00:03.140 --> 00:07.010
three 7

00:07.010 --> 00:09.340
28th Air Mobility Squadron are portion

00:09.340 --> 00:11.640
of Operation Allies Refuge . We're a

00:11.640 --> 00:14.400
nodal point here in the system and as

00:14.400 --> 00:16.511
we see our other nodal points further

00:16.511 --> 00:18.456
out forward deployed right there ,

00:18.456 --> 00:20.622
getting stressed under the movement of

00:20.622 --> 00:22.790
all of the afghan travelers , all of

00:22.790 --> 00:24.623
our civilians , everybody in the

00:24.623 --> 00:26.679
evacuation operation that's going on

00:26.679 --> 00:28.568
right now , we're not being fully

00:28.568 --> 00:30.790
stressed so we push our guys forward to

00:30.790 --> 00:32.846
help support and augment those other

00:32.846 --> 00:34.957
nodal points to ensure that they have

00:34.957 --> 00:37.068
the aerial port , aerial porters that

00:37.068 --> 00:39.234
they need to have the maintainers they

00:39.234 --> 00:41.401
need , we can keep the aircraft moving

00:41.401 --> 00:43.568
flowing efficiently through the system

00:43.568 --> 00:45.790
to ensure a nice orderly evacuation and

00:45.840 --> 00:47.840
get everybody out of harm's way and

00:47.840 --> 00:50.750
into a safe empire . We got an entire

00:50.750 --> 00:53.310
team here . I have roughly around 207

00:53.320 --> 00:55.431
folks , but we took a handful because

00:55.431 --> 00:57.542
we have to keep operations here going

00:57.542 --> 00:59.598
right . We got to keep the fires lit

00:59.598 --> 01:01.653
and operations going . So our airmen

01:01.653 --> 01:03.931
maintain a constant state of readiness ,

01:03.931 --> 01:05.764
whether it's mental , physical ,

01:05.764 --> 01:07.542
spiritual , emotional , they're

01:07.542 --> 01:09.653
constantly ready . So we have to have

01:09.653 --> 01:11.764
our team here ready to go . So as far

01:11.764 --> 01:13.931
as who's supporting , We've got the 24

01:13.931 --> 01:16.098
that went forward . We got maintainers

01:16.098 --> 01:16.040
that are following them all said we've

01:16.040 --> 01:19.090
got about 33 guys off station , but the

01:19.090 --> 01:20.960
home team is keeping things going
