00:04.870 --> 00:06.670
- The readiness exercise we executed

00:06.670 --> 00:08.500
here at RAF Lakenheath this week

00:08.500 --> 00:11.073
lived up to it's name Furious 48.

00:11.170 --> 00:14.070
A lot of great training was
accomplished in just two days.

00:15.580 --> 00:16.860
I'm proud of the work that was done

00:16.860 --> 00:18.730
by the Liberty, wing with our airmen

00:18.730 --> 00:21.200
remaining laser focused on
getting the mission done

00:21.200 --> 00:22.885
despite the great many challenges

00:22.885 --> 00:25.423
that were built into
the training scenarios.

00:25.488 --> 00:27.570
(people talking)

00:27.570 --> 00:29.580
We successfully demonstrated our ability

00:29.580 --> 00:31.503
to sustain combat operations,

00:31.610 --> 00:33.713
through various contingency environments.

00:33.970 --> 00:35.750
With that, we thank our local communities

00:35.750 --> 00:37.550
for their support and understanding,

00:37.740 --> 00:39.530
as this included flying operations

00:39.530 --> 00:41.803
through the night and other disturbances.

00:42.450 --> 00:44.533
Our mission is to maintain a ready force,

00:44.533 --> 00:47.530
capable of deterring and
defeating any adversary

00:47.720 --> 00:50.303
across the full spectrum
of combat operations.

00:50.570 --> 00:52.300
Exercises like this are essential

00:52.300 --> 00:54.550
in ensuring and
demonstrating that readiness.
