 The events that we've been doing have been land navigation, a 5K movement, hasty repels, prepping for combat, conducting a patrol in the jungle, executing a deliberate attack on a small village, the endurance course, as well as another 5K movement with mainpacks and weapons, a 1,400 meter swim, and table one shoot. Seeing my guys push through every event that we've been conducting, it just motivates me and I try to motivate my Marines as best I can. The events that we've done the past couple of days is definitely physically demanding, especially in the jungle. The purpose of the squad competition is, in my opinion, it's really to build camaraderie among each squad, and on top of that it's just one final rep before we go to combat because we never know when that call is going to come, and doing something like this kind of shows you how efficient you are, your skills and where your weaknesses are, and allows you to get ready for when that call does come and we need to go to combat. Getting me through most of these challenges is just not wanting to let my boys down, just looking at the Marine to my left and right and just being like, this guy would do the same for me so I got to put out for him. And that's pretty much what it comes down to at the end of the day.
