast, run hard, and they train to win. The exercise also teaches them to operate independently in any environment with limited support. In other news, there are new requirements if you're thinking about volunteering for Marine security. If you're falling out of runs and your canvies are fitting a little snug, this probably isn't for you. Only Marines with a first-class PFT and CFT score are eligible. There's also a new height standard. Marines must be at least 64 inches tall to effectively observe the lobby, entrance doors, and other surroundings. So, I guess you're disqualified. They're looking for smarter Marines too. Before, you could volunteer with a GT score of 90. Well, now you need a GT score of 100. So that's higher. 10 points higher, genius. So I guess you're disqualified too. For more information, click on the link in the video description.
