 There are certain situations where your weapon system might fail and there might be a foreign weapon system next to you or your partner force might have a weapon system that you might be able to borrow and use to complete the mission. My name is James Hall, I'm a specialist in the 3rd squad, 3rd platoon, Bravo 1-8. We're here conducting training with multinational forces during platinum lion. We got to shoot the British small arms weapon and all of the Bulgarian weapons. I actually familiarized myself a little bit with the weapon system before, prior to just looking up information online and it was a pretty interesting experience. The bullpup is pretty interesting the way they operate and they're very accurate and they seem to be, they're a little bit heavier but they have a very soft recoil and it was a very nice experience, it really was. Having the multinational aspect of it really does, it brings together a whole lot more ideas of how to do things, it's been very enriching. I'm hoping that they learn a better sense of team, cohesiveness, we come together more as a unit and we're able to conduct a mission with more efficiency.
