00:00.947 --> 00:03.614
(intense music)

00:05.830 --> 00:07.500
- Hey Marines, I'm Corporal Troy Saunders,

00:07.500 --> 00:09.310
and I'm here at the Golden Gate Bridge

00:09.554 --> 00:12.040
in San Francisco, California,
for Fleet Week San Francisco.

00:12.040 --> 00:14.960
From October 1st through
8th, Marines and sailors

00:14.960 --> 00:17.920
offer local San Francisco
residents a chance to interact

00:17.920 --> 00:20.250
firsthand with the nation's sea services

00:20.250 --> 00:22.760
through various exercises
and community events.

00:22.760 --> 00:25.320
San Francisco Fleet Week is
unique in that it provides

00:25.320 --> 00:28.020
local first responders
an opportunity to partner

00:28.020 --> 00:30.030
with the nation's military services,

00:30.030 --> 00:31.180
in order to better prepare

00:31.180 --> 00:33.240
for potential humanitarian assistance

00:33.240 --> 00:34.853
or disaster relief efforts.

00:34.920 --> 00:36.740
Lieutenant General Joseph Osterman,

00:36.740 --> 00:39.440
Commanding General of First
Marine Expeditionary Force,

00:39.440 --> 00:41.090
was also there, and had this to say

00:41.090 --> 00:42.540
about this year's Fleet Week.

00:43.240 --> 00:44.730
- The two days that
I've had up here so far

00:44.963 --> 00:45.796
have been absolutely fantastic,

00:45.796 --> 00:47.643
tremendous outreach by the community,

00:47.910 --> 00:50.980
it's just been a fantastic
opportunity to see

00:50.980 --> 00:53.370
the greatness of this city,
and all the really wonderful

00:53.370 --> 00:55.403
things that San Francisco has to offer.

00:55.670 --> 00:57.463
- [Troy] And that's your Marine Minute.
