WEBVTT 00:14.620 --> 00:19.980 That's the hall and I T and the deputy chief of engineers of 00:19.980 --> 00:22.290 the United States Simon and the deputy commanding general of 00:22.290 --> 00:23.260 the corps of engineers. 00:24.560 --> 00:26.410 But first question is what brings. 00:26.990 --> 00:31.960 We're. As it deputy chief of engineers of the us army ended and 00:31.960 --> 00:35.150 that dedicated to the court engineers it's important that awesome 00:35.150 --> 00:38.210 washington DC to get out the scene of the ball and understand 00:38.210 --> 00:40.630 the projects. Oh we're dough ensemble early on a 10 day trip 00:40.950 --> 00:44.770 to be able to visit construction so where do one in korea what 00:44.770 --> 00:48.710 we'd done down a well what we're do one here on japan today specifically 00:48.710 --> 00:51.540 you'll Coen aided and abetted continue to go one to see what 00:51.540 --> 00:54.990 we're going at all white the quite like committed to pay called 00:55.170 --> 00:57.260 we're looking at but said to see on track to make sure there 00:57.260 --> 01:00.340 were stepping up to be able to deliver of the best the solely 01:00.340 --> 01:03.900 is we can the Bo the major we're taking care of our service members 01:04.120 --> 01:07.420 and the operational requirements of this particular theater so 01:07.420 --> 01:11.220 today was manly a date to be a big down on the ground and see 01:11.220 --> 01:14.150 the construction that would do when you're in support of the 01:14.150 --> 01:17.720 forces here. I think the main thing that I wanna stressed is 01:17.720 --> 01:21.260 that this is not just about particular surfaces where do one 01:21.260 --> 01:24.760 of the out for the marines an awful lot for the navy said that 01:24.760 --> 01:28.600 for the air force in the army for the biggest supporters this 01:28.600 --> 01:32.590 is it installation this task to be able to take up all the functions 01:32.810 --> 01:35.760 that we need to take care of our service members and a beyond 01:35.760 --> 01:39.010 the taker their families. So all those things that we're building 01:39.010 --> 01:42.040 for would go and understood the idea of the school's. I've met 01:42.040 --> 01:45.060 with the yet the head of the on pacific regions school. 01:45.230 --> 01:49.710 Yeah. I'm always is that the yesterday and others impressed with. 01:51.030 --> 01:53.800 The the dough de it has poured into these schools and it's in 01:53.800 --> 01:56.550 comment that we continue to keep that sample of what quality 01:56.750 --> 01:59.900 as well cut knows buildings amid about what evidence of the defense 01:59.900 --> 02:03.440 logistics agency by bring instill that forms a and to be able 02:03.440 --> 02:06.280 to make sure we can we see all the different uh crap but about 02:06.280 --> 02:09.250 here to lose a for all the things house and we gotta get that 02:09.250 --> 02:12.560 right eye by housing up by the time for this year on the one 02:12.560 --> 02:15.970 that they do could said to our old the other support the sold 02:15.970 --> 02:19.590 is where the talks about things like that due acts are the things 02:19.590 --> 02:22.760 for them service members needs. It's important that we continue 02:22.760 --> 02:26.810 to have the entire base with this security. It means the operation 02:26.810 --> 02:29.500 requirements than the support the soda for the sandwich. 02:30.150 --> 02:31.350 I'm not sir paul. 02:32.270 --> 02:34.390 Tortilla how do you start to. 02:35.780 --> 02:38.960 By the noticed a 35 years and I that uh. Well the world a close 02:38.960 --> 02:42.720 at a hundred and 32 nations right now we're building about 30 billion dollars 02:42.720 --> 02:46.040 a year brought day of my visit here today 80 woke owning the 02:46.040 --> 02:49.720 Wall the same just completely blows know why this is absolutely 02:49.810 --> 02:53.860 call it the great work and automate that is how the entire team 02:53.860 --> 02:54.750 is working together. 02:55.760 --> 02:58.890 The war is engineers in Sri video years. We've gotta be a bit 02:58.890 --> 03:03.090 of the buildings that ought on time carefully ahead of schedule 03:03.290 --> 03:06.310 was gonna be able to deliver buildings that are that cost. 03:06.920 --> 03:11.210 Fleet under because then that's most important is quietly sometimes 03:11.210 --> 03:14.290 of we had challenges would time in class that those things could 03:14.290 --> 03:14.970 be overcome. 03:15.590 --> 03:19.390 Do that this artist numbers about of this particular a base but 03:19.420 --> 03:22.750 actually have a habit with a desert us about that have on the 03:22.750 --> 03:25.690 run like what the them and the support facilities and the quit. 03:26.540 --> 03:30.190 The japanese contractor said done you're on the with a with the 03:30.190 --> 03:33.010 other teams oversight has really been about what I would say 03:33.010 --> 03:36.430 well class and stated the are the same it is work and this is 03:36.430 --> 03:40.100 the Are because we've been working here for about 14 years and 03:40.100 --> 03:42.770 so those are you of the do you really was a might not know this 03:42.770 --> 03:46.630 is a lot about how to reposition so wishes to be all the continue 03:46.630 --> 03:50.560 to be able to increase operational flexibility. So as to raw 03:50.560 --> 03:54.140 japan and up and a lot of looked in hand in hand with the government 03:54.140 --> 03:58.050 of japan we a bit below that seemed a japanese forces in the 03:58.050 --> 04:02.000 us forces of the services to be able to take and move them and 04:02.000 --> 04:05.810 locations where they were without more operational flexibility 04:05.970 --> 04:09.380 and that's what's happening here. But it does a great ability 04:09.380 --> 04:10.860 to be able to perform their mission. 04:11.400 --> 04:15.490 Better support the sony's and odyssey force protection. So well 04:15.520 --> 04:19.360 above and beyond we're on schedule we're on track but this is 04:19.360 --> 04:22.620 gonna continue to the source of woke up or use a dead but the 04:22.620 --> 04:26.230 a debate thing is this is a very very hard project we head. 04:26.930 --> 04:29.910 Deliberate tight space ear. So the older one applauded the new 04:29.940 --> 04:34.250 supply name was actually move their run like a alipay into into 04:34.250 --> 04:37.370 the ocean and that was done several years ago this all behind 04:37.370 --> 04:40.040 me is where that that's all nuland yet that. 04:40.860 --> 04:44.350 Pius down in the ground yet to be a with a dozen the stability 04:44.350 --> 04:48.050 of stuff out there and in the bid this new construction than 04:48.050 --> 04:52.340 top was actually feel maternal joke not only is it when the work 04:52.550 --> 04:56.050 that than you think is it it's very challenging engineering what 04:56.360 --> 05:00.070 the lamb it just and that the flight 14 along we put in orbit 05:00.070 --> 05:04.210 about 350 million dollars out here. This particular year were 05:04.210 --> 05:08.280 put number of 750 million dollars and I wanna continue to besides 05:08.500 --> 05:12.070 the dad is a partnership between the government of japan in the 05:12.070 --> 05:15.060 United States work and side-by-side hand in hand. 05:15.620 --> 05:18.390 Of the made sure that we could continue to be able to ride the 05:18.390 --> 05:20.410 whatever the capabilities many different a Street. 05:21.020 --> 05:22.250 It was a so let's. 05:22.940 --> 05:25.720 That's it back but just as somebody who's been in the service 05:25.720 --> 05:29.280 for a lot more time. I had a son that's a been deployed twice 05:29.280 --> 05:33.170 duet than a stand up and I know what that is like the piano up 05:33.170 --> 05:36.780 cannot be honest bowels top be in a service member this out there. 05:36.900 --> 05:39.900 I wanna fact the so responders in this particular region for 05:39.900 --> 05:42.810 this in a they stated that we asked an awful lot of you media 05:42.810 --> 05:45.900 view of that in harm's way in combat a now you're the played 05:45.900 --> 05:49.040 a lot of times away from family is over here. But that I'm just 05:49.070 --> 05:52.480 below the lamp last by the attitude of what I see you with the 05:52.480 --> 05:55.560 leaders and the service numbers and a commitment of. 05:56.120 --> 05:59.720 Liam class by this relationship between the two countries and 05:59.720 --> 06:03.310 I think it is I walked out here. It's not about buildings and 06:03.310 --> 06:06.850 it's not about runways and he's not about houses. What's most 06:06.850 --> 06:10.210 important that we continue to build a so why ants between the 06:10.210 --> 06:13.830 government of japan and the government United States and we do 06:13.950 --> 06:16.950 that they'd be all the make a country straw goat at the same 06:16.950 --> 06:21.140 time they'd be able to um our security posture in a region that 06:21.140 --> 06:24.480 death and factor ever is gonna some of this data but these countries 06:24.480 --> 06:27.390 and harms away with a hero to be able to continue to protect 06:27.390 --> 06:31.010 this region. So that you are no more got a great team on the ground. 06:31.210 --> 06:36.050 It's a great lamb than those ramp last at those of us dax bear 06:36.210 --> 06:39.600 or a number of japan goes in the gym it's your money is going 06:39.600 --> 06:43.440 to deliver a good use because the quality of its absolute top-notch 06:43.740 --> 06:46.300 to facts. I have any opportunity to be you'll end up on that 06:46.300 --> 06:49.830 far the coming back and say Abacus auctioned on. Antennas..
