00:00:00,106 --> 00:00:02,810
(Upbeat music)

2
00:00:02,810 --> 00:00:04,160
[Jonathan]- So today we're out here

3
00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:06,660
with the logistics
combat element with MRF-D

4
00:00:06,660 --> 00:00:09,430
trying to test the limitations
and capabilities of the

5
00:00:09,430 --> 00:00:11,928
light weight purification system.

6
00:00:11,928 --> 00:00:12,761
(Splash)

7
00:00:12,761 --> 00:00:14,670
Typically you would deploy it in a Quadcon

8
00:00:14,670 --> 00:00:17,050
but what we're doing today is
instead of pulling everything

9
00:00:17,050 --> 00:00:18,940
out of a box we're
leaving it on the truck.

10
00:00:18,940 --> 00:00:21,600
And all we have to do is drive
the truck up to the water,

11
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:24,100
put the hoses in the water,
and purify from there.

12
00:00:25,830 --> 00:00:28,370
It is the first time we actually
were able to come out here

13
00:00:28,370 --> 00:00:29,990
and deploy it into the water

14
00:00:29,990 --> 00:00:31,840
and see how fast we can make it work.

15
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:35,190
We're looking at anything
between maybe 30 minutes

16
00:00:35,190 --> 00:00:37,750
to 50 minutes, um, cutting that time out

17
00:00:37,750 --> 00:00:39,480
and it also will cut down time

18
00:00:39,480 --> 00:00:41,923
for putting the gear away and driving off.

19
00:00:43,480 --> 00:00:45,470
So the biggest struggle is I would say is

20
00:00:45,470 --> 00:00:47,740
everything is again in
a very confined space.

21
00:00:47,740 --> 00:00:48,950
Here everything is pre-installed,

22
00:00:48,950 --> 00:00:50,690
you can't move the items around.

23
00:00:50,690 --> 00:00:53,700
There's very little
flexibility, so coming out here

24
00:00:53,700 --> 00:00:56,350
with the set-up already in mind
about what we're going to do

25
00:00:56,350 --> 00:00:57,353
was really helpful.

26
00:00:59,130 --> 00:01:01,130
We can actually use this
in multiple scenarios

27
00:01:01,130 --> 00:01:03,810
whether it's for our own
marines in the field,

28
00:01:03,810 --> 00:01:05,470
or if there's a...a natural disaster

29
00:01:05,470 --> 00:01:08,430
and maybe a hurricane hits
and there's very limited water

30
00:01:08,430 --> 00:01:10,560
to hand out we can actually go out,

31
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:13,530
and whether its the lake,
the beach, the river we

32
00:01:13,530 --> 00:01:16,230
can actually turn that water
into water to distribute

33
00:01:16,230 --> 00:01:17,440
to whoever needs it.

34
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:18,840
[Marine]- Tastes like water!

35
00:01:22,668 --> 00:01:25,168
