 This week we're assisting the Kiwis with exercise Phantom major. We're out here acting as the op-for for them So we're the enemy and they're the enemy forces Being that we're not the force being trained there is a little bit of leeway for us to enjoy what we're doing We get to engage the enemy in a way that the Marines normally would which is not something The New Zealand military is familiar with so we're allowed to implement our own tactics to try and give them a hard time We have Assaulted positions using fire and maneuver and class Marine Corps style and Conducted simulated attacks raids and defensive operations as well. They have enemy movement. They're gonna be coming from the south I'll copy over. We also have POWs and they will take off running. They'll resist they'll fight back and We kind of have a little bit of fun with that one We appreciate the fact that we were afforded this opportunity It's got us to build a lot of unit cohesion For bombing This is a rare opportunity to conduct what I consider extremely valuable training
