So I hope everyone has a 01:00.869 --> 01:02.924 chance to see this town hall one . I 01:02.924 --> 01:05.091 think the town halls are important for 01:05.091 --> 01:07.313 the command as a whole . We're going to 01:07.313 --> 01:07.240 go through a lot of information today . 01:07.240 --> 01:09.296 There's a lot of questions that came 01:09.296 --> 01:11.518 from the field we're gonna talk about . 01:11.518 --> 01:13.629 We're gonna get some updates from our 01:13.629 --> 01:15.740 directorates on on some major aspects 01:15.740 --> 01:15.680 of what's going on across the command . 01:15.830 --> 01:17.774 But I wanted to take a few minutes 01:17.774 --> 01:19.774 before we do that just to introduce 01:19.774 --> 01:22.380 myself . So I've been in command um the 01:22.380 --> 01:25.250 US Capcom for just over a month now and 01:25.250 --> 01:27.250 I've gotten around to meet a lot of 01:27.250 --> 01:29.950 people . I hope to get out across more 01:29.950 --> 01:31.950 of Netcom obviously over the coming 01:31.950 --> 01:34.172 months to meet more . But I just wanted 01:34.172 --> 01:36.172 to introduce myself let people know 01:36.172 --> 01:38.283 kind of who I am just as a person . I 01:38.283 --> 01:40.617 think that's helpful for people to know . 01:40.617 --> 01:42.617 You know just just who you are as a 01:42.617 --> 01:42.550 person so you know might be more 01:42.550 --> 01:44.661 relatable . So when you find out in a 01:44.661 --> 01:46.717 moment that I like to ski , you know 01:46.717 --> 01:48.883 maybe you like to ski or snowboard and 01:48.883 --> 01:48.800 it's just a natural topic of 01:48.800 --> 01:50.856 conversation and just to get to know 01:50.856 --> 01:52.967 somebody a little bit personally . So 01:52.967 --> 01:54.967 you understand um a little bit more 01:54.967 --> 01:57.078 about who they are and then I'm gonna 01:57.078 --> 01:59.189 go through my leadership philosophy , 01:59.189 --> 02:01.411 that's kind of my leadership philosophy 02:01.411 --> 02:03.467 for years and then how I turned that 02:03.467 --> 02:05.689 leadership philosophy into a couple few 02:05.689 --> 02:09.100 critical aspects for command and so 02:09.100 --> 02:11.290 we'll walk through those , we got my 02:11.290 --> 02:13.346 first three pictures , I'll tell you 02:13.346 --> 02:16.130 when to go next . Um So we'll start 02:16.130 --> 02:18.690 with that first . So who am I ? I'll 02:18.690 --> 02:20.900 get to the first left picture there is 02:20.910 --> 02:23.500 um I am the product of two school 02:23.500 --> 02:25.444 teachers . Both of my parents were 02:25.444 --> 02:27.500 teachers , my mom an english teacher 02:27.500 --> 02:29.722 and turn librarian and my dad a phys ed 02:29.722 --> 02:31.833 teacher . And so I grew up on Eastern 02:31.833 --> 02:34.740 Long Island in new york and you know 02:34.740 --> 02:36.684 that's that's who I had is my role 02:36.684 --> 02:38.573 models which is great . I grew up 02:38.573 --> 02:40.796 wanting to be a teacher all my life and 02:40.796 --> 02:40.400 see how well that worked out . I'm not 02:40.400 --> 02:43.830 there . Um But those two pictures there 02:43.830 --> 02:46.450 exemplify kind of what I did uh during 02:46.450 --> 02:48.561 my childhood I spent a lot of time on 02:48.561 --> 02:50.783 the beach . My dad was a in addition to 02:50.783 --> 02:53.006 being a pe teacher , he was a lifeguard 02:53.006 --> 02:55.228 in the summers , so he's a lifeguard in 02:55.228 --> 02:57.450 the summer , so that's normally where I 02:57.450 --> 02:57.420 spent my days was whatever beach he was 02:57.420 --> 02:59.531 lifeguarding at . So I spent a lot of 02:59.531 --> 03:01.753 time in the water on the south shore of 03:01.753 --> 03:03.920 Long Island and then also uh horseback 03:03.920 --> 03:06.031 riding . My mom was big into horses , 03:06.031 --> 03:08.087 she'd had horses all her life . So I 03:08.087 --> 03:10.253 spent a lot of time riding as a kid as 03:10.253 --> 03:12.253 well , so if you hit the next one , 03:12.253 --> 03:14.309 there you go . Um This is what I did 03:14.309 --> 03:16.420 throughout the rest of my childhood . 03:16.420 --> 03:18.476 Those I pretty much if you ask me if 03:18.476 --> 03:20.698 you name a sport , I probably played it 03:20.698 --> 03:19.980 at some point in time . As I said again , 03:19.980 --> 03:22.220 my dad was a P . E . Teacher , there 03:22.220 --> 03:24.442 was no option for us not to play sports 03:24.442 --> 03:26.750 or to be active or doing something . So 03:27.140 --> 03:29.307 I pretty much tried everything . These 03:29.307 --> 03:31.362 are these were the activities that I 03:31.362 --> 03:33.860 attended to do the most . Um field 03:33.860 --> 03:35.916 hockey , softball , volleyball , and 03:35.916 --> 03:38.138 basketball . Throughout high school . I 03:38.138 --> 03:39.860 gave up swimming and I gave up 03:39.860 --> 03:41.916 gymnastics . The bottom left . My my 03:41.916 --> 03:44.082 goal was to be , you know , I was like 03:44.082 --> 03:43.940 10 years old , I wanted to be in the 03:43.940 --> 03:45.940 olympics for gymnastics . I watched 03:45.940 --> 03:48.162 them , I'm like this is gonna be me and 03:48.162 --> 03:50.273 I'm 59 , I was 58 when I was 12 years 03:50.273 --> 03:52.440 old and they're like this is not gonna 03:52.440 --> 03:54.730 work for you . So um I had given that 03:54.730 --> 03:57.320 up but I ended up , you know , that's I 03:57.320 --> 04:01.070 spent I spent my childhood not sitting 04:01.070 --> 04:03.126 still very much , there was a lot of 04:03.126 --> 04:05.280 moving and uh that's just how , how I 04:05.280 --> 04:07.336 grew up , just always , always doing 04:07.336 --> 04:09.558 something and always active . Um If you 04:09.558 --> 04:11.613 had the one more please , I ended up 04:11.613 --> 04:14.790 going to uh West Point for school , um 04:14.790 --> 04:18.300 ended up there kind of by accident only 04:18.300 --> 04:20.467 because I didn't really know what else 04:20.467 --> 04:22.633 I wanted to do with my life . I didn't 04:22.633 --> 04:24.800 have the money for school . Again , my 04:24.800 --> 04:26.800 parents were school teachers and my 04:26.800 --> 04:28.911 brother was already at West Point and 04:28.911 --> 04:31.133 there's a longer story behind how I got 04:31.133 --> 04:33.300 there , but short story in the end , I 04:33.300 --> 04:35.578 was like , I'll try this out , why not ? 04:35.578 --> 04:38.410 Um and lo and behold four years later I 04:38.420 --> 04:40.530 graduated and if you click one more 04:40.530 --> 04:42.440 please and commissioned a second 04:42.440 --> 04:44.496 Lieutenant in the Adjutant General's 04:44.496 --> 04:46.607 Corps . So a geek or for those of you 04:46.607 --> 04:48.718 who are an army , um that's our human 04:48.718 --> 04:50.829 resources personnel side of the House 04:50.829 --> 04:53.750 Branch for the Army . So um that's when 04:53.750 --> 04:55.760 I got there . My four years at West 04:55.760 --> 04:57.950 Point forgot to mention , I majored in 04:58.440 --> 05:01.650 environmental engineering , I am a 05:02.340 --> 05:04.673 trained and I'm a professional engineer , 05:04.673 --> 05:06.896 took that exam as well , have ever once 05:06.896 --> 05:09.260 in my life use that , nope . Not at all 05:09.640 --> 05:11.751 a commission says uh I didn't general 05:11.751 --> 05:13.862 corps officer , which I said so HR is 05:13.862 --> 05:15.751 what I've done . Um I just played 05:15.751 --> 05:17.862 softball for my four years that I was 05:17.862 --> 05:19.918 there at West Point . So that pretty 05:19.918 --> 05:22.140 much summed up , you know my time there 05:22.140 --> 05:24.251 at school was either playing softball 05:24.251 --> 05:26.418 or were studying for those engineering 05:26.418 --> 05:28.760 type exams . So the entire time I've 05:28.760 --> 05:30.982 been in the army , been in the army now 05:30.982 --> 05:33.290 for 26 years again . H . R . G . 05:33.290 --> 05:36.750 Officer , about two thirds of my time 05:36.760 --> 05:38.760 has been spent doing those types of 05:38.760 --> 05:40.816 jobs . I did get back after I talked 05:40.816 --> 05:42.760 about before I was wanting to be a 05:42.760 --> 05:44.982 teacher , I managed to do that . I went 05:44.982 --> 05:47.204 back and taught at West Point for three 05:47.204 --> 05:49.038 years . Um And I also ran an RTC 05:49.038 --> 05:51.260 program at University of north Carolina 05:51.260 --> 05:53.427 chapel hill for three years . Um And I 05:53.427 --> 05:55.316 also taught for you and see as an 05:55.316 --> 05:57.482 adjunct professor while I was there in 05:57.482 --> 05:59.649 geography . So I got my opportunity to 05:59.649 --> 06:01.816 the teaching thing for about six years 06:01.816 --> 06:04.038 of my career , which was great . Um And 06:04.038 --> 06:06.149 then I've done a couple of other odds 06:06.149 --> 06:08.371 and ends types of things for the army . 06:08.371 --> 06:10.538 That's not exactly personnel related . 06:10.538 --> 06:12.538 Most recently my last assignment um 06:12.538 --> 06:14.704 commanded the marketing and engagement 06:14.704 --> 06:17.080 brigade at fort Knox which basically 06:17.080 --> 06:19.191 the tactical arm of marketing for the 06:19.191 --> 06:21.550 army . So we have a strategic lens that 06:21.550 --> 06:23.772 we do for marketing for the army . This 06:23.772 --> 06:25.939 is the tactical side of the house . So 06:25.939 --> 06:29.750 the um in person um that whether it's 06:29.750 --> 06:31.917 your your Golden Knight parachute team 06:31.917 --> 06:34.250 or your marksmanship athletes that go 06:34.250 --> 06:36.540 to the olympics or the myriad of 06:36.540 --> 06:38.596 tractor trailers that the army has , 06:38.596 --> 06:41.020 that have virtual reality opportunities 06:41.020 --> 06:43.076 inside them for people to experience 06:43.076 --> 06:45.080 what life is like to be as a as a 06:45.080 --> 06:47.250 soldier . Um That's what I had for the 06:47.250 --> 06:50.110 last two years is what I experienced . 06:50.120 --> 06:53.990 Um and then I had the opportunity to um 06:54.000 --> 06:56.333 my boss at the time brought up the idea , 06:56.333 --> 06:58.500 he said , hey us Mipcom is looking for 06:58.500 --> 07:00.722 their next commander . You know , would 07:00.722 --> 07:02.889 you like to put your name in the hat ? 07:02.889 --> 07:02.260 And I jumped at the idea because I 07:02.260 --> 07:04.330 absolutely loved my time and Netcom 07:04.340 --> 07:06.370 back from 14 to 16 when I was at 07:06.370 --> 07:09.620 Baltimore and I said absolutely you 07:09.620 --> 07:11.880 know , and he put my name forward and 07:11.880 --> 07:14.047 went through the interview process and 07:14.047 --> 07:15.880 here I am and I couldn't be more 07:15.880 --> 07:18.102 excited to be where I am . I really , I 07:18.102 --> 07:18.010 mean I asked for this , I wanted it 07:18.020 --> 07:20.131 because I remember what life was like 07:20.131 --> 07:22.450 um when I was at Baltimore and I really 07:22.450 --> 07:24.561 believe in the mission of what we are 07:24.561 --> 07:26.672 doing the holistic mission of what we 07:26.672 --> 07:28.783 do here at U .

And 09:51.159 --> 09:53.326 these are just some of the things that 09:53.326 --> 09:55.492 we enjoy doing as a family . So I will 09:55.492 --> 09:57.659 always support army football rule beat 09:57.659 --> 09:59.714 navy every year . We'll have a great 09:59.714 --> 09:59.400 rivalry coming up and we're gonna be 09:59.400 --> 10:01.622 Air Force too by the way this year . So 10:01.840 --> 10:04.007 it would be a fun time this fall , but 10:04.007 --> 10:06.173 that's uh my youngest Brayden and I at 10:06.173 --> 10:08.780 an army Navy football game , our family 10:08.780 --> 10:10.891 is big and the scuba diving , we like 10:10.891 --> 10:13.058 to like to be in the water again . And 10:13.058 --> 10:15.169 so scuba diving is a fun family event 10:15.169 --> 10:17.280 that we like to do a picture of a , I 10:17.280 --> 10:19.391 think that's a high school graduation 10:19.391 --> 10:21.558 for one and then of course skiing . So 10:21.558 --> 10:23.780 those are pretty much we're very active 10:23.780 --> 10:23.620 family . So we'd like to be out and 10:23.620 --> 10:26.620 about and doing stuff . So anyway , 10:26.630 --> 10:29.940 that kind of sums up family . So I will 10:29.940 --> 10:32.107 move on to the next . So my leadership 10:32.107 --> 10:34.218 philosophy , so go to the first one , 10:34.218 --> 10:37.250 please do your best every day . So what 10:37.250 --> 10:39.194 I'm going to go through here is my 10:39.194 --> 10:41.417 leadership philosophy as a whole . Just 10:41.440 --> 10:43.551 me as a leader that I've had the same 10:43.551 --> 10:45.496 philosophy , pretty much tweaked a 10:45.496 --> 10:47.718 little bit for several years , but it's 10:47.718 --> 10:49.773 doing your best and I expect that of 10:49.773 --> 10:51.829 everybody and your best is different 10:51.829 --> 10:53.884 from the person that's next to you . 10:53.884 --> 10:55.773 Everyone has their own individual 10:55.773 --> 10:57.662 strengths and weaknesses and your 10:57.662 --> 10:59.773 strengths merged with somebody else's 10:59.773 --> 10:59.530 weaknesses helped make our team 10:59.530 --> 11:01.930 stronger . So it's what's your best 11:01.940 --> 11:04.162 every day is what I'm asking from you . 11:04.162 --> 11:06.218 I'm not asking you to be better than 11:06.218 --> 11:08.440 the person next to you . I'm asking you 11:08.440 --> 11:10.662 to do the best that you can be and part 11:10.662 --> 11:12.773 of being your best is improving every 11:12.773 --> 11:12.370 day , right ? Everyone should always 11:12.370 --> 11:14.430 look to improve to grow to learn 11:14.430 --> 11:16.208 something new and that could be 11:16.208 --> 11:18.041 something related to your job or 11:18.041 --> 11:20.374 something related to your personal life . 11:20.374 --> 11:22.541 Um You know , I often say I joke , I I 11:22.541 --> 11:24.597 learned how to you know argue better 11:24.597 --> 11:26.708 with my husband yesterday because you 11:26.708 --> 11:28.763 can always improve upon that and get 11:28.763 --> 11:30.763 something out of it . But so always 11:30.763 --> 11:33.097 improve , learn something new every day , 11:33.097 --> 11:35.152 Be better person today than you were 11:35.152 --> 11:37.319 yesterday and continually move forward 11:37.319 --> 11:36.830 if we don't move forward , we're 11:36.830 --> 11:38.950 standing still . Um and if you stand 11:38.950 --> 11:41.006 still other people are going to pass 11:41.006 --> 11:43.172 you by . So continually moving forward 11:43.172 --> 11:45.061 and being the best version of you 11:45.061 --> 11:47.228 that's possible is what I ask um of of 11:47.228 --> 11:49.283 everyone across U . S . Mint . Com , 11:49.283 --> 11:51.870 next please be a team member . So being 11:51.870 --> 11:54.037 a team member , a team player , we all 11:54.037 --> 11:56.148 hear that I mean , but I fully expect 11:56.148 --> 11:58.092 we're not in competition with each 11:58.092 --> 12:00.314 other . We're in a collective effort to 12:00.314 --> 12:02.314 achieve our mission . So I ask that 12:02.314 --> 12:02.070 everybody really , you know 12:02.070 --> 12:04.292 wholeheartedly look at , how can I be a 12:04.292 --> 12:06.403 better team member to the person that 12:06.403 --> 12:08.570 sits right next to me or a person that 12:08.570 --> 12:10.792 may Maybe , you know , 300 miles away , 12:10.792 --> 12:12.903 how can I be the best team member and 12:12.903 --> 12:14.570 teammate that I can be . Next 12:15.140 --> 12:17.600 professionalism and do two more clicks , 12:17.600 --> 12:20.350 please , professionalism and standards 12:20.350 --> 12:24.070 and discipline . Um , you can read what 12:24.070 --> 12:26.070 those are . I mean , everyone knows 12:26.070 --> 12:27.792 that being a professional , um 12:27.792 --> 12:29.459 upholding standards and being 12:29.459 --> 12:31.570 disciplined and how we do that . Uh , 12:31.570 --> 12:33.792 those are pretty straightforward . It's 12:33.792 --> 12:33.670 what , you know , it's , it's a basic 12:33.680 --> 12:36.730 expectations of individuals and last 12:36.740 --> 12:38.796 taking care of our service members , 12:38.796 --> 12:41.018 civilians and families . So taking care 12:41.018 --> 12:43.129 of each other . And again , that's if 12:43.129 --> 12:43.020 your supervisor , that's taking care of 12:43.020 --> 12:45.076 all those folks within , within your 12:45.076 --> 12:47.230 care as a supervisor . But as a 12:47.230 --> 12:49.397 teammate or appear it's taking care of 12:49.397 --> 12:51.674 that person that's sitting next to you . 12:51.674 --> 12:53.786 It's how do we ask , you know , hey , 12:53.786 --> 12:55.674 you know , you're walking into an 12:55.674 --> 12:55.630 office every day and you're dealing 12:55.630 --> 12:57.797 with people each day , you know , when 12:57.797 --> 13:00.130 someone's off , if you know that person , 13:00.130 --> 13:02.408 be a good , a good teammate , you know , 13:02.408 --> 13:04.519 that person and you know , if someone 13:04.519 --> 13:06.741 is not not doing well that day or might 13:06.741 --> 13:08.908 need a little extra help or might need 13:08.908 --> 13:11.019 a , you know , an extra smile or just 13:11.019 --> 13:10.980 asking how they're doing . And so 13:10.980 --> 13:13.202 taking care of our people is doing that 13:13.202 --> 13:15.369 as well as doing the larger aspects of 13:15.369 --> 13:17.536 taking care of our employees . So take 13:17.536 --> 13:19.647 care of your teammates , take care of 13:19.647 --> 13:21.758 those people that sit next to you day 13:21.758 --> 13:25.630 in and day out next slide please . So 13:25.640 --> 13:27.862 taking what my leadership philosophy is 13:27.862 --> 13:29.910 and putting them into three command 13:29.910 --> 13:32.077 imperatives , commitment , culture and 13:32.077 --> 13:34.077 communication . So it's it's pretty 13:34.077 --> 13:36.480 basic three C's but you can pretty much , 13:36.480 --> 13:38.702 you can take aspects of what you saw my 13:38.702 --> 13:40.720 leadership philosophy before and 13:40.730 --> 13:42.897 categorize them into these three areas 13:42.897 --> 13:45.230 of commitment culture and communication . 13:45.230 --> 13:47.452 Now this is my power point presentation 13:47.452 --> 13:49.786 skills . As you see , I'm not very good . 13:49.786 --> 13:51.952 What comes out officially from Piaggio 13:51.952 --> 13:54.174 to be produced later will be much nicer 13:54.174 --> 13:56.397 pretty document , you know , it can get 13:56.397 --> 13:58.508 hung on the wall . This is uh this is 13:58.508 --> 14:00.730 just kind of my way to get it out there 14:00.730 --> 14:02.730 for my thought process . But if you 14:02.730 --> 14:04.786 look , you'll see the first word for 14:04.786 --> 14:07.008 commitment culture and communication is 14:07.008 --> 14:09.008 all teamwork . If we don't act as a 14:09.008 --> 14:08.960 team , if we don't work as a team , 14:08.960 --> 14:10.738 we're not going to get anything 14:10.738 --> 14:12.793 accomplished , we're not going to be 14:12.793 --> 14:14.960 successful . Um and professionalism is 14:14.960 --> 14:17.127 on all three and doing your best every 14:17.127 --> 14:19.238 day , you know , all very important . 14:19.340 --> 14:21.396 But so if we look across those three 14:21.396 --> 14:23.562 commitment culture and communication , 14:23.562 --> 14:25.673 if we do those three things solidly , 14:25.673 --> 14:27.290 we will be successful as an 14:27.290 --> 14:29.346 organization as a command in meeting 14:29.346 --> 14:31.346 our mission and our vision and what 14:31.346 --> 14:33.512 we're after to get , you know , to get 14:33.512 --> 14:36.610 accomplished our next , the next slide , 14:36.620 --> 14:38.676 I'm going to go through this again , 14:38.676 --> 14:38.640 I'm not going to read this all , you 14:38.640 --> 14:40.696 can see this , but it's kind of what 14:40.696 --> 14:43.820 you can expect from me , right ? So my 14:43.820 --> 14:46.500 job here is the bottom line , I work 14:46.500 --> 14:48.556 for you right ? I'm working for this 14:48.556 --> 14:50.833 organization , I'm a teammate with you , 14:50.833 --> 14:53.056 I happen to be the commander of U . S . 14:53.056 --> 14:55.278 Map calm , but I work for you and I'm a 14:55.278 --> 14:57.360 member of the team with you . Um all 14:57.360 --> 14:59.350 those pieces above of what you can 14:59.350 --> 15:01.572 expect from me kind of all gets down to 15:01.572 --> 15:03.794 the bottom that I'm working for you and 15:03.794 --> 15:06.017 I'm here to fight for those resources , 15:06.017 --> 15:08.183 the tools you need to be your champion 15:08.183 --> 15:10.183 on what you've done great um to get 15:10.183 --> 15:12.530 after modernizing our organization . 15:12.540 --> 15:14.707 You know , speaking of modernization , 15:14.707 --> 15:16.762 I know you all been in the throes of 15:16.762 --> 15:18.929 modernization in this organization for 15:18.929 --> 15:20.873 for a while and we're still in the 15:20.873 --> 15:22.984 middle of it . I will be up front and 15:22.984 --> 15:25.096 let you know , I've told people along 15:25.096 --> 15:27.151 the way as I've met with folks , you 15:27.151 --> 15:26.370 know , that's that , that train is not 15:26.370 --> 15:28.537 stopping . We are going to continue to 15:28.537 --> 15:30.759 modernize and complete our efforts that 15:30.759 --> 15:32.870 we've been um underway with , since , 15:32.870 --> 15:34.880 since long before I arrived , they 15:34.880 --> 15:36.991 started probably two commanders to go 15:36.991 --> 15:39.213 with Captain kemp Colonel brady brought 15:39.213 --> 15:41.380 about some new ones and we're going to 15:41.380 --> 15:43.436 see them to fruition um , as you all 15:43.436 --> 15:45.380 know , we're still in the midst of 15:45.380 --> 15:47.380 upgrading the rest of mirrors . 1.1 15:47.380 --> 15:49.547 we've got Emerald going on , we've got 15:49.547 --> 15:51.547 MHS genesis coming aboard . We just 15:51.547 --> 15:53.824 modernized how we're doing our testing , 15:53.824 --> 15:55.658 we're gonna go forth and do more 15:55.658 --> 15:57.769 modernization and testing once we get 15:57.769 --> 15:59.880 some of our other current initiatives 16:00.340 --> 16:02.562 move forward and you're gonna hear some 16:02.562 --> 16:04.396 about those initiatives in those 16:04.396 --> 16:06.173 modernizations shortly from the 16:06.173 --> 16:06.090 directors . I do want to let you all 16:06.090 --> 16:08.360 know um I know that we'll be hearing 16:08.360 --> 16:11.770 shortly from MMT but um I did just 16:11.780 --> 16:15.600 resign um the charter um that 16:15.610 --> 16:17.610 for mmT that Colonel brady and Miss 16:17.610 --> 16:19.840 Miller had signed back in May um just 16:19.840 --> 16:22.062 waiting on this military counter signed 16:22.062 --> 16:23.784 with me but just resigned that 16:23.784 --> 16:25.729 reemphasizing our commitment as an 16:25.729 --> 16:27.673 organization to making that happen 16:27.673 --> 16:29.507 because there's a lot of efforts 16:29.507 --> 16:31.562 underway um to get after MHS genesis 16:31.562 --> 16:33.618 and that deployment um for for March 16:33.640 --> 16:36.530 about 22 and so there's some strong 16:36.530 --> 16:39.460 efforts and aspects or personnel across 16:39.460 --> 16:41.571 our command that need to support that 16:41.571 --> 16:43.738 fully . We all have to be fully behind 16:43.738 --> 16:45.627 that and so I wanted to make sure 16:45.627 --> 16:47.849 everyone knew we'll be getting that new 16:47.849 --> 16:49.849 charter out shortly once I get Miss 16:49.849 --> 16:51.960 Miller's counter signature on it . So 16:51.960 --> 16:54.182 next slide please . And last one what I 16:54.182 --> 16:56.570 expect from you . Um Again , not going 16:56.570 --> 16:58.737 to read it all to you , you can take a 16:58.737 --> 17:00.737 look at it . There's nothing ground 17:00.737 --> 17:00.600 breaking , earth shattering in there of 17:00.600 --> 17:02.767 what I expect from you . Um the number 17:02.767 --> 17:04.860 one on top of that respect , every 17:04.870 --> 17:06.926 member of our team so all of us come 17:06.926 --> 17:10.000 from different services um all of us 17:10.000 --> 17:12.111 have different sets of values whether 17:12.111 --> 17:14.000 it's the military Service members 17:14.000 --> 17:15.778 values from your service or the 17:15.778 --> 17:17.722 Department of Army , civilian um , 17:17.722 --> 17:20.150 values from being that perspective , 17:20.150 --> 17:22.372 but respecting every member of our team 17:22.372 --> 17:24.539 is universal . We should all do that . 17:24.539 --> 17:26.761 We all understand what that is . And as 17:26.761 --> 17:28.928 you go down , you'll see other aspects 17:28.928 --> 17:31.094 of what my leadership philosophy is in 17:31.094 --> 17:33.317 here . Um , I would ask you if you look 17:33.317 --> 17:36.400 right in the middle , think creatively 17:36.400 --> 17:38.678 use judgment and take calculated risks , 17:38.678 --> 17:41.270 exploit your experiences . So that 17:41.270 --> 17:43.381 comes back to again , doing your best 17:43.381 --> 17:45.492 every day . You know , I'm asking you 17:45.492 --> 17:47.603 not to just follow the rule , I think 17:47.603 --> 17:49.826 creatively and I know we have , we have 17:49.826 --> 17:49.650 team members and teammates who do that 17:49.650 --> 17:51.539 every single day and ask that you 17:51.539 --> 17:53.539 continue that and look after taking 17:53.539 --> 17:55.761 those calculated prudent risks that are 17:55.761 --> 17:57.928 within your authority to do so because 17:57.928 --> 18:00.094 that's the only way we're going to get 18:00.094 --> 18:02.039 better as an organization and move 18:02.039 --> 18:01.840 ourselves forward is if each of the 18:01.840 --> 18:04.007 teams that's responsible for different 18:04.007 --> 18:05.840 aspects of what our organization 18:05.840 --> 18:08.000 achieves executes those authorities 18:08.000 --> 18:10.111 that they have the ability to do so . 18:10.240 --> 18:13.750 So , um , so that's it down and . 18:14.250 --> 18:16.870 I think we can get , we can get through 18:16.870 --> 18:19.092 more details at times in the future and 18:19.092 --> 18:20.926 when I'm visiting um , different 18:20.926 --> 18:23.210 locations . But uh , the next part that 18:23.210 --> 18:25.377 we want to get to in today's town hall 18:25.377 --> 18:27.599 is have some of our director . It's get 18:27.599 --> 18:29.377 up and talk about some of their 18:29.377 --> 18:31.377 initiatives that they have going on 18:31.377 --> 18:33.543 right now .

Thank you for submitting 18:37.562 --> 18:39.562 them . I'll let you up front . No , 18:39.562 --> 18:39.050 right now we're not going to get the 18:39.050 --> 18:41.272 opportunity to answer all the questions 18:41.272 --> 18:43.272 that were submitted . We just don't 18:43.272 --> 18:45.383 have that amount of time here today , 18:45.383 --> 18:47.328 but we will absolutely get all the 18:47.328 --> 18:49.439 questions that were submitted written 18:49.439 --> 18:51.383 responses back out to be posted on 18:51.383 --> 18:53.383 spear And we'll answer some of them 18:53.383 --> 18:55.494 live today as well . So , and I think 18:55.494 --> 18:57.550 we're starting with the J 6 1st , is 18:57.550 --> 18:58.950 that true ? Come on up . 19:04.940 --> 19:07.107 Okay , thank you much . Hi everybody . 19:07.107 --> 19:08.996 My name is matt lens on the J six 19:08.996 --> 19:11.051 director here at us match . Com Next 19:11.051 --> 19:13.273 slide please . So I want to talk to you 19:13.273 --> 19:15.384 about a little bit just modernization 19:15.384 --> 19:17.496 today . So this slide really looks at 19:17.496 --> 19:19.718 kind of a couple of three things . Uh , 19:19.718 --> 19:21.607 there is 1.1 , some of our legacy 19:21.607 --> 19:23.718 applications and some of integrations 19:23.718 --> 19:25.996 work we're doing . So the top swimming , 19:25.996 --> 19:27.996 I'll talk about here if you look at 19:27.996 --> 19:30.162 that kind of what's in green Is really 19:30.162 --> 19:32.218 what we've done since in 1.1 , since 19:32.218 --> 19:34.384 we've actually launched it in February 19:34.384 --> 19:36.496 of 2021 . So those are things kind of 19:36.496 --> 19:38.384 the big level that we've actually 19:38.384 --> 19:40.440 accomplished going on the right hand 19:40.440 --> 19:42.607 side of the top swim lane and yellow . 19:43.940 --> 19:45.884 What's there to come back with the 19:45.884 --> 19:47.996 things uh that we're actually working 19:47.996 --> 19:50.107 on right now again through the end of 19:50.107 --> 19:52.329 this calendar year . So we're currently 19:52.329 --> 19:54.496 underway with our e signature right to 19:54.496 --> 19:56.662 replace the mouse signatures . We have 19:56.662 --> 19:58.773 a couple of things up there to notice 19:58.773 --> 20:00.662 again , kind of at a high level e 20:00.662 --> 20:03.290 security document . Upload our special 20:03.290 --> 20:05.457 testing , We're going to add some more 20:05.457 --> 20:07.623 special tests in the mirrors , mirrors 20:07.623 --> 20:09.846 1.1 . And so again , a lot of big stuff 20:09.846 --> 20:12.012 going there . We also don't have it on 20:12.012 --> 20:14.012 the calendar here , but we're going 20:14.012 --> 20:16.012 through all the work around that we 20:16.012 --> 20:18.123 have for the maps For 1.1 and we kind 20:18.123 --> 20:20.179 of going through those one at a time 20:20.179 --> 20:22.401 one at a time . And so we're continuing 20:22.401 --> 20:24.401 to work through those and I hope to 20:24.401 --> 20:26.568 have all those through as well and can 20:26.568 --> 20:28.790 be uh more to the field In the middle . 20:28.790 --> 20:30.901 I'm gonna talk about this on the next 20:30.901 --> 20:30.900 slide some more but it's our work is 20:30.920 --> 20:34.910 the non part of mears system that is 20:34.910 --> 20:37.800 non 1.1 . We have a lot of our legacy 20:37.800 --> 20:39.967 applications that are gonna be working 20:39.967 --> 20:42.189 on as well to modernize upgrade and put 20:42.189 --> 20:44.356 those in the cloud again . I'll talk a 20:44.356 --> 20:46.467 bit more about that in the next slide 20:46.467 --> 20:48.633 at the bottom swim laden on this slide 20:48.633 --> 20:48.370 as you'll notice we're also doing a lot 20:48.370 --> 20:50.592 of integrations , work with some of our 20:50.592 --> 20:52.703 partners . So for example of Mc chris 20:52.703 --> 20:54.648 that's the Marine corps recruiting 20:54.648 --> 20:56.703 information system . They are on our 20:56.703 --> 20:58.870 current project just like we were with 20:58.870 --> 21:00.592 1.1 and they're supposed to be 21:00.592 --> 21:02.926 deploying that in december of this year . 21:02.926 --> 21:02.230 So we'll be doing a lot of work with 21:02.230 --> 21:05.410 them aie army integration excuse me . 21:05.410 --> 21:07.630 Army information system uh an 21:07.630 --> 21:10.120 enterprise that will be replacing a 21:10.130 --> 21:12.074 risk for the army . So again we're 21:12.074 --> 21:14.186 going to be this fall doing a initial 21:14.186 --> 21:16.408 pilot site with them . I'm also working 21:16.408 --> 21:19.550 with the Coast Guard next slide . So 21:19.550 --> 21:21.439 this one I'm gonna I'm gonna read 21:21.439 --> 21:23.606 through all of these but this was kind 21:23.606 --> 21:25.772 of that middle part of that last night 21:25.772 --> 21:27.828 I talked about is this is the things 21:27.828 --> 21:29.772 that is not mirrors 1.1 that we're 21:29.772 --> 21:31.772 doing which is in many ways just as 21:31.772 --> 21:33.717 large if not a larger project that 21:33.717 --> 21:36.430 mirrors 1.1 was So here's 1.1 was kind 21:36.430 --> 21:38.541 of the core application in the mirror 21:38.541 --> 21:40.763 system of systems for us . mep calm but 21:40.763 --> 21:42.430 we have a dozen or more other 21:42.430 --> 21:44.319 applications that also need to be 21:44.319 --> 21:46.374 replaced . These are legacy outdated 21:46.374 --> 21:48.430 applications are gonna be completely 21:48.430 --> 21:50.597 rebuilt updated , put into the cloud . 21:50.597 --> 21:52.874 They're gonna look new . They're gonna , 21:52.874 --> 21:52.540 they're gonna smell new , they're gonna 21:52.540 --> 21:54.596 taste new . So these are things like 21:54.596 --> 21:56.810 fee based providers and e orders and 21:56.810 --> 21:59.350 student testing and star Net kind of 21:59.350 --> 22:01.517 etcetera . So you'll see on this slide 22:01.517 --> 22:03.520 kind of at the next two years out 22:03.520 --> 22:06.620 through 23 maybe a little bit in 24 of 22:06.620 --> 22:08.370 working on all of those legacy 22:08.370 --> 22:10.370 applications and I just want to put 22:10.370 --> 22:12.790 this up up here for you . So a lot more 22:12.790 --> 22:15.220 work to come . Uh we are not nearly 22:15.220 --> 22:18.170 close to done with modernization in J6 22:18.540 --> 22:20.596 and these instead of kind of the one 22:20.596 --> 22:22.651 big project , one point want to be a 22:22.651 --> 22:24.762 lot of very , very small projects and 22:24.762 --> 22:26.762 applications so particularly in the 22:26.762 --> 22:28.818 maps this is going to affect you and 22:28.818 --> 22:30.762 you're gonna see this as all these 22:30.762 --> 22:32.929 applications get redone , get tested , 22:32.929 --> 22:34.984 get deployed and then actually get , 22:34.984 --> 22:37.207 get into use . So we'll talk about some 22:37.207 --> 22:39.373 more of that in future so I appreciate 22:39.373 --> 22:41.429 everybody's support out in the field 22:41.429 --> 22:40.990 particularly for this . I know this is 22:41.000 --> 22:43.111 a lot of turn for you , thank you for 22:43.111 --> 22:45.278 your support in the past and thank you 22:45.278 --> 22:47.333 for your support in the future as we 22:47.333 --> 22:49.000 continue to modernize our I T 22:49.000 --> 22:51.000 enterprise support for all of you . 22:57.340 --> 22:59.507 I good afternoon mipcom team , can you 22:59.507 --> 23:02.520 hear me okay my name is Maple li I am 23:02.520 --> 23:05.360 the MMT Deputy director and I would 23:05.360 --> 23:07.471 like to take a few minutes to provide 23:07.471 --> 23:09.582 an update on MHS genesis deployment . 23:10.540 --> 23:13.200 So we are on timeline to deploy to our 23:13.200 --> 23:15.780 12 battalions and one rps early 23:15.780 --> 23:19.010 February and to all the remaining maps 23:19.020 --> 23:22.920 by mid March our team is 23:22.920 --> 23:25.060 currently working to close the cat to 23:25.060 --> 23:26.949 close the gaps identified in last 23:26.949 --> 23:29.490 week's model system review sessions um 23:29.490 --> 23:32.290 we held several sessions last week and 23:32.290 --> 23:34.346 continue to make improvements to the 23:34.346 --> 23:37.690 MHS genesis build and construct also . 23:37.690 --> 23:39.634 I like to say thank you to all the 23:39.634 --> 23:41.980 super users and champions who attended 23:41.990 --> 23:45.240 last week's MSR . We had fantastic 23:45.240 --> 23:47.140 participation from the field and 23:47.140 --> 23:49.251 gathered valuable insights to further 23:49.251 --> 23:52.630 develop the genesis build . So I have 23:52.630 --> 23:54.797 some notes and I also wanted to take a 23:54.797 --> 23:56.908 moment to answer a question submitted 23:56.908 --> 23:59.060 by 10th Battalion and the question is 23:59.640 --> 24:01.640 what has been done to ensure that M 24:01.640 --> 24:03.790 road and genesis information slash 24:03.790 --> 24:06.180 processing delays is being disseminated 24:06.180 --> 24:08.291 to folks at the recruiting in liaison 24:08.291 --> 24:11.950 levels . So mm T and J 357 24:11.960 --> 24:15.030 have been and will continue to brief 24:15.040 --> 24:17.660 brief genesis and M road at forums such 24:17.660 --> 24:20.790 as the A P F daddy Wig and R . C . O . 24:20.790 --> 24:23.500 C . We encourage battalion commanders 24:23.500 --> 24:26.300 and maps commanders to begin and 24:26.300 --> 24:28.522 continue communicating with the I . R . 24:28.522 --> 24:30.133 C . Partners and passing the 24:30.133 --> 24:32.244 information about genesis and emerald 24:32.244 --> 24:35.150 to the partners . Also , the mm T 24:35.160 --> 24:37.490 currently conducts bi monthly genesis , 24:37.490 --> 24:39.712 communications with the maps commanders 24:39.712 --> 24:41.879 and battalion commanders . Please feel 24:41.879 --> 24:43.970 free to invite your IRC partners to 24:43.970 --> 24:46.240 attend these sessions for additional 24:46.240 --> 24:49.400 information , push and lastly , pho has 24:49.400 --> 24:51.511 been working with us to develop a one 24:51.511 --> 24:54.350 page information paper for you to use 24:54.350 --> 24:56.870 when speaking to your IRC partners and 24:56.870 --> 24:58.703 we plan to have this one page or 24:58.703 --> 25:01.440 disseminated by sometime next week . So 25:01.440 --> 25:03.440 thank you for your time and we look 25:03.440 --> 25:05.273 forward to continuing to working 25:05.273 --> 25:05.170 together 25:13.540 --> 25:15.820 when I'm Captain Daniel kelly U . S . 25:15.820 --> 25:17.764 Air Force and I'm here to give you 25:17.764 --> 25:20.600 covid update as of right now . The co 25:20.600 --> 25:24.130 of the man the vaccine is mandatory for 25:24.130 --> 25:26.460 all active duty members . As for Gs and 25:26.460 --> 25:28.627 contractors , you're still discussions 25:28.627 --> 25:30.793 being taken place with the C . D . C . 25:30.793 --> 25:33.380 And the FDA as to what that landscape 25:33.380 --> 25:35.920 is going to look like . So the short 25:35.920 --> 25:38.240 answer is there's no guidance as of yet 25:38.450 --> 25:40.617 as of what that's going to look like . 25:40.617 --> 25:43.380 I'd like to get to a couple questions 25:43.380 --> 25:46.050 that were asked on the town hall and 25:47.140 --> 25:49.040 the first one is with the 25:49.040 --> 25:51.670 implementation of J . L . V . M Road is 25:51.920 --> 25:54.031 going to re evaluate targets for same 25:54.031 --> 25:56.220 day and total qualification rates by 25:56.220 --> 25:59.720 cmos . I want to say that we had a 25:59.730 --> 26:02.810 really long answer for this , but I've 26:02.810 --> 26:04.754 watered it down . And so the short 26:04.754 --> 26:06.810 answer for this is a command surgeon 26:06.810 --> 26:09.950 office will monitor same day and final 26:09.950 --> 26:12.172 qualification rates change based on the 26:12.172 --> 26:14.410 implementation of J . J . L . V . And M 26:14.410 --> 26:16.880 road and we're gonna just fire based on 26:16.880 --> 26:18.991 what that is . We're looking for what 26:18.991 --> 26:20.936 the trends are . Can't really tell 26:20.936 --> 26:23.102 right now what we're going to do until 26:23.102 --> 26:25.324 we see what that's what that looks like 26:25.324 --> 26:27.630 based off of the trends from J . L . V . 26:27.630 --> 26:30.030 And what M roads dictate . The second 26:30.030 --> 26:33.420 question was had to do with mask 26:33.420 --> 26:37.350 mandates for MEPS stations right now 26:37.360 --> 26:39.527 there is no universal mandate in place 26:39.740 --> 26:42.080 right now . We are not requiring the 26:42.080 --> 26:44.960 vaccination before an applicant floors . 26:45.340 --> 26:47.507 It's being handled by the services and 26:47.507 --> 26:50.680 until we get more uh , guidance based 26:50.680 --> 26:52.791 upon that , that's how we're going to 26:52.791 --> 26:55.013 handle this . And with that I will turn 26:55.013 --> 26:56.458 it over to . Who's that ? 27:03.840 --> 27:05.840 One of the other things you want to 27:05.840 --> 27:08.007 make sure that everybody knows is that 27:08.007 --> 27:10.229 all the information on the vaccinations 27:10.229 --> 27:13.140 by service and for Department of Army 27:13.140 --> 27:15.660 civilians is going to be collated and 27:16.140 --> 27:19.520 Put where on the Form four . Uh , 27:19.530 --> 27:21.900 no , I'm sorry on mill . Sweet , 27:21.910 --> 27:23.950 correct . Are you covering that Joe 27:23.950 --> 27:26.006 when you get to J . 1 ? Okay . We'll 27:26.006 --> 27:27.960 talk about that then . Thank you . 27:32.740 --> 27:36.050 I can't read anything . Oh , all right . 27:37.340 --> 27:39.562 All right , good afternoon . Uh , we're 27:39.562 --> 27:41.396 just gonna roll into some of the 27:41.396 --> 27:43.284 questions here . One of the first 27:43.284 --> 27:45.507 question was the asking about increases 27:45.507 --> 27:48.540 in man , asking 27:48.540 --> 27:51.750 about , asking about increases in 27:51.750 --> 27:54.028 manpower is associated with the M road . 27:54.028 --> 27:57.310 MHS genesis , endeavors . Um , that's 27:57.310 --> 27:59.421 kind of a loaded question . Um , I'll 27:59.421 --> 28:01.310 start out with probably maybe the 28:01.310 --> 28:03.477 negative side of it is uh no , there's 28:03.477 --> 28:05.366 not an automatic growth in actual 28:05.366 --> 28:07.254 billets associated with with this 28:07.254 --> 28:09.477 effort . That being said , however , is 28:09.477 --> 28:11.254 that the commander has a lot of 28:11.254 --> 28:13.421 flexibilities to address emergent kind 28:13.421 --> 28:15.477 of requirements , barring the actual 28:15.477 --> 28:17.532 manpower study that will follow down 28:17.532 --> 28:19.477 the road that can include , you've 28:19.477 --> 28:21.588 probably seen it out in the field . I 28:21.588 --> 28:23.810 should have seen that in the field . We 28:23.810 --> 28:26.032 have several over hires already already 28:26.032 --> 28:28.254 in place to kinda help mitigate some of 28:28.254 --> 28:30.199 the stuff coming up . Uh , we have 28:30.199 --> 28:32.143 adidas uh involvement going on out 28:32.143 --> 28:34.254 there as well . We have over hires in 28:34.254 --> 28:36.588 certain areas that have been authorized , 28:36.588 --> 28:38.754 uh , what I would recommend and in the 28:38.754 --> 28:40.366 long run is make sure you're 28:40.366 --> 28:42.254 communicating with your battalion 28:42.254 --> 28:44.588 commanders up to the sector and then uh , 28:44.588 --> 28:46.477 it's up to the staff where you've 28:46.477 --> 28:48.532 identified those areas uh , that are 28:48.532 --> 28:50.588 significant risk , but we , we don't 28:50.588 --> 28:52.754 have a lot of assets to kind of spread 28:52.754 --> 28:54.810 out there . So we're going to really 28:54.810 --> 28:54.800 have to rely on the commanders to 28:54.900 --> 28:57.067 prioritize that for us where they want 28:57.540 --> 28:59.540 uh , those assets to be placed in . 28:59.540 --> 29:01.651 Obviously commander , you'll , you'll 29:01.651 --> 29:03.160 make all um , 29:06.840 --> 29:08.896 the next one is the one who was just 29:08.896 --> 29:11.062 talking about , which can tend to be a 29:11.062 --> 29:13.284 bit of an emotional issue when it comes 29:13.284 --> 29:15.520 to mandating shots . Many of us lived 29:15.520 --> 29:18.590 through the hole , um , anthrax 29:18.600 --> 29:20.880 world and doing that and seeing what 29:20.880 --> 29:22.936 kind of emotions that brought to the 29:22.936 --> 29:26.560 table for us . So with that I believe 29:26.560 --> 29:28.782 is already already discussed somewhat . 29:28.782 --> 29:30.838 But going into the HR side of this , 29:30.838 --> 29:32.782 everything for the services is out 29:32.782 --> 29:34.893 right now is posted on our mill sweet 29:34.893 --> 29:37.004 site . We're going to send that out . 29:37.004 --> 29:39.116 That's another communication is going 29:39.116 --> 29:38.830 to be coming out . We'll get it out to 29:38.830 --> 29:40.997 everyone . Additionally this morning , 29:40.997 --> 29:42.774 Sector commanders and battalion 29:42.774 --> 29:44.830 commanders should have gotten , uh , 29:44.830 --> 29:47.050 the advice on notification to unions . 29:47.440 --> 29:49.440 The idea there is to just have open 29:49.440 --> 29:51.850 communication with our our unions , uh 29:51.860 --> 29:54.027 and keeping them informed as to what's 29:54.027 --> 29:56.082 going on . And there's several links 29:56.082 --> 29:58.304 provided there uh that are suitable for 29:58.304 --> 30:00.800 union uh person leadership to go into 30:00.800 --> 30:04.560 and take a look at and and and 30:04.570 --> 30:06.848 mary just confirmed that it did go out . 30:06.848 --> 30:10.700 So with that um we do know a little bit 30:10.700 --> 30:12.811 different field from the medical side 30:12.811 --> 30:14.867 on HR side . We're waiting right now 30:14.867 --> 30:17.730 for Ciara and OPM uh to to get us the 30:17.730 --> 30:19.952 guidance as far as how we're gonna deal 30:19.952 --> 30:22.490 with uh with implementing . What we do 30:22.490 --> 30:25.430 know right now , is that um it is being 30:25.430 --> 30:28.130 delayed uh with the effective date was 30:28.130 --> 30:30.463 supposed to be , I believe . 22nd right , 30:32.040 --> 30:34.790 13 . Okay . Uh we anticipate that's 30:34.790 --> 30:37.123 gonna move , but we don't know for sure . 30:37.123 --> 30:39.179 So we don't want to come out and say 30:39.179 --> 30:41.123 yes , it's going to uh but our our 30:41.123 --> 30:43.234 logic says that it's going to have to 30:43.234 --> 30:45.457 uh because we're quickly running out of 30:45.457 --> 30:47.401 days and we don't have the initial 30:47.401 --> 30:49.457 guidance so continued to communicate 30:49.457 --> 30:51.401 like I said to our to our unions , 30:51.401 --> 30:53.623 especially in the field , you should be 30:53.623 --> 30:55.846 seeing notification here shortly and uh 30:55.846 --> 30:57.846 well , welcome some conversation on 30:57.846 --> 31:01.600 that . Um steve . 31:01.710 --> 31:05.180 The question was yeah , questions about 31:05.180 --> 31:07.420 temporarily raising or waiving leave 31:07.420 --> 31:09.587 levels for the civilian workforce as a 31:09.587 --> 31:11.253 result of increasing workload 31:11.253 --> 31:15.060 restrictions levied by covid 19 . So 31:15.640 --> 31:18.170 again , kind of a two part answer . Um 31:18.540 --> 31:20.707 the commander doesn't have the ability 31:20.707 --> 31:22.929 to to do that . That usually that comes 31:22.929 --> 31:24.929 down from OPM right . Uh it usually 31:24.929 --> 31:27.151 comes down toward the end of the year . 31:27.151 --> 31:29.373 And one of the things that you're gonna 31:29.373 --> 31:31.429 you're gonna get from the HR team is 31:31.429 --> 31:33.596 you can't merely come in and say , hey 31:33.596 --> 31:35.707 I couldn't take leave because my boss 31:35.707 --> 31:37.873 just I knew he wasn't going to approve 31:37.873 --> 31:40.096 it or she wasn't going to prove it . So 31:40.096 --> 31:39.580 I didn't even put in for it , I just 31:39.580 --> 31:41.524 knew it wasn't gonna be approved . 31:41.524 --> 31:43.691 That's not going to get you anywhere . 31:43.691 --> 31:45.802 You need to actually go in request to 31:45.802 --> 31:49.010 leave and have it denied . Um And and 31:49.020 --> 31:51.020 supervisors can deny leave for many 31:51.020 --> 31:53.131 different reasons . It's not it's not 31:53.131 --> 31:55.187 necessarily a negative thing . So uh 31:55.187 --> 31:57.187 one example , I use a lot is is our 31:57.187 --> 31:59.020 comptroller counterparts , if in 31:59.020 --> 32:01.076 september is when they close out the 32:01.076 --> 32:03.076 books , right , Not a good time for 32:03.076 --> 32:05.242 them to take leave . Uh So if they put 32:05.242 --> 32:04.970 in for leave during that time , it's 32:04.970 --> 32:07.137 probably likely the controller's gonna 32:07.137 --> 32:09.359 say no , we're gonna have to reschedule 32:09.359 --> 32:12.180 that . Um But the point being is that 32:12.180 --> 32:14.347 when we're talking about carrying over 32:14.347 --> 32:16.402 leave doing that kind of thing , you 32:16.402 --> 32:18.291 have to be able to illustrate you 32:18.291 --> 32:20.513 indeed requested it and your supervisor 32:20.513 --> 32:22.347 denied it based on the covid I'm 32:22.347 --> 32:23.347 already getting 32:26.640 --> 32:28.751 then the last the last question we're 32:28.751 --> 32:30.751 gonna cover here and it is like the 32:30.751 --> 32:32.584 commander said , we got a lot of 32:32.584 --> 32:34.751 questions , we've answered all those , 32:34.751 --> 32:36.973 they'll be coming out uh in more detail 32:36.973 --> 32:39.140 and with the references . Um , but the 32:39.140 --> 32:38.980 last question was the army's new 32:38.980 --> 32:41.480 personnel system , the hips a uh , 32:41.490 --> 32:45.350 what's the impact of vietcong ? The 32:45.350 --> 32:47.683 answer I have written here is that it's , 32:47.683 --> 32:49.850 it's , it's somewhat medical , minimal 32:49.850 --> 32:52.128 impact . However , if you're a soldier , 32:52.128 --> 32:54.239 you may not feel , it is so minimal . 32:54.239 --> 32:56.461 That's your new system to use . We have 32:56.461 --> 32:58.683 our folks going through right now , the 32:58.683 --> 33:00.628 major and all our lasagne is going 33:00.628 --> 33:02.850 through getting the training for that . 33:02.850 --> 33:04.961 We will also then turn around and get 33:04.961 --> 33:07.017 that training out in the field for , 33:07.040 --> 33:09.240 but I really wouldn't . Uh , I think 33:09.240 --> 33:11.407 we're on track for that one . Uh , and 33:11.407 --> 33:13.573 the major will be setting up something 33:13.573 --> 33:15.684 here shortly for for the training and 33:15.684 --> 33:17.851 just tell me to get off the stage . So 33:23.840 --> 33:27.430 how long I got nick colonel , what 33:27.430 --> 33:30.780 wears a lot bigger than me . So I 33:30.780 --> 33:32.669 should , I should probably try to 33:32.669 --> 33:34.724 listen to him that time . So just to 33:34.724 --> 33:37.740 start with uh , kind of a 92nd overview 33:37.740 --> 33:39.907 at the 30 K level , what's going on in 33:39.907 --> 33:43.240 J 357 right now . So if you look at the 33:43.240 --> 33:46.160 modernization efforts , uh , we are 33:46.160 --> 33:48.910 primarily leading two of them . So 33:48.910 --> 33:52.210 hames right now , health artifact image 33:52.220 --> 33:54.340 and management system . We just 33:54.340 --> 33:57.710 expanded last week to all navy shippers 33:57.720 --> 34:00.360 as well as army shippers to Fort 34:00.360 --> 34:03.660 Leonard wood . So that joined uh the 34:03.670 --> 34:05.614 Air Force shippers and Coast Guard 34:05.614 --> 34:07.559 shippers . So what we're left with 34:07.559 --> 34:09.840 right now and we will continue to 34:09.840 --> 34:11.729 expand as we get into october and 34:11.729 --> 34:13.760 november . Are the army shippers 34:13.770 --> 34:17.100 remaining for Fort Benning as well as 34:17.100 --> 34:19.560 Fort Jackson . Uh and then as well the 34:19.560 --> 34:21.671 Marine Corps shippers going to parris 34:21.671 --> 34:24.910 island as well as san Diego . So 34:24.910 --> 34:27.132 starting october , the rest of the army 34:27.132 --> 34:29.354 shippers , starting in november will do 34:29.354 --> 34:31.577 the Marine Corps shippers at that point 34:31.577 --> 34:33.799 in time . All shippers will be on hames 34:33.799 --> 34:36.021 with a couple exceptions here and there 34:36.021 --> 34:38.740 with a guard component . So we are 34:38.740 --> 34:42.200 working on that as well . Uh we had a 34:42.210 --> 34:44.377 question come up recently with regards 34:44.377 --> 34:46.599 to uh air guard shippers off one of the 34:46.599 --> 34:48.950 I . G . Inspections . So we are working 34:48.950 --> 34:51.870 out as well . Uh so Christie miller is 34:51.870 --> 34:53.981 our project lee , she is working very 34:53.981 --> 34:56.220 closely with the sector off steams 34:56.220 --> 34:58.331 identifying friction points as we add 34:58.331 --> 35:00.670 more shippers into the the hands pilot . 35:01.040 --> 35:03.540 So we're almost there . Uh about the 35:03.540 --> 35:06.480 same time as we finish expanding homes 35:06.490 --> 35:09.120 will be M road . So M Road was 35:09.120 --> 35:11.287 initially intended to go in the spring 35:11.287 --> 35:13.740 of this year uh was delayed due to 35:13.740 --> 35:15.740 recruiting market conditions to one 35:15.740 --> 35:18.860 October Now we have another delay uh 35:18.870 --> 35:21.750 into first quarter of fy 22 we don't 35:21.750 --> 35:23.917 have confirmation the exact date yet , 35:23.917 --> 35:25.972 but we've asked for one december and 35:25.972 --> 35:28.028 we're waiting on that right now . So 35:28.028 --> 35:29.917 we're continuing to work with the 35:29.917 --> 35:32.940 sectors as well as our partners in the 35:32.950 --> 35:35.210 contracting world to prep and get ready 35:35.210 --> 35:37.540 for tomorrow to come out . In addition 35:37.540 --> 35:39.373 to that , our product Management 35:39.373 --> 35:41.890 Division is working very close with J6 35:41.890 --> 35:45.710 on 1.1 sustainment as well as M . M . 35:45.710 --> 35:47.900 T . Along with our policy and training 35:47.900 --> 35:51.290 division uh to support mmt on MHS 35:51.290 --> 35:54.170 genesis rollout Um a couple other 35:54.170 --> 35:56.540 highlights . J six was also involved in 35:56.540 --> 35:58.450 this uh very intimately but the 35:58.450 --> 36:01.500 transition to dis uh with Dixon 36:01.500 --> 36:04.720 uh your fingerprints and I'll go uh 36:04.730 --> 36:07.390 still a Dixon for the FBI to systems 36:07.390 --> 36:10.290 check but B . I . R . Is gone now . So 36:10.290 --> 36:12.520 that's uh another legacy server that 36:12.530 --> 36:14.641 you no longer have to deal with their 36:14.641 --> 36:16.752 worry about in your maps and services 36:16.752 --> 36:18.863 can now go straight into the disk web 36:18.863 --> 36:21.030 portal and pull down their fingerprint 36:21.030 --> 36:23.252 results . So so good news there . So so 36:23.252 --> 36:25.419 a lot of different efforts going on at 36:25.419 --> 36:27.641 the same time . We're trying to balance 36:27.641 --> 36:29.419 the blocking and tackling of of 36:29.419 --> 36:31.586 operations and U . S . Mint . Com . So 36:31.586 --> 36:33.530 you'll be seeing shortly the fy 22 36:33.530 --> 36:35.641 operation schedules as well as the Fy 36:35.641 --> 36:37.752 22 M . D . C . A . Will be coming out 36:37.752 --> 36:40.080 shortly . So we had eight questions . I 36:40.090 --> 36:42.201 don't think I'll hit them all depends 36:42.201 --> 36:45.570 on on when colonel which were glares at 36:45.570 --> 36:48.320 me over there so I kind of bend them 36:48.320 --> 36:50.487 into a couple priorities . I wanna hit 36:50.487 --> 36:52.690 the testing questions up front as well 36:52.690 --> 36:54.857 as a couple of covid related questions 36:54.857 --> 36:56.912 so uh start with testing testing the 36:56.912 --> 36:59.820 logical first step after an applicant 36:59.820 --> 37:03.410 meets a recruiter to get qualified . So 37:03.420 --> 37:05.620 as Dave Davis are testing chief often 37:05.620 --> 37:08.130 says if you snap com is freedom's front 37:08.130 --> 37:10.620 door than the testing division . Us map 37:10.620 --> 37:13.390 promised freedom screen door so we'll 37:13.390 --> 37:16.960 hit those a quick one first uh from six 37:16.960 --> 37:19.293 battalion . When do we expect E . D . P . 37:19.293 --> 37:21.516 T . In A . F . Q . T . To go digital or 37:21.516 --> 37:24.020 paperless ? So E . D . P . T . That is 37:24.030 --> 37:26.141 uh Air Force paper and pencil tests . 37:26.141 --> 37:28.530 Electronic data processing test . A fo 37:28.530 --> 37:30.970 Q . O . Q . T . Air Force officer 37:30.970 --> 37:33.180 qualification test . Okay . Short 37:33.180 --> 37:35.236 answer on that is a fo Q . T . We're 37:35.236 --> 37:37.291 looking at one november to start the 37:37.291 --> 37:39.402 administration digitally . Uh there's 37:39.402 --> 37:42.470 some prep work and it works on that to 37:42.480 --> 37:44.702 get the maps ready to be able to access 37:44.702 --> 37:46.758 uh the website to be able to deliver 37:46.758 --> 37:48.924 that test . And then we are looking at 37:48.924 --> 37:50.924 second quarter of our third quarter 37:50.924 --> 37:53.350 rather if I . 22 for the E . D . P . T . 37:54.930 --> 37:56.874 I had another question focusing on 37:56.874 --> 37:58.763 modernization for student testing 37:58.763 --> 38:00.986 program or career exploration program . 38:01.020 --> 38:03.610 So the the 50 m target on that is 38:03.610 --> 38:06.160 getting ipads out to all the S . S . S . 38:06.160 --> 38:08.930 And T . C . O . S . As well as access 38:08.930 --> 38:12.530 to uh zoom for government . So 38:12.540 --> 38:14.707 zoom for government is on the way . Uh 38:14.707 --> 38:17.040 looking over at mad about 60 days or so . 38:21.520 --> 38:23.687 Okay once we worked the account set up 38:23.687 --> 38:25.909 we'll get the access to zoom and that's 38:25.909 --> 38:27.853 important . Uh when paired up with 38:27.853 --> 38:29.687 those ipads that's gonna greatly 38:29.687 --> 38:31.576 facilitate the ability of testing 38:31.576 --> 38:33.687 personnel to go out and sit down in a 38:33.687 --> 38:35.687 professional environment with their 38:35.687 --> 38:37.909 counterparts in the schools and and run 38:37.909 --> 38:40.131 through a lot of the good tools we have 38:40.131 --> 38:42.076 on those student website , testing 38:42.076 --> 38:44.280 websites um A little bit further down 38:44.280 --> 38:46.980 range uh replacement for wind tip and 38:46.980 --> 38:50.150 also replacement for schools 2001 . So 38:50.160 --> 38:52.610 wind tip is the testing inventory 38:52.610 --> 38:54.830 application that is in the works right 38:54.830 --> 38:56.997 now . We've we've had guidance already 38:56.997 --> 38:58.886 out on the street with regards to 38:58.886 --> 39:00.830 training and system access for the 39:00.830 --> 39:02.941 replacement system which will be deep 39:02.941 --> 39:05.110 past the defense personnel or defence 39:05.110 --> 39:07.430 property and accountability system . So 39:07.430 --> 39:09.208 that is anticipated to complete 39:09.208 --> 39:11.319 transition by the end of the calendar 39:11.319 --> 39:13.710 year and then we will be ready to go in 39:13.710 --> 39:17.360 deep schools . 2001 K . Okay . That is 39:17.370 --> 39:20.750 a joint venture between J six uh D . 39:20.750 --> 39:24.190 Tack which was the old Deepak as well 39:24.190 --> 39:27.700 as uh the contractor Tomorrow Human 39:27.700 --> 39:30.040 resource Research Organization and G 39:30.040 --> 39:32.810 8357 that were replaced by a program 39:32.810 --> 39:34.532 called concept which will be a 39:34.532 --> 39:36.850 homegrown software developed right here 39:36.860 --> 39:39.350 amongst those organizations .

So the Air 40:24.990 --> 40:27.101 Force had its birthday this last just 40:27.101 --> 40:29.212 this last week , I sent out a message 40:29.212 --> 40:32.000 this last weekend Commemorating some of 40:32.000 --> 40:35.290 the significant achievements of our of 40:35.290 --> 40:37.512 our United States Air Force towards the 40:37.512 --> 40:39.500 defense of our nation . It's 40:39.500 --> 40:42.470 significant that we take this time um 40:42.480 --> 40:44.536 you know , when these birthdays come 40:44.536 --> 40:46.758 around for each of our services to make 40:46.758 --> 40:48.702 sure we recognize the individual , 40:48.702 --> 40:50.869 distinct achievements that each of our 40:50.869 --> 40:52.924 services has made . Um and this year 40:52.924 --> 40:55.036 for the Air Force , it's a you know , 40:55.036 --> 40:54.630 take that moment to reflect on what 40:54.630 --> 40:57.030 they have done um over their tenure , 40:57.040 --> 40:59.460 how they have contributed not just to 40:59.460 --> 41:01.460 the development of within their own 41:01.460 --> 41:03.293 service , put the defense of our 41:03.293 --> 41:05.516 country overall .

Um but please take a moment to 41:16.120 --> 41:18.342 think back , you know and if you're not 41:18.342 --> 41:18.200 a member , if you're a member of the 41:18.200 --> 41:19.811 Air Force , obviously you're 41:19.811 --> 41:21.700 celebrating your proud and unique 41:21.700 --> 41:23.950 tradition of your own service .
