So, if you take that image and you have objectives on the one talon and capability on the other, and you marry them together, thats what we in the United States have been doing, particularly since the end of world war ii. Then there we were having propelled the three worlds to victory. The other of us having seen we had an aggressive adversary on our hands and looking back what a horrible last century or so, we had to do better.

Were not kind of an outfit, its easier for them to collaborate with us. So, all of these things are important to us as we have these exercises. So, i say this is a very worthwhile enterprise that will keep going. I tip my hat to my friend mike who really has been leading us in these efforts. And now i say as also the slogan, i guess you call it this morning, maybe its what the navy says. I think its a very good phrase. A global force for good. Thats what weve been practicing, a global force for good. Thank you. applause thank you, sir. Thank you.

We need caltrans, were going to need chp, were going to need cal fire, we need dwr, they are invested in restoring their Critical Infrastructure and its our responsibility to reach across those lines to get that kind of access to keep that kind of restoration underway. Thank you. Mr. Brig. In terms of establishing standards for resill yepbs, absolutely, we have done that.
