WEBVTT 00:02.480 --> 00:02.980 So why. 00:04.200 --> 00:04.730 There is. 00:05.800 --> 00:11.360 De I E R ksf. So I am dead jtf forward a surgeon. 00:12.190 --> 00:15.640 I'm slowly it's mining role is actually force health protection. 00:15.910 --> 00:20.550 So my doubt as to keep the marines and the rest of the team here 00:20.580 --> 00:25.410 air force for me um and sailors healthy while they're in country 00:25.440 --> 00:29.200 and keep them safe as far as having a medical evacuation plane 00:29.200 --> 00:35.310 and um and looking at a hospital options for a personnel if they 00:35.310 --> 00:37.800 become injured and then asa thing a plea in to get them out a 00:37.840 --> 00:42.420 century and get them to a back to their family or back to definitive care. 00:43.910 --> 00:47.400 Obviously as a position that I weighed rendered here to. 00:47.930 --> 00:51.890 To anyone that we you know if or out saying operation or something 00:51.890 --> 00:56.760 like that but this challenges that are de really here is to do um. 00:57.350 --> 01:01.250 Stick care for our forces um there are lots of host nation. 01:01.280 --> 01:04.310 I'm for medical teams that are here are close asian teams is 01:04.310 --> 01:08.290 wells for medical teams. They're here. I'm carrying four and 01:08.290 --> 01:12.270 the people of nepal and what we don't wanna do is get no way 01:12.300 --> 01:15.180 of what they're doing the good work that they're doing um our 01:15.180 --> 01:19.230 job is relate to support them and my god this is for the forces 01:19.230 --> 01:20.950 for supporting at that makes sense. 01:22.980 --> 01:27.080 Um well this is my first line of a might skill wine and but I 01:27.080 --> 01:30.800 was here in 2013 as a part of the exercise where we actually 01:30.800 --> 01:33.690 practice that's so um it's. 01:34.350 --> 01:38.220 That say I have to come back and do it for real but it's a Faso 01:38.250 --> 01:41.510 something that we practiced for so it's a really good at great opportunity. 01:42.730 --> 01:46.260 Absolutely well one of the biggest challenges that we identified 01:46.300 --> 01:49.690 as a grew but I'm during operation previously as there's just 01:49.720 --> 01:54.880 a there's a lack of space here is a lack of open space. I'm not 01:54.880 --> 01:59.390 only for aircraft operations but for medical I'm here as well 01:59.390 --> 02:02.350 and say to bring in like a large field hospital or something 02:02.350 --> 02:07.290 like that this is a really a challenge and I'm so that was something 02:07.290 --> 02:11.580 we a plea in on the west side not to do is to try look get options 02:11.950 --> 02:15.490 ought to support for medical teams of with what they're doing 02:15.490 --> 02:18.170 but pasa just pour our forces with the smallest metaphor. 02:18.210 --> 02:22.090 But bring possible just because we know that space is really 02:22.090 --> 02:25.540 an issue the it's a very and tight and constrained area. So that's 02:25.540 --> 02:29.630 probably one of the largest lessons learned um that we had the 02:29.630 --> 02:33.000 other thing is just that infrastructure here. There's um real 02:33.000 --> 02:36.410 public health challenges my background is public health and so 02:36.650 --> 02:41.190 we know that free sample the water infrastructure here is not 02:41.220 --> 02:44.560 that I'm there actually act their baseline now which is very 02:44.560 --> 02:48.520 exciting but it's still really challenging that just to get clean 02:48.520 --> 02:51.520 water hot for the people yourself be safe. 02:52.090 --> 02:55.680 I'm things that we take for granted in the nine States like clean 02:55.680 --> 02:59.480 water and axis to do their really a challenge especially outside 02:59.480 --> 03:00.180 of Pacman do. 03:02.240 --> 03:05.030 Well the biggest thing that we bring I'm just going just six 03:05.260 --> 03:09.860 and the ability to move supplies and personnel um we have out 03:09.860 --> 03:13.860 here right now with huey is I'm not sprays which enemies in platform 03:13.940 --> 03:17.870 bound to work off love and so that is something unique that we 03:17.870 --> 03:22.940 have that no one else has says that ability to come a and respond 03:22.940 --> 03:26.190 and also to be self sustaining. That's a really huge staying 03:26.190 --> 03:29.490 as I go to the meetings for the poor medical teams fantasise. 03:29.490 --> 03:32.250 The fact that if you're gonna coming here work especially outside 03:32.250 --> 03:34.980 of pet mean do you need to be self sustaining and that's when 03:34.980 --> 03:39.060 I'm another unique piece that. I'm martine brings us the ability 03:39.060 --> 03:40.180 to be self sustaining. 03:41.710 --> 03:45.390 Apps lovely um. We're basically moving a lot of relief supplies 03:45.420 --> 03:49.320 the last in them and some that Billy is um soldiers as well and 03:49.540 --> 03:54.810 Wall banks seems constraints um the idea is to get the Napa lee's 03:54.810 --> 03:58.370 out to help their own population and so we're providing them 03:58.370 --> 04:01.940 some strategic left to be of all to do that and so they're getting 04:01.940 --> 04:06.890 out um. There's a helping to restore order and I'm being prepared. 04:07.310 --> 04:10.350 So that we can come back in and distribute help them just to 04:10.350 --> 04:11.870 be supplies their. Population. 04:13.670 --> 04:17.040 I'm the next 48 hours we're just gonna be doing continuing ops. 04:17.070 --> 04:20.860 I'm the same thing. I'm moving not only humanitarian supplies 04:20.860 --> 04:23.800 but also helping than Apple used to get their troops out and 04:23.800 --> 04:27.490 get them resupply um. So that they can continue to operate never 04:27.490 --> 04:30.100 ever mode various because that's where the greatest meat is at 04:30.100 --> 04:31.810 this point is outside of cat did. 04:34.040 --> 04:37.570 I'm always the focus is just keeping people healthy um. 04:37.570 --> 04:40.280 We're constantly doing surveillance to make sure that people 04:40.280 --> 04:42.940 are nixed boasted things. I was out at the plate mind today. 04:43.260 --> 04:46.650 I'm looking at the play nine eight stations and when I'm you 04:46.650 --> 04:50.110 know certainly all of them thought they are cruising pilots. 04:50.110 --> 04:53.570 No they're just the more brown about acquit may it so they need 04:53.570 --> 04:56.270 to be friends is that they're hearing protection things like 04:56.270 --> 04:58.880 that we look you just wanna make sure that every once a safe 04:58.880 --> 05:02.110 and healthy bothered here. But not only on here but when they 05:02.110 --> 05:05.780 go home and so that's our focus of africa lisa the medical side 05:05.780 --> 05:09.860 of the house is ensuring that people are healthy and I'm. 05:10.370 --> 05:13.250 They're ready to read a play when but our mission here is. Over. 05:15.890 --> 05:19.830 Thank you very less forgiving the gap say it talk to and um it's 05:19.860 --> 05:23.760 this is a really amazing experience being out here. I'm with 05:23.760 --> 05:25.870 a really great team doing a real world operation. 05:27.110 --> 05:31.970 Yeah. Um I have my hometown as I like it city Maryland..
