00:04.340 --> 00:07.280
So advocating for that end up fleet

00:07.280 --> 00:09.280
activities . Sasebo held a personal

00:09.280 --> 00:10.947
readiness summit to talk with

00:10.947 --> 00:13.002
leadership about many serious issues

00:13.002 --> 00:15.058
facing today's navy . The purpose of

00:15.058 --> 00:17.560
the summit is to get commanders and

00:17.560 --> 00:19.720
other people thinking broadly about

00:19.720 --> 00:22.370
some of the very real issues that face

00:22.380 --> 00:25.090
sailors including including drugs and

00:25.090 --> 00:27.034
alcohol , suicide , sexual assault

00:27.034 --> 00:29.034
prevention . So it's a way to bring

00:29.034 --> 00:31.257
everybody together . These issues don't

00:31.257 --> 00:33.423
just affect the sailors involved , but

00:33.423 --> 00:35.146
they affect the entire command

00:35.146 --> 00:37.820
incidents are dramatic and they cause a

00:37.830 --> 00:40.163
lot , a lot of grief within the command .

00:40.163 --> 00:43.170
Whether you lose someone um , in

00:43.170 --> 00:45.590
dealing with that or whether you have

00:45.590 --> 00:47.860
to process personal out of the navy

00:47.870 --> 00:50.160
losing one sailor is losing one . Too

00:50.160 --> 00:52.740
many sailors must act as a team at all

00:52.740 --> 00:55.150
times and is up to all sailors to look

00:55.150 --> 00:57.261
out for their shipmates . The Navy is

00:57.261 --> 00:59.483
doing a great job of emphasizing things

00:59.483 --> 01:01.950
like bystander intervention to get the

01:01.960 --> 01:04.580
people that are not part of the problem ,

01:04.590 --> 01:06.701
to be actually a part of the solution

01:07.340 --> 01:09.507
by intervening when they see something

01:09.507 --> 01:11.673
that's wrong . At the end of the day ,

01:11.673 --> 01:13.562
the summit was an opportunity for

01:13.562 --> 01:15.729
leaders to strengthen their commitment

01:15.729 --> 01:17.840
to the sailors . They are responsible

01:17.840 --> 01:20.062
for its giving them a chance to kind of

01:20.062 --> 01:22.284
stop and pause and think about how they

01:22.284 --> 01:24.284
look at the problem and give them a

01:24.284 --> 01:24.070
chance to kind of challenge their

01:24.080 --> 01:27.260
thinking and see if they

01:27.940 --> 01:31.240
have some areas that they could also

01:31.240 --> 01:33.462
kind of use some improvement in for the

01:33.462 --> 01:35.296
Navy to stay mission ready . All

01:35.296 --> 01:37.407
sailors must be mentally , physically

01:37.407 --> 01:39.573
and emotionally strong petty officer ,

01:39.573 --> 01:41.740
Tony to Filipo Fleet Activities Sasebo

01:41.740 --> 01:43.840
Japan Yeah .
