2:30 am
were moving in a race of knots run crouch and fall but you've got to make sure the right person is in your sights stop. these i mean right in front of you and you got too close to each other to shoot when you're behind someone number one go now. heading downhill it's a nightmare just staying on your feet. when the tank in the grenade launcher open up alongside you it does tend to push you forward. by the time we hit the boat some my legs were in agony so i tumbled into my folks so i don't think i could have taken another step. we get around.
2:31 am
each day to ourselves and at least there's a t.v. room where we can chill out most of the time i just use it to recover to write to you of course but there's always someone new to chat with. stupid what was the hardest moment for you here is this here in the army. probably all the physical training apart from the some drills like marching drills jumping isn't easy either. to the army have you decided what you want to do yet not i'm studying at university and want to find a good job and be the best in my field of logistics if possible i'd like to stay in the army as a contractor because they pay well now and allow you to do external studies. life in the dormitory is like being in a five star hotel you sleep so much better when you only have to deal with two other people snoring. how you james good how are you going up
2:32 am
special. and i'm going to need all the energy i can get. we've been building up to a day of full sparring and most of the time we're working on shadow boxing and maneuvers. with a straight and you. understand. tension get ready. to speak. with you all right. it's time to pick up. and start scrapping. because eventually you're going to have to put on the gloves and the head gear and the hell out of each other. i've got. to slow. defend defend.
2:33 am
just missed my last to see about twenty years ago i'm going to have to remember it . in the mean time i was taking on one of the mountain regiments challenges. the whole thing is a hellish test. jumping. and shooting with no chance of a break. and come. the idea is to train you to overcome extreme conditions whether you're walking along ledges. james move mud or the ways are gone.
2:34 am
faster than leaping down canyons you want your friends back in clear out any oncoming enemy. at this paratroopers obstacle course must be crossed by a division as a whole it means that the success of the filling tasks doesn't depend on a single soldier but on cooperation between soldiers of this division. cover a shell or until it. was a shell but each soldier polishes the skills he had acquired before coming here from their own units so we improved what they had already learned before doing as
2:35 am
you can see soldiers manage this obstacle course well. the divisions work in coordination. move. it's things like this that make you realize just how fit the power tripping needs to be go to the club you will have nothing left to give. you a look you're grabbing at wrong. take it like that there's a hole if you see your fingers like that push closer to the rock feel it lie on. your right leg there. stand up and straighten it out you know the council come on come on try harder to the end. the blue hold come on. discuss.
2:36 am
it's too hot. i can have no more strength so. more almost a goal of course ends here with this climbing wall if you fail to do your task here you let the whole group down his life and his life depend on you you must cooperate and if one of you fails it means all of you fail. right use your head you have to think right now is the time when you think hire fire. go there e.r. . keep going back an excellent that's it was. a great. ground loop to come on. but is one for a little for one here there's always someone there to help you get through. come on there's not much left. to come on come on do it yourself.
2:37 am
come on well done stuff. well done. it's done a good job of joy isnt it. but you've got a satisfactory result i'm pleased with here the task is complete you've done well i've got nothing to say excellent well. given you want to be up as a comer chip is vital in the army we try to build a good team spirit make a friendly atmosphere i help you today tomorrow you help me and if you couldn't get through the fence today and you got stuck i helped tomorrow i could fail to when god forbid injured myself and you'll help me that's what's important to the army
2:38 am
friendship and a close knit team in situations like this real team spirit reveals itself you can see straight away who's your friend who's not. really prepare you for an actual. truth to the bigger they are the harder they fall. don't touch the headgear ok no grabbing him no hits to growling. at best nothing will if anything happens. break off immediately. already began. i wonder ok. james miley right.
2:39 am
pretty. well pretty. you would know really know her. language as well but i will only react to situations as i have read the reports so unlike the players no i will leave them to the state department to comment on your latter point of the month so it's secure yeah the car is on the docket no. thank you no more weasel words. when you fade a direct question be prepared for a change when you have to punch be ready for a battle pretty speech and down the street into costs.

a record setting trip by land air sea space. a limpid torch relay. m r t r two dot com. activism politics and a cold place and a whole lot of media publicity what is greenpeace all about today is it is smug and self promoting or a brave environmentalists for the opinions vary and at the very center of the debate surrounding organisations such as greenpeace is the question whether they have the right to operate outside the law. more news today. these are the images the world has been seeing from the streets of canada. china corporations are today.
2:42 am
you know i want james. faster. people. right. so let's get a soldier who has never faults never met his enemy face to face or never felt the strength of his enemy is not ready psychologically or physically to fight but will that is why the most important and the only possible way to overcome those fears is to practice and to spark. one thing you do in the paratroopers though is persistence if you get knocked down you go to get back up again.
2:43 am
with a body well i don't know what. you . say well done. that was a good lesson while you're ok. moto feel a bit sick of course. because time to combat is a last resort ideally heavy artillery should make sure the enemy never gets that close. in on time drills where out patrolling the hills almost every day. nobody wants all there's a double edged sword you spread the intense heat from inside but you have to hang
2:44 am
on for dear life you managed to inhale some air among the clouds of dust but tanks and their stories speak temperamental and maintaining them is a full time job. on the child first we all have girlfriends we call them and feel happy and each then in three or four sometimes even five months it's like what's wrong you know if i've broken up with my girlfriend why she cheated on me how do you know my friends told me it happened to me too everything seemed to be fine and i colts on her cell phone was off. anyway she's not the only one. apparently the army gives you women trouble who thought it don't forget it's not too long to learn coming home. we've been moved into a field camp so sadly my days of comfortable living are over there are about thirty
2:45 am
of a searing a tent and most of our chores involved digging out the ground for the new ones to be put up. i'm spending a lot of time with my tank persued apparently they've got something special in store for me i'm not sure whether to be worried or not. james now we're going to drive a tank of. courage and resolve that brace yourself we've got ready ready is the big get into position here. head forward and. the lead in the right direction of the tank. keep your elbows close the closer you keep them the lower you'll be ready. let's go .
2:46 am
congratulations you know training has been a success. there were you done it. and the more you train your soldiers the more you learn about that was through that school can you see what they can do and how they can do it you become confident in them and in yourself as well we see if anything would happen you'll shore up the bus and do everything well it's his business unit he's capable of performing any time because of his training. the enemy's been identified group is going to lie. with the objective of capturing one
2:47 am

of them on some odds. taking the ridge across the pass. fifteen vehicles. they haven't taught us interrogation techniques yet i think that must be an advanced course. one of the regular favorites here is but we eat with a chunk of can beef. but it's calories and we all empty all messed hints. despite the fact that we're living in a muddy fields we still have to keep ourselves clean and tidy and there are a few tricks of been able to pick up. ok how do you feel all together
2:49 am
which i mean at the beginning was that you know initially we didn't understand each other at all of course because we were all from different cultures with different approaches to life and at first there were conflicts but in two or three weeks we got used to each other and became friends. everything's been fine since you learned to get on with people who are it's essential here. like your tunic is almost ready we only have to dry it when it's dry it'll look fine with just stamp it a bit more here so that it won't rip. tides out light out out lights. tomorrow i get a chance of redemption. all the training. all the pain i'm about to find out if it's been worth it. one thing's for sure it's going to be terrifying.
2:50 am
a couple of weeks ago if you told me i'd be sitting on the tarmac waiting to jump out of an airplane loft. my last training session on the practice tower was a disaster i couldn't go through with it. i was only forty metres i'm about to try a. jumping from an illusion is worse than from an answer off the answer now if it's like jumping off a stool you just drop nothing to be afraid of but here a strong gust catches you it was just amazing to think you're ready. for let's see. hope so. we're waiting for what seems like hours eventually we get the all clear good weather's to you on the horizon perfect
2:51 am
jumping conditions. there's no backing out this time. i'm going to have people in front of me i'm behind if i don't go no one else can it's not an option. the equipment checked one last time and we're ready to fly. everyone's handling it in a different way there are guys here who jump three or four times and this has never done it before. on trying to think about anything roll them what's about to happen as the plane takes off. i hope i'm in for a soft landing. first the tank goes out the back and then it's off. this is what makes the bit of a unique. the guys say it's better when you can see the ground. hope the right.

damage and complexity of this oil spill was not something you can grasp just by looking at dirty birds we have between four to five million people in this directly affected area of the coast and it's pretty clear why it's not being reported because b.p. can't afford to have a reported all along the gulf coast are clean they are safe and they're open for business if b.p. is the single largest oil contributor to the pentagon the us war machine is heavily reliant upon b.p. and their oil this is a huge step backwards for the marker c. it's a step forward a little iffy carex it is toxic is a look a lot like spraying in vietnam it was it was not a picture that either the government or b.p. really wanted to have out there i don't want dispersants to be the agent on.
