00:00.320 --> 00:03.230
(gunshots)

00:03.230 --> 00:04.810
- If I can't count on you from day to day,

00:04.810 --> 00:07.620
week to week, you're doing other things.

00:07.620 --> 00:08.470
You've got all these kind of,

00:08.470 --> 00:10.780
and it's not to say family's
not important in that balance,

00:10.780 --> 00:12.540
all that is still true,

00:12.540 --> 00:15.340
but you've got to be committed
to this noble profession.

00:16.570 --> 00:18.420
And then finally, rewards.

00:18.420 --> 00:19.610
This is kind of a simple one,

00:19.610 --> 00:20.840
but we often overlook it.

00:20.840 --> 00:23.970
What we say is important
versus what we reward

00:23.970 --> 00:25.820
really sends mixed signals

00:25.820 --> 00:28.580
to any given organization
that that's out there.

00:28.580 --> 00:32.270
So if we say that we believe

00:32.270 --> 00:37.270
that optimizing our army to prevail,

00:37.500 --> 00:38.940
to win in the competition period,

00:38.940 --> 00:42.110
and prevail and large scale
ground combat operations,

00:42.110 --> 00:44.530
then what are the things
throughout our force

00:44.530 --> 00:46.910
that we've got to do to
make sure we're rewarding

00:46.910 --> 00:48.900
that kind of behavior?

00:48.900 --> 00:51.690
And not just rewards
in the sense of awards,

00:51.690 --> 00:53.530
but the things we say, the things we do,

00:53.530 --> 00:55.880
where we put our priorities,
where we put our resources,

00:55.880 --> 00:57.550
where we put our money.

00:57.550 --> 00:59.600
All those things are critically important

00:59.600 --> 01:01.583
to ensuring that this all works.
