00:04.070 --> 00:06.070
This is our second appointment . So

00:06.070 --> 00:08.181
each time it's been challenging . But

00:08.181 --> 00:10.220
mass has been great and just the

00:10.230 --> 00:12.510
presence coming home speaks volumes .

00:13.290 --> 00:15.401
Service members with carrier Air Wing

00:15.401 --> 00:17.623
five return to Marine Corps Air Station

00:17.623 --> 00:19.734
Iwakuni Japan following a three month

00:19.734 --> 00:21.901
deployment aboard the aircraft carrier

00:21.901 --> 00:24.123
Uss Ronald Reagan . We're lucky that we

00:24.123 --> 00:26.346
get a half time for seventh Fleet and F

00:26.346 --> 00:28.512
D N . F . So this is like a huge bonus

00:28.512 --> 00:30.679
where most squadrons back home . Don't

00:30.679 --> 00:29.310
get it .

00:35.000 --> 00:37.070
C b W five was aboard the Reagan to

00:37.070 --> 00:39.126
conduct carrier based Air strike and

00:39.126 --> 00:41.237
Strike force missions as well as ship

00:41.237 --> 00:43.459
battle group and intelligent collection

00:43.459 --> 00:45.610
operations . It's been challenging .

00:45.610 --> 00:47.666
But I think we really have found our

00:47.666 --> 00:49.832
groove with supporting each other . So

00:49.832 --> 00:51.943
we're making it work . Family members

00:51.943 --> 00:53.999
waited by the flight line to welcome

00:53.999 --> 00:56.054
their loved ones home reporting from

00:56.054 --> 00:58.332
Marine Corps Air Station Iwakuni Japan ,

00:58.332 --> 00:58.930
