 Today we conducted a lot of mountain training. I was mainly focused on small unit levels. As a junior leader I've been given a lot of opportunity to design some of the training myself in a lot of the classes so that we can go after like very specific tasks that we feel within our teams and squads that we need to improve on. Friendlies on the right! Communicate. Who's pulling security down the hallway? Your keys to survival are communicating, your violence of action and do not drop your security. I think it's helping us increase our interoperability with coalitions and other NATO forces. Opportunities like this with the ranges that we've been given here to run through with our soldiers has helped us increase their knowledge and empower both my team leaders, my fire team leaders and their soldiers as well. I was holding the hallway almost the whole way down Tucson. More or less let our soldiers figure out how to learn, put into action the knowledge that we've given them through classroom instructions. So I think it's been great for us to have the opportunity to see hands-on what they've learned through our teaching.
