00:02.240 --> 00:04.462
The combined efforts of naval support ,

00:04.462 --> 00:06.518
Garcia's public works department and

00:06.518 --> 00:08.629
black construction led to the massive

00:08.629 --> 00:11.180
overhaul of barracks 17 . Actually , we

00:11.180 --> 00:13.710
have started this project during the

00:13.720 --> 00:16.610
COVID-19 pandemic . We have a lot of

00:16.620 --> 00:19.220
challenges in completing this project ,

00:19.230 --> 00:22.690
especially logistics wise and manpower

00:22.690 --> 00:25.530
wise . Completing this project was not

00:25.540 --> 00:28.260
a walk in the park . This is this is a

00:28.260 --> 00:30.460
huge project coming into turn $7

00:30.460 --> 00:32.571
million . It's not small , that's not

00:32.571 --> 00:34.620
small . Change . The goal of the of

00:34.620 --> 00:37.090
this project is to modernize the

00:37.100 --> 00:39.211
facility . Facility was built back in

00:39.211 --> 00:42.580
1984 and we basically had to completely

00:42.590 --> 00:44.257
gut it and remove all the old

00:44.257 --> 00:47.130
components and um do this structural

00:47.130 --> 00:49.880
piece , the architectural , electrical ,

00:49.880 --> 00:52.060
mechanical and the fire protection

00:52.930 --> 00:54.819
reporting from Diego Garcia . I'm

00:54.819 --> 00:55.520
