 I'm First Lieutenant Ariel Bridgers. I'm out of the 307th Chemical Company, which is in Bell, California, or LA County. And I am the recon platoon leader, as well as the full-time staff working on CRE. This specific exercise, recon, basically is pulling casualties out of the hot zone. And then in the event that any other unknown or unidentified hazard comes up, we would go out and attack that target and help with the identification of that hazard. In a hazardous area, you never really know exactly what you're going to get, especially when a disaster happens. So we have to be prepared to kind of not only do CASEVAC, but also attack these different hazards, collect samples for people, so they can send them out to a laboratory and help with that identification process. So I will say that you have to be very motivated, especially on recon. You have a lot of stuff that you have to be able to manage, be able to do. It's a lot of physical labor involved as well. I would say that our soldiers do really well. They've integrated really well. And honestly, a lot of them are having fun out here. So getting assigned this mission, I think, has really reinvigorated the unit. It's made people motivated and excited to come to drill. I'm very thankful for the opportunity to have come on this pre-mission. I would definitely say that out here, I really get to develop my leadership skills, so I'm very thankful for that.
