00:00.009 --> 00:02.176
Good morning . I'm Corporal Hardesty .

00:02.176 --> 00:04.009
I'm serving with Lone Star First

00:04.009 --> 00:06.231
Battalion 23rd Marines out of Houston ,

00:06.231 --> 00:08.390
Texas . I'm in 29 Palms at 325 ITX .

00:08.880 --> 00:12.119
I'm attending the SB 300 switchblade

00:12.119 --> 00:14.800
drone course . Firing , firing , firing .

00:16.360 --> 00:18.790
It's a drone that uh louters drops

00:18.790 --> 00:21.000
munitions on on target . It's a 3 day

00:21.000 --> 00:23.111
course . We're on the last day of the

00:23.111 --> 00:25.333
course . Uh , the 1st 2 days are mostly

00:25.333 --> 00:27.667
safety , the safe handling of the drone .

00:27.667 --> 00:29.833
The third day Marines are pumped right

00:29.833 --> 00:29.379
here on the range . We get to actually

00:29.379 --> 00:32.150
utilize the drone . This drone is going

00:32.150 --> 00:34.261
to of the battalion . It's gonna make

00:34.261 --> 00:36.150
the battalion more lethal than it

00:36.150 --> 00:35.779
already is .
