00:00.290 --> 00:01.690
- So my name is Corey Bishop

00:01.690 --> 00:05.740
I am the Logistics Manager
here at the 224th Squadron

00:05.740 --> 00:07.240
Detachment One.

00:07.240 --> 00:11.270
So the is a disaster relief bed down set.

00:11.270 --> 00:13.490
So it is a completely self sufficient camp

00:13.490 --> 00:15.824
that can house 150 responders,

00:15.824 --> 00:18.625
provide them with essential utilities,

00:18.625 --> 00:21.760
shower facilities, water
production, latrines,

00:21.760 --> 00:26.120
laundry services, as well as
support at camp operations

00:26.120 --> 00:26.953
as a whole.

00:27.806 --> 00:30.250
So the 200 Red Horse has
actually been appointed as

00:30.250 --> 00:33.220
the pilot unit for the derbis UTC.

00:33.220 --> 00:35.397
That is how we package
equipment and people

00:35.397 --> 00:38.422
to be tasked to go forth
and accomplish a mission.

00:38.422 --> 00:42.000
We have, as the pilot unit for these UTCs

00:42.000 --> 00:43.730
have helped units all over the country

00:43.730 --> 00:45.810
learn how to properly pack and prepare

00:45.810 --> 00:47.370
their equipment for shipment

00:47.370 --> 00:50.330
so that we can minimize issues and delays

00:50.330 --> 00:52.190
when people like those in Puerto Rico,

00:52.190 --> 00:55.040
are really in need of
the support and the help.

00:55.040 --> 00:57.850
So here early this week, I
believe it was Wednesday,

00:57.850 --> 01:00.186
we received notification of a possibility

01:00.186 --> 01:02.207
of sending our kids to Puerto Rico.

01:02.207 --> 01:05.146
We had an amazing response
from our full time workforce

01:05.146 --> 01:06.535
and from our guardsmen,

01:06.535 --> 01:09.680
and we were able to come in
and start the process working.

01:09.680 --> 01:12.330
It's been several long, hard days,

01:12.330 --> 01:14.210
everyone has really,
really pulled together,

01:14.210 --> 01:16.480
done a fantastic job,
we've had amazing support

01:16.480 --> 01:19.570
from the 179th, from the areal squadron,

01:19.570 --> 01:20.890
from the flying guys,

01:20.890 --> 01:23.430
and we're able to get this kit packaged,

01:23.430 --> 01:25.260
palletized, and prepared

01:25.260 --> 01:27.860
to fly to Puerto Rico to
help the people in need.

01:27.860 --> 01:30.450
So at the heart of the National Guard

01:30.450 --> 01:31.970
and the Air National Guard,

01:31.970 --> 01:34.520
is being able to respond
and help the people

01:34.520 --> 01:36.220
of the United States of America,

01:36.220 --> 01:37.850
and the nations that we support

01:37.850 --> 01:39.600
and when there are people in need,

01:39.600 --> 01:42.700
we need to be able to respond
quickly and confidently,

01:42.700 --> 01:44.500
to answer whatever call we're given.

01:45.520 --> 01:47.300
I just would like to say
thank you for all the help

01:47.300 --> 01:48.907
from everyone that's been
a part of this project.

01:48.907 --> 01:50.280
It's been an honor to work with

01:50.280 --> 01:52.683
and I hope we can go do
good work in Puerto Rico.
