1 00:00:00,340 --> 00:00:02,340 Lear is the Liberty Eagle readiness 2 00:00:02,340 --> 00:00:04,562 exercise . So it's a combination of the 3 00:00:04,562 --> 00:00:06,784 names for both wings , The Liberty Wing 4 00:00:06,784 --> 00:00:09,007 of the 5 12 and the Eagle Wing of the 4 5 00:00:09,007 --> 00:00:11,229 36 . What's all entail is a lot of work 6 00:00:11,229 --> 00:00:13,340 and a lot of collaboration , A lot of 7 00:00:13,340 --> 00:00:15,562 planning in order to ensure that we are 8 00:00:15,562 --> 00:00:17,729 validating the readiness between our 4 9 00:00:17,729 --> 00:00:20,280 36 side as well as our 5 12 . The goals 10 00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:22,810 and expectations for Lear is to ensure 11 00:00:22,810 --> 00:00:26,040 that our airmen are capable to generate , 12 00:00:26,050 --> 00:00:28,590 employ and sustain in a contested and 13 00:00:28,590 --> 00:00:30,790 degraded environment . Lear is a 14 00:00:30,790 --> 00:00:32,679 culmination of a lot of different 15 00:00:32,679 --> 00:00:34,901 training and other exercises that we do 16 00:00:34,901 --> 00:00:37,012 around the wings . So because this is 17 00:00:37,012 --> 00:00:39,123 readiness training , we are trying to 18 00:00:39,123 --> 00:00:41,290 combine all of those events while also 19 00:00:41,290 --> 00:00:43,346 giving it more of a forward deployed 20 00:00:43,346 --> 00:00:45,401 scenario . So that way it's a little 21 00:00:45,401 --> 00:00:47,568 more realistic . So when our troops do 22 00:00:47,568 --> 00:00:49,401 go into theater , they're better 23 00:00:49,401 --> 00:00:51,623 trained and it's a little more familiar 24 00:00:51,623 --> 00:00:51,390 to them as opposed to seeing a threat 25 00:00:51,390 --> 00:00:53,501 for the first time . Now that we have 26 00:00:53,501 --> 00:00:55,723 different types of threats , you know , 27 00:00:55,723 --> 00:00:57,557 we have to kind of get ourselves 28 00:00:57,557 --> 00:00:59,779 prepared for a different type of war in 29 00:00:59,779 --> 00:00:59,550 a different type of fight essentially . 30 00:00:59,550 --> 00:01:01,661 We want everybody , not just our Lear 31 00:01:01,661 --> 00:01:03,717 players , but our entire wings to be 32 00:01:03,717 --> 00:01:04,060 ready for readiness
