00:02.130 --> 00:04.470
- [Demetrius] US Army
leaderships hosts a town hall

00:04.470 --> 00:06.870
at Camp George inviting
service members, families,

00:06.870 --> 00:09.410
and DoD civilians to
candidly discuss the state

00:09.410 --> 00:10.860
of their military quarters.

00:10.860 --> 00:13.420
This is part of a DoD
initiative to provide safe,

00:13.420 --> 00:15.490
secure, and high-quality family housing

00:15.490 --> 00:18.210
and barracks facilities
to installation residents.

00:18.210 --> 00:19.690
- Why are we here?

00:19.690 --> 00:20.770
This is an issue right now

00:20.770 --> 00:22.190
because the Secretary of the Army,

00:22.190 --> 00:23.240
the Chief of Staff of the Army,

00:23.240 --> 00:24.820
and the Sergeant Major of the Army

00:24.820 --> 00:26.480
have identified a problem,

00:26.480 --> 00:28.360
and they're putting the resources,

00:28.360 --> 00:30.300
i.e. our time and money and effort,

00:30.300 --> 00:32.120
into fixing these problems.

00:32.120 --> 00:33.700
- [Demetrius] Brigadier
General Patrick Donahoe,

00:33.700 --> 00:36.400
Deputy Commanding General
for Operations, Eighth Army,

00:36.400 --> 00:38.380
addressed Area Four over
the radio to tell us

00:38.380 --> 00:40.465
why resident input is important.

00:40.465 --> 00:44.180
- It's a great opportunity
for us to be very, very candid

00:44.180 --> 00:46.570
with our leadership over
the requirements we've got

00:46.570 --> 00:47.403
in our housing,

00:47.403 --> 00:49.160
and then to get feedback
from the leadership.

00:49.160 --> 00:52.180
More importantly, the
garrison is there to take down

00:52.180 --> 00:54.300
every problem that's brought up,

00:54.300 --> 00:56.264
so that they can follow up on it.

00:56.264 --> 00:57.899

Class Demetrius Kennon.
