1
00:00:00,031 --> 00:00:02,948
(triumphant music)

2
00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:16,590
- My name is Dennis Keller
and I spent 24 years

3
00:00:16,590 --> 00:00:17,910
with the Army Special Forces

4
00:00:17,910 --> 00:00:20,200
down at Fort Bragg, North Carolina.

5
00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:22,740
During my 24 years with
the Special Forces,

6
00:00:22,740 --> 00:00:25,730
I had multiple deployments
all over the world.

7
00:00:25,730 --> 00:00:28,324
One in particular was a
deployment to Afghanistan

8
00:00:28,324 --> 00:00:32,290
and where we were running
nighttime combat operations.

9
00:00:32,290 --> 00:00:34,288
On one particular nighttime operation,

10
00:00:34,288 --> 00:00:37,430
we had a safety issue
with one of our vehicles.

11
00:00:37,430 --> 00:00:39,220
It actually ran off the side of the road,

12
00:00:39,220 --> 00:00:42,130
and it was due to not
having an IR headlight

13
00:00:42,130 --> 00:00:44,450
for that individual to
see the side of the road.

14
00:00:44,450 --> 00:00:46,331
So I found the National Stock Number.

15
00:00:46,331 --> 00:00:49,740
I needed to make sure that
that was the exact item

16
00:00:49,740 --> 00:00:51,610
of supply I was looking for,

17
00:00:51,610 --> 00:00:53,200
which took me into WebFLIS,

18
00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:55,599
where I typed in the
National Stock Number.

19
00:00:55,599 --> 00:00:58,240
Once I got in there and looked
at the National Stock Number,

20
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:00,510
I was able to look at the
specific characteristics

21
00:01:00,510 --> 00:01:02,050
to that NSN.

22
00:01:02,050 --> 00:01:04,520
That told me this was the
assembly that I was looking for

23
00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:06,510
for those IR headlights.

24
00:01:06,510 --> 00:01:09,480
Ended up ordering quite a
few of those, 14 to be exact,

25
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:13,440
enough to outfit all of my
trucks with two IR headlights,

26
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:15,798
plus have some spares in the motor pool.

27
00:01:15,798 --> 00:01:18,804
Thanks to Logistics Information Services,

28
00:01:18,804 --> 00:01:22,310
the web, their website, and
everything they provided,

29
00:01:22,310 --> 00:01:24,480
from that point forward,
I had no safety issues

30
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:26,773
due to driving concerns.
