00:07.440 --> 00:11.350
Yeah , Okay . A Crew

00:11.350 --> 00:13.572
five CBS from Naval Mobile construction

00:13.572 --> 00:15.640
battalion four Detachment four are

00:15.640 --> 00:17.640
building a meeting house on forward

00:17.640 --> 00:20.940
operating base shank once completed ,

00:21.620 --> 00:23.787
the meeting house will allow coalition

00:23.787 --> 00:26.300
forces and afghan leadership a secure

00:26.300 --> 00:29.030
location to hold meetings . However ,

00:29.040 --> 00:30.960
the bees have run into obstacles

00:30.970 --> 00:33.230
ranging from a change in plans to being

00:33.230 --> 00:35.350
short of supplies , but it's nothing

00:35.350 --> 00:38.040
this small crew of CBS can't overcome .

00:38.050 --> 00:40.060
The crew has been doing pretty well

00:40.060 --> 00:42.130
with the challenges of this projects

00:42.130 --> 00:44.352
presented . You know , when we got here

00:44.352 --> 00:46.463
originally planning on building 32 by

00:46.463 --> 00:50.210
88 ft opp sent to a 21.5 by 21 a

00:50.210 --> 00:54.200
half meat house . With the change ,

00:54.200 --> 00:56.478
you know , they've adapted pretty well .

00:56.478 --> 00:58.478
The fact that we haven't had two by

00:58.478 --> 01:00.700
fours and are currently milling our own

01:00.700 --> 01:02.700
lumber , you know , it's slowed the

01:02.700 --> 01:02.390
project , but at the same time we're

01:02.390 --> 01:04.750
still making steady progress .

01:05.920 --> 01:08.520
Most of the crew are junior sailors

01:08.530 --> 01:10.863
four months into their first deployment .

01:10.863 --> 01:12.474
Yet each CB possesses unique

01:12.474 --> 01:14.610
experiences and skills which allows

01:14.610 --> 01:16.960
them to pull together and push through

01:16.960 --> 01:20.260
challenges from some experiences of

01:20.270 --> 01:23.440
previous jobs to previous projects that

01:23.440 --> 01:25.760
our team has kind of complement each

01:25.760 --> 01:28.040
other so one may not be extremely

01:28.040 --> 01:31.630
proficient at the next one is the fob

01:31.630 --> 01:33.797
shank project . Crew estimates they'll

01:33.797 --> 01:36.019
complete the new meeting house in early

01:36.019 --> 01:39.130
