However, as I watched the troops respond to the uncomfortable living conditions and long days with determination and a can-do attitude, I was reminded of Paul’s words to Timothy in 2 Timothy 2:3-4: “Share in suffering as a good soldier of Christ Jesus. No soldier gets entangled in civilian pursuits, since his aim is to please the one who enlisted him.” In or order der for Sail Sailor orss an and d Sol Soldi dier erss (tr (troop oops) s) to succee succeed, d, the they y mus mustt keep keep the themm    e selves from becoming entangled in the     s     u hardships of their duty and complete the     o task for the approval of their superiors, h expects ects Ch Christians ristians to serve t  just as Christ exp h     g i Him by giving their best for His glory.

In Ephesians 5:11-17, Paul admonishes the believer to put on the “whole armor of God” since our enemy is not visible and his weapons are spiritual, not material. The armor of Paul’s day is vastly antiquated compared to our Kevlar. But I imagine the Roman soldiers were just as uncomfortable in their armor as we were in ours in the field.

heat! Many times the troops wanted to set down their gear to make their jobs easier, but the enemy threat, although notional, required us all to keep our armor on while we worked. I believe that God expects us to wear our spiritual armor — just as we wore our Kevlar regardless of how uncomfortable we felt — because the enemy threat demands proper protection. The todo laynot down ourthe protection is decision easy if we sense presence of our enemy, but God says that the devil is a roaring lion walking about and looking to devour us (1 Pt. 5:8). If we as believers are not vigilant, we will become compla complacent cent towards our enemy and go many days without putting on our spiritual armor. If you think the devil isn’t looking for a chance to ruin your relationship with God or with others, you are deceived! Takee refuge in the protection God has Tak provided.

We need to be ready for deployment, and this exercise makes that happen.” Seabee deployments are task-tailored and include missions ranging from drilling water wells in Cambodia to working in Afghanistan alongside combat Marines. “We need to ensure our tactical skills reflect the same focus we place in our construction abilities,” Trent said.

During FTX, Seabees demonstrate to evaluators from Naval Naval Construction Construct ion Group (NCG) 1 how to safely operate the M4 and M16 semi-automatic rifles, the M240B and Mk2 .50-caliber machine guns and the Mk19 grenade launcher. These weapons systems are employed in a variety of scenarios during a multitude of operations operations,, all demonstrating NMCB 3’s ability to develop warfighters, empower them to embrace an “always ready”

Passing FTX is on par with some of the most arduous training events conducted in the military military.. Unlike most parts of the Navy, Seabees manage small and large weapons systems, operate armored tactical vehicles and employ large-load construction equipment in hostile environments. environments. As a battalion, these duties are performed simultaneously, turning the entire process of completing either FTX or a deployment into a meticulous ballet of purposeful action, intelligent decision-making and poise under fire. “When a battalion passes FTX, I’m proud they can go out, do their job and return home safe,” McFadden said. “It’s tough out here, but it’s tougher on deployment. This is where we get it right. We are all Seabees. We are expected to succeed and will always get the job done.”

Naval Mobile Construction Battalion (NMCB) 3’s 3’s embedded mental health clinician spent three days with the battalion during its field training exercise (FTX) at Fort Hunter Liggett in Central California May 1316. Kimberly Tazagouzit Tazagouzit was hired by Navy Expeditionary Combat Command (NECC) to fill a staff position with NMCB 3 and help ensure warfighter readiness. “NECC wanted us to be a part of the team,” said Tazagouzit. “It’s stressful balancing home, family and operational responsibilities. I’m here to help keep [Seabees] in the fight by being a person they can talk to.” With two decades of behaviora behaviorall health and emergency mental health experience for both

hospital staff and first responders, TazagouzTazagouzit said the opportunity to place herself in the same shoes as the people she is trying to help was essential. “For me, it was important to come out here and show camaraderie,” said Tazagouzit. “To be able to experience what they are experiencing gives me more insight and helps me effectively talk about what is going on with that troop.” Tazagouzit spent three days with the Seabees experiencing firsthand chemical, biological and radiological simulated attacks, intruders in camp exercises and defensive combat action drills — all routine experiences for Seabees during FTX. “NMCB 3 is doing great!” said Tazagouzit. “[They are] very focused on the mission. I am very proud to be attached to the Seabees.”
