We did an exercise back in may in preparation for this and developed a pretty detailed concept of operations. We built load plan, timelines, spare parts lists, we really got into the weeds, thinking about the second and third tier effects, so i want my relief to understand that and i want him to know where that plan is so he can pull it right off the shelf if this ever happens and be ready to respond quickly instead of trying to figure this all out when we need to be getting underway. Ill boil mine down into just one, and that is i will pass to my relief to continue to support events like this and look for opportunities to continue to learn how we best in the military can integrate with our civilian and federal contemporaries to be prepared for an eventuality that we hope will never come, but we certainly should be prepared for. So the one thing im passing on is keep the momentum. Thank you, all. One other benefit that was cited in the after action review and also was mentioned today i

Just one, and that is i will pass to my relief to continue to support events like this and look for opportunities to continue to learn how we best in the military can integrate with our civilian and federal contemporaries to be prepared for an eventuality that we hope will never come, but we certainly should be prepared for. So the one thing im passing on is keep the momentum. Thank you, all. One other benefit that was cited in the after action review and also was mentioned today is the chance it meet someone else from the other agency. We also heard a lot about training, understanding ics, understanding dsca and thats defense support of civil authorities. Its the Guiding Principles for how our Armed Services are going to support civilians when something happens. And i think those are common across a lot of the themes you are going to hear today and throughout the weekend. So id kind of like to take those two off the table because they are sort of gimmes and put it to you, what are the
Were ready to work and knew what to do, as part of our family, could have had more of them in leadership positions bringing the team closer together. It was a great experience for me. Its absolutely going to happen. We hope we would have that great working relationship and we expect we would. We can take this to another level and be working much more closely with the department of defense, all levels with our military which it was a strong working relationship there and these were just some of the take aways for me. Interested to hear what others have to say about that. But again, i came out of there feeling very positive and with a few punch list items that wopt take much for the city to do but that we can put in place and we will be that much stronger when the earthquake happens. From our perspective it was very seamless, cooperative. We understood the cq structure right there out of the gate, were there to support. We fell in under the department of public works rep and we have some
Any other questions . Panelists, thank you very much, i appreciate it. Lets give them a big round of applause. applause . Something that took place yesterday was our medical exchange. Rob is going to give you a summary of how that went and at the same time were going to bring up some additional panelists who will give us their perspective. So were going to do a little bit of a hot swap here to keep the show rolling. While we seat the panel im going to introduce them but focus on medical. This just started up last year formally, but i have to say it really started in 2010, the idea of how do we highlight the medical because for those who dont know my history, im an old paramedic so this kind of comes naturally to me. In 2010 we were aboard the macon island, one of the things i was fascinated with as were the attendees was the hospital space. There were a bunch of tours that took place there. Last year the idea, it wasnt my idea and i wish i could claim it but i cant, the idea to do a me
