 Today we're coaching and training our team unit how to maneuver, successfully maneuver and attack all the objectives out here. Michael Taren has been tasked with an attack to destroy a compound of around nine buildings. We are there to attack it and come off the objective unless we take casualties. And if we take casualties it will turn into an attack to seize until those casualties are brought off the objective. Through leadership from the front it is hot but despite all that the guys are the soldiers they haven't quit. They're tying it into the bigger picture what they could be doing elsewhere and so there's relevance in it. All right, Argent how could you please state your name, range, job title, unit and location of unit? My name is Chase Bagwell. I'm a Sergeant First Class with Alpha Company of the 1st Battalion, 121st Infantry. We are out of Lawrenceville, Georgia. It's where our home station is at. All right, thanks Sarn. Could you tell me what we're doing here today? Yeah, we're doing a training exercise that involves an attack to destroy an urban environment. So that they could do some urban mount training and really tie in all the operations and plans and exercises and execution. All right, could you tell me how this mission stops into XCTC? Yeah, so this is I think our fourth training exercise. I'm total of eight and we have different runs for each one of those. So I'd say we're about halfway through. Each one is almost kind of building in or tying into each training exercise. That really gives you the repetition, the training environment, the resources to really maximize the things that we kind of got us here, our foundations I guess you'd say. All right, and how does this mission affect the lethality of our fighting force? Oh, it gives you the experience. You know, instead of talking about reading about it in the book, we can go out there and actually go through the motions at full speed. You know, tying the things that we want to do to get better, things that we're good at, things that we encounter essentially all over the world. Like I said, it's one thing to do it in a book, but it's another thing to do it in actual real training environment. So it kind of gives us the opportunity to play out the things that we're working toward. And how do you expect your soldiers to exhibit leadership? Well, from my perspective going down, I expect the leaders to bleed from the front to show them that, you know, hey, this is the way it followed me. Showing them how it's giving that good example of what leadership actually is. A lot of guys and a lot of soldiers don't know the difference between good leadership, bad leadership until they get both. We just try to set these guys up for success and what they do here and actually tie it into the real world as well. A lot of times you have 19-year-old kids who's never had a chance to do anything outside of high school, so to speak. And this is their kind of first chance they're getting a little bit of adversity, I guess you'd say. And coming from the guys that have been there, done that. We want to show them that this is the way it's through me. It's executed by them through our vision and what our scope is. And how do you expect this mission to go? No, I always expect it to go fantastically. No, I mean, this is where you can make those mistakes. You want to make them here, it's nobody's perfect. No one's not going to make mistakes. We're going to make those mistakes. I tell the guys that I want them to. Use those as an example, leave the emotions out there on the plane. I'm having mistakes and they're going to fix me from length to length in the next few days. Obviously, it gives you the opportunity to make those mistakes, to build on them, I guess by new mistakes. So it's the opportunity you don't always get. All right, concerning, is there anything you'd like to add? No, just keeping guys motivated is always a, I guess I'd say something that I think is a strength of mind through leadership from the front. It is hot, but despite all that, the guys, the soldiers, they haven't quit. They're tying it into the bigger picture, what they could be doing elsewhere. So there's relevance in it, and sometimes there's not. There's some relevance here that the training value that we're getting out. So we're going to come out the other side, we're going to make a few mistakes, and we're going to be better for it. All right, thanks, Sergeant. Yeah, I appreciate it. Thank you so much. Don't do good. And that was fun.
