1
00:00:01,072 --> 00:00:03,664
- Well this is Operation Mobility Guardian.

2
00:00:03,664 --> 00:00:06,346
We have about 35 hundred players in total

3
00:00:06,346 --> 00:00:08,261
out here and that includes

4
00:00:08,261 --> 00:00:10,983
foreign nationals from approximately 35 different countries.

5
00:00:10,983 --> 00:00:14,949
- Being asked to be a liaison for the Thai delegates,

6
00:00:14,949 --> 00:00:16,529
they're main goal was

7
00:00:16,529 --> 00:00:20,641
was to come here to learn about air medical evacuation.

8
00:00:20,641 --> 00:00:21,736
- We are running missions

9
00:00:21,736 --> 00:00:23,861
so we're receiving patients off

10
00:00:23,861 --> 00:00:24,814
of the aircraft

11
00:00:24,814 --> 00:00:26,847
from their flights.

12
00:00:26,847 --> 00:00:28,705
We are establishing them

13
00:00:28,705 --> 00:00:30,326
here in our facility.

14
00:00:30,326 --> 00:00:33,658
We do nursing notes, chart notes, vital signs.

15
00:00:33,658 --> 00:00:37,283
This is the bread and butter of our type of unit

16
00:00:37,283 --> 00:00:40,021
in the reserves and air medical staging unit.

17
00:00:40,021 --> 00:00:41,961
So this kind of mission for us

18
00:00:41,961 --> 00:00:44,070
is very beneficial because it shows us

19
00:00:44,070 --> 00:00:47,129
stateside what we expect when we're deployed.

20
00:00:47,129 --> 00:00:49,065
- I know we have real planes

21
00:00:49,065 --> 00:00:50,628
coming and going a lot more

22
00:00:50,628 --> 00:00:52,161
but that is very similar to what

23
00:00:52,161 --> 00:00:53,385
we are are doing all the time,

24
00:00:53,385 --> 00:00:54,451
this is why we're here.

25
00:00:54,451 --> 00:00:56,495
- We're a little bit versed in

26
00:00:56,495 --> 00:00:59,459
the patient movement aspect of the exercise.

27
00:00:59,459 --> 00:01:02,078
- I mean it's nice to work with different units.

28
00:01:02,078 --> 00:01:03,594
and get to see the various

29
00:01:03,594 --> 00:01:04,937
levels of experience and training.

30
00:01:04,937 --> 00:01:07,146
So overall, it's been a really positive experience.

31
00:01:07,146 --> 00:01:09,206
- Mobility Guardian not only

32
00:01:09,206 --> 00:01:12,621
gives us an opportunity to share our knowledge

33
00:01:12,621 --> 00:01:15,005
but also strengthen

34
00:01:15,005 --> 00:01:17,076
our international relationship

35
00:01:17,076 --> 00:01:18,403
for them to understand

36
00:01:18,403 --> 00:01:19,806
our culture at the same time.

37
00:01:19,806 --> 00:01:22,445
- I would love to go to other locations

38
00:01:22,445 --> 00:01:23,606
and do this again

39
00:01:23,606 --> 00:01:26,195
and get to meet other groups

40
00:01:26,195 --> 00:01:30,341
from other countries, from other states

41
00:01:30,341 --> 00:01:31,558
and just start to establish

42
00:01:31,558 --> 00:01:32,869
those types of relationships,

43
00:01:32,869 --> 00:01:34,536
they're really good.
