MM . Yeah . So today

00:05.190 --> 00:07.301
the Armed Services Blood Bank program

00:07.301 --> 00:09.468
teamed up with a single marine program

00:09.468 --> 00:11.357
to host a blood drive here at the

00:11.357 --> 00:13.523
community center . The purpose of this

00:13.523 --> 00:15.790
blood drive is to collect units to

00:15.790 --> 00:19.160
support US pay . Com missions worldwide .

00:20.340 --> 00:23.420
In the event of a mass casualty , they

00:23.420 --> 00:25.476
need blood for transfusion , and our

00:25.476 --> 00:27.531
program helps provide them with that

00:27.531 --> 00:31.480
blood . Each person can donate one pint

00:31.480 --> 00:35.060
of blood per donation and one point is

00:35.060 --> 00:38.960
taken back to our well , the bank and

00:38.960 --> 00:40.760
we separate it into different

00:40.760 --> 00:44.410
components such as red blood cells and

00:44.410 --> 00:47.190
plasma and platelets . And each of

00:47.190 --> 00:49.023
these components can be used for

00:49.023 --> 00:52.950
different life saving measures . Mm
