 The objective of this exercise is to put rifle companies and all of their attachments basically to the greatest test which we can afford here on campus here. This experience first of all exposes all of our Marines to what is combined arms at the greatest scale which a company can afford. Running a company supported night live fire attack is quite possibly the most challenging thing that any rifle company can accomplish. An Apex battalion task force is the pinnacle right at the peak. Every deploying battalion out the door secondary division has to achieve that milestone. Most infantry battalions are capable of conducting this but very few have Victor 2H the first one to be able to conduct this complex of a live fire event. Every time you come out for a filled up, every time you come out for another range it's another rep. One and two you're getting another look. So the PSOs here versus the Coyotes at ITX they're going to induce friction on you in different ways not every way is the same. So while they're constantly throwing new stuff at you as a small unit leader you're having to identify these things on the deck fix it on the fly debrief after and correct the mistakes that you made and that's how you're getting better every time you're coming out to do something like this.
