14:16.072 --> 14:18.072
transitions here this morning , you

14:18.072 --> 14:20.128

14:20.128 --> 14:22.400
honored tradition and they really the

14:22.409 --> 14:24.631
physical manifestation of that transfer

14:24.631 --> 14:26.989
of stewardship from one officer to

14:27.000 --> 14:30.549
another . But at the same time as we as

14:30.559 --> 14:33.559
we kind of uh those two represent out

14:33.570 --> 14:35.570
here what's going on this morning ,

14:35.570 --> 14:37.570
that transfer of stewardship . It's

14:37.570 --> 14:39.737
also a time for us to honor the unit ,

14:39.737 --> 14:41.570
second Medical Battalion and the

14:41.570 --> 14:43.737
Marines and sailors that serve in this

14:43.737 --> 14:45.848
organization . Um I want to provide a

14:45.848 --> 14:47.737
little bit of context for my next

14:47.737 --> 14:49.626
comment . So we are two ef second

14:49.626 --> 14:51.626
Marine Exp force is a global crisis

14:51.626 --> 14:53.514
response force and uh we're about

14:53.514 --> 14:55.820
38,000 marines and sailors . Second

14:55.830 --> 14:57.997
marine logistics group is part of that

14:57.997 --> 14:59.830
and we're about 7500 marines and

14:59.830 --> 15:02.570
sailors . Medical battalion provides

15:02.580 --> 15:05.559
that health service support . 750

15:05.570 --> 15:07.681
marines and sailors give or take that

15:07.681 --> 15:10.059
provide that health service support to

15:10.070 --> 15:13.109
the 38,000 marines and sailors of of of

15:13.119 --> 15:15.175
second marine exp missionary force .

15:15.175 --> 15:17.341
Think about that for a minute . That's

15:17.341 --> 15:19.286
impressive . And what I wanna talk

15:19.286 --> 15:21.619
about is is how do they do that ? Right .

15:21.619 --> 15:23.730
So the first thing I I would offer is

15:23.730 --> 15:25.897
that this is , it's from a process and

15:25.897 --> 15:28.364
partnership perspective on how we train

15:28.375 --> 15:30.914
and certify our , our main unit of

15:30.924 --> 15:32.868
employment . And that's a surgical

15:32.868 --> 15:34.924
plato and I and I use processing and

15:34.924 --> 15:37.765
partnership in particular because there

15:37.775 --> 15:39.719
is a delicate balance that Medical

15:39.719 --> 15:42.114
battalion does every single day . And

15:42.125 --> 15:43.792
the way we rotate our company

15:43.792 --> 15:47.419
formations through a a four phase

15:47.429 --> 15:49.820
training approach or training pipeline .

15:50.159 --> 15:52.159
That that most of that here at Camp

15:52.159 --> 15:54.381
Lejeune for those , those platoons that

15:54.381 --> 15:56.381
are here , a lot of that , a lot of

15:56.381 --> 15:58.326
those four phases are spent at the

15:58.326 --> 16:00.492
hospital here and it , and the same up

16:00.492 --> 16:02.603
in Portsmouth that process , although

16:02.603 --> 16:04.437
they spent every phase in in the

16:04.437 --> 16:06.492
hospital . But , but the point is is

16:06.492 --> 16:08.659
that we have to have the two hospitals

16:08.659 --> 16:10.881
to be able to , to , to hone our skills

16:10.881 --> 16:13.103
and , and be the people that we are and

16:13.103 --> 16:14.992
that provide the services that we

16:14.992 --> 16:17.048
provide . So the partnership between

16:17.048 --> 16:19.650
Medical Battalion and the Naval uh

16:19.659 --> 16:21.492
medical facility Campus Union in

16:21.492 --> 16:23.859
Portman Naval Hospital is so critically

16:23.869 --> 16:26.390
important . And that process that we go

16:26.400 --> 16:28.679
through to do this so critically

16:28.690 --> 16:31.030
important and that process has existed

16:31.039 --> 16:33.206
for a while . But I will tell you what

16:33.206 --> 16:35.372
Dean and his team have been able to do

16:35.372 --> 16:37.206
over the last two years with the

16:37.206 --> 16:39.428
partnership with the two hospitals , is

16:39.428 --> 16:41.539
refine that process and refine that ,

16:41.539 --> 16:43.706
that ultimate , that readiness that we

16:43.706 --> 16:45.872
provide to the war fighter . When we ,

16:45.872 --> 16:47.928
when we go out and do our job at the

16:47.928 --> 16:50.190
same time , uh the two hospital CEO S

16:50.200 --> 16:52.256
would probably tell you that that at

16:52.256 --> 16:54.144
the same time , the services that

16:54.144 --> 16:56.311
they're providing to the men and women

16:56.311 --> 16:58.144
that go into those facilities is

16:58.144 --> 17:00.256
incredible as well . Um And so , so I

17:00.256 --> 17:02.200
wanna just talk about that for , I

17:02.200 --> 17:04.367
wanted to talk about that for a second

17:04.367 --> 17:06.311
because that's a behind the scenes

17:06.311 --> 17:08.311
thing that takes so much effort and

17:08.311 --> 17:10.422
care but critical to the readiness of

17:10.422 --> 17:12.367
the organization I mentioned for a

17:12.367 --> 17:14.422
moment , certification . So we do go

17:14.422 --> 17:16.644
through a certification process for our

17:16.644 --> 17:19.479
surgical platoons . So , um before the

17:19.489 --> 17:21.656
medical people start throwing darts at

17:21.656 --> 17:23.711
me , these are my words , right ? So

17:23.711 --> 17:25.878
prior to , prior to , to , to the team

17:25.878 --> 17:27.933
here over the last two years , we've

17:27.933 --> 17:30.156
always had a process but not formalized

17:30.156 --> 17:32.267
in how we did that . And Dean and his

17:32.267 --> 17:34.378
team recognized that went out to , to

17:34.378 --> 17:36.378
California to review an EMF and how

17:36.378 --> 17:38.433
they , they conducted certifications

17:38.479 --> 17:41.380
and brought back a uh a really a plan

17:41.390 --> 17:43.739
to help formalize the certification of

17:43.750 --> 17:46.319
our , of our surgical team and we have

17:46.329 --> 17:48.496
that in place now and we're using it .

17:48.496 --> 17:50.496
And as a matter of fact , here real

17:50.496 --> 17:52.662
soon , that's gonna get signed as part

17:52.662 --> 17:54.662
of our second MLG Marine for combat

17:54.662 --> 17:56.885
readiness evaluation system and order .

17:56.885 --> 17:59.051
Ok . Now , look , that's , that's an e

17:59.165 --> 18:00.998
what we're doing there is really

18:01.005 --> 18:03.265
putting a final professional stamp on

18:03.275 --> 18:05.497
what we've already been doing . But I ,

18:05.497 --> 18:07.108
I highlight that because the

18:07.108 --> 18:09.164
professionalism of this organization

18:09.164 --> 18:11.053
always trying to get a little bit

18:11.053 --> 18:13.219
better . Um is , it's been kind of the

18:13.219 --> 18:15.219
hallmark of what's been happening .

18:15.219 --> 18:16.942
What's been happening here . I

18:16.942 --> 18:18.886
mentioned Bravo Company . So Bravo

18:18.886 --> 18:21.108
Company is at Portsmouth and , and they

18:21.108 --> 18:23.108
haven't been around that long , the

18:23.108 --> 18:25.331
marines or excuse me , the sailors have

18:25.331 --> 18:25.119
been up there , but , but as part of

18:25.130 --> 18:27.530
medical battalion and , and so we've ,

18:27.540 --> 18:30.770
we've been um slowly uh and Dean

18:30.780 --> 18:32.836
accelerated the story this time here

18:33.329 --> 18:35.440
making a Bravo company or , or , or ,

18:35.440 --> 18:37.551
or working with Bravo company to kind

18:37.551 --> 18:39.718
of mirror what alpha company does down

18:39.718 --> 18:41.829
here and the progress that we've made

18:41.829 --> 18:43.829
over the last two years and from an

18:43.829 --> 18:45.829
operational perspective , it's been

18:45.829 --> 18:47.773
amazing up at Portsmouth . Um They

18:47.773 --> 18:49.996
didn't have any equipment either . They

18:49.996 --> 18:52.051
train in the hospital for sure , but

18:52.051 --> 18:51.579
they didn't have an equipment set that

18:51.589 --> 18:53.645
they could train in their backyard .

18:53.645 --> 18:55.756
They would come down here and train ,

18:55.756 --> 18:55.250
which we want them to come down here

18:55.260 --> 18:57.427
and train . But we also wanted them to

18:57.427 --> 18:59.427
have equipment set up there in , in

18:59.427 --> 19:01.649
Portsmouth and that's not an easy thing

19:01.649 --> 19:03.871
to do . And Dean and his team have been

19:03.871 --> 19:05.760
working piracy over the last year

19:05.760 --> 19:07.927
trying to get that equipment set . And

19:07.927 --> 19:07.459
I think we're gonna see that come with

19:07.469 --> 19:09.650
a wishing here and uh here by the end

19:09.660 --> 19:11.882
of the summer , which is just amazing .

19:12.520 --> 19:14.520
I talked about us being in a global

19:14.520 --> 19:16.631
crisis response force . You know what

19:16.631 --> 19:18.576
that really means is we have to be

19:18.576 --> 19:20.687
prepared for immediate use . Ok . And

19:20.687 --> 19:22.631
Dean and , and his team at medical

19:22.631 --> 19:24.464
Battalion have crushed that this

19:24.464 --> 19:26.687
organization is ready to go and they've

19:26.687 --> 19:28.742
proved that time and time again , be

19:28.742 --> 19:30.853
being a ready organization allows our

19:30.853 --> 19:32.742
me f commander and our commandant

19:32.742 --> 19:34.853
flexibility and options to be able to

19:34.853 --> 19:36.631
respond to crisis . And medical

19:36.631 --> 19:38.742
battalions come through time and time

19:38.742 --> 19:40.909
again . I can just , I'll use the last

19:40.909 --> 19:43.300
year , for example , we've had many of

19:43.310 --> 19:45.366
uh of the medical battalion folks on

19:45.366 --> 19:47.366
prepared to deploy orders , right ?

19:47.366 --> 19:49.532
We've had multiple crisis as many of ,

19:49.532 --> 19:51.643
you know , over the last uh year plus

19:51.643 --> 19:53.866
and we've been responding to those in ,

19:53.866 --> 19:55.921
in , in a myriad of ways , but we've

19:55.921 --> 19:58.280
had medical battalion on PTDO orders or

19:58.290 --> 20:00.346
prepared to deploy orders on and off

20:00.346 --> 20:02.568
for almost a year . Right ? And , and ,

20:02.568 --> 20:04.568
and no , and them being ready to go

20:04.568 --> 20:06.679
provides options and it's just , it's

20:06.679 --> 20:08.901
just been amazing to watch . Hey , like

20:08.901 --> 20:11.123
any other unit in second MLG , if I was

20:11.123 --> 20:13.123
to sit here and list all the things

20:13.123 --> 20:15.179
that this organization has done over

20:15.179 --> 20:17.346
the last two years , you know , I'd be

20:17.346 --> 20:17.000
here all morning and none of you want

20:17.010 --> 20:19.232
to hear me talk much longer . So , um ,

20:19.390 --> 20:21.279
but I , I'd be remiss if I didn't

20:21.279 --> 20:23.446
mention a couple of things . So , over

20:23.446 --> 20:25.223
the last two years , 100 and 39

20:25.420 --> 20:27.680
operations , indoor training exercises

20:27.689 --> 20:29.578
that , that this organization has

20:29.578 --> 20:32.130
participated in anywhere from , you

20:32.140 --> 20:35.699
know , burn trauma , burn rehab in UAE

20:35.839 --> 20:38.640
T triple CT , triple C training in

20:38.650 --> 20:42.219
Senegal , um experimentation with uh uh

20:42.280 --> 20:45.160
roll two light maneuver . Um the

20:45.170 --> 20:48.300
support to our m uh the support to uh

20:48.310 --> 20:50.849
to uh all of all the other CL BS that

20:50.859 --> 20:54.359
go out the door . Um We also uh

20:54.369 --> 20:56.647
have have tasked medical battalion and ,

20:56.647 --> 20:58.729
and the , and the CEO with uh with

20:58.739 --> 21:00.628
doing all the T triple C training

21:00.628 --> 21:02.989
inside of second MLG given a facility

21:03.000 --> 21:04.944
and people to do that and now it's

21:04.944 --> 21:07.111
their responsibility to do that . No ,

21:07.111 --> 21:09.333
no easy task . Um And I could , all the

21:09.333 --> 21:11.500
Raven X is in support of Mars Sock and

21:11.500 --> 21:13.667
I could probably go on , I could go on

21:13.667 --> 21:15.333
and on and on about what this

21:15.333 --> 21:17.556
organization has done . The point to me

21:17.556 --> 21:19.979
bringing that up is that , um you know ,

21:19.989 --> 21:21.822
Dean and his team are absolutely

21:21.822 --> 21:23.933
integrated with the rest of the MLG .

21:23.959 --> 21:26.070
Um Health service support is only one

21:26.070 --> 21:28.181
function of logistics and , and , and

21:28.181 --> 21:30.126
they don't go out alone most times

21:30.126 --> 21:32.126
they're , they're integrated with ,

21:32.126 --> 21:34.292
with , with some other capability here

21:34.292 --> 21:36.403
at the MLG and , and they , and , and

21:36.403 --> 21:38.237
he , and his team are seamlessly

21:38.237 --> 21:40.237
integrated with the rest of the MLG

21:40.237 --> 21:42.348
being able to provide that incredible

21:42.348 --> 21:44.403
capability that I , that I mentioned

21:44.403 --> 21:46.530
earlier . Um So just for , for , for

21:46.540 --> 21:48.762
the audience awareness , uh yesterday ,

21:48.762 --> 21:50.984
we presented Dean with uh with a , with

21:50.984 --> 21:53.151
a legion of merit for his time here as

21:53.151 --> 21:55.262
the CEO of Second Medical Battalion .

21:55.400 --> 21:57.770
Uh Dean is uh on his way out the door .

21:57.780 --> 21:59.947
Obviously , he's going to the national

21:59.947 --> 22:02.224
capital region uh to be uh to the Navy ,

22:02.224 --> 22:04.447
uh National Defense University to be an

22:04.447 --> 22:06.613
instructor up there . And in no better

22:06.613 --> 22:08.724
way , I would offer to give back than

22:08.724 --> 22:10.891
to be able to go and , and , and , and

22:10.891 --> 22:13.002
be an instructor at that university .

22:13.002 --> 22:15.002
So Dean Ebeth , like just thanks so

22:15.002 --> 22:17.058
much for the last two years and what

22:17.058 --> 22:19.224
the two of you have been able to do to

22:19.224 --> 22:21.391
this organization . Um We're certainly

22:21.391 --> 22:23.391
gonna miss you and we wish you fair

22:23.391 --> 22:25.613
wins and following seasons . So Captain

22:25.613 --> 22:27.780
Tollar first to you and your husband .

22:27.780 --> 22:29.836
Welcome and your family welcome . Um

22:29.849 --> 22:31.738
You know , you have an incredible

22:31.738 --> 22:33.960
reputation and , and so many incredible

22:33.960 --> 22:36.182
experiences most recently , she was the

22:36.182 --> 22:38.405
Chief of Medical Plans at Indo Paycom .

22:38.405 --> 22:40.293
And if you read her bio and , and

22:40.293 --> 22:42.182
listen to her , she's got so many

22:42.182 --> 22:44.819
experiences , a real world operational

22:44.829 --> 22:46.890
experiences in the Pacific , some in

22:46.900 --> 22:48.567
the Middle East during combat

22:48.567 --> 22:50.622
operations . And , and I think those

22:50.622 --> 22:53.910
experiences that she's had um are gonna

22:53.920 --> 22:56.253
be value added to Medical Battalion and ,

22:56.253 --> 22:58.309
and second MLG and two E as we think

22:58.309 --> 23:00.420
about how we're gonna fight this next

23:00.420 --> 23:02.364
fight . So , so I think you're the

23:02.364 --> 23:04.642
right person to come into this job and ,

23:04.642 --> 23:06.698
and continue what , what the team is

23:06.698 --> 23:08.753
already doing . Um So welcome to you

23:08.753 --> 23:10.531
and your family and , and , and

23:10.531 --> 23:12.753
certainly proud to have you on , on the

23:12.753 --> 23:12.410
team and look forward to working with

23:12.420 --> 23:15.219
you . Hey , lastly , you know , I

23:15.229 --> 23:17.530
talked about honoring this organization

23:17.540 --> 23:19.318
and I think by all the things I

23:19.318 --> 23:21.262
mentioned we're doing that , but I

23:21.262 --> 23:23.096
would remiss if I just didn't in

23:23.096 --> 23:25.096
publicly talk about the , the , the

23:25.096 --> 23:27.318
marines and sailors and in particular ,

23:27.318 --> 23:30.819
the sailors of this organization . So I

23:30.829 --> 23:33.119
would offer that . This organization

23:33.300 --> 23:35.339
provides an exquisite capability .

23:35.930 --> 23:39.910
There is more training and education in

23:39.920 --> 23:42.040
the 750 marines and sailors in this

23:42.050 --> 23:44.272
organization and probably anywhere else

23:44.272 --> 23:47.410
in the mess . Ok . These sailors ,

23:48.040 --> 23:51.180
these sailors have other options , ok ?

23:51.310 --> 23:54.119
They have other options , but they

23:54.130 --> 23:56.099
choose to wear the cloth of their

23:56.109 --> 23:58.819
nation as United States navy sailors

23:58.829 --> 24:01.760
and serve on a Navy Marine Corps team

24:01.770 --> 24:04.270
in this formation . And I'll tell you ,

24:04.439 --> 24:07.119
um it's not lost on me whenever I'm

24:07.130 --> 24:09.810
around second medical battalion . Uh

24:09.819 --> 24:11.763
That , that , that , that , that ,

24:11.763 --> 24:13.986
that's , that's a fact that we , we all

24:13.986 --> 24:16.208
should probably just acknowledge and uh

24:16.208 --> 24:18.375
and , and so for , for the folks , for

24:18.375 --> 24:20.486
the , for the Marines and sailors , a

24:20.486 --> 24:22.597
second medical battalion . Thanks for

24:22.597 --> 24:24.541
what you all do every single day ,

24:24.541 --> 24:26.763

24:26.763 --> 24:28.875

24:53.290 --> 24:55.869

24:55.880 --> 24:58.359
following the CG in my remarks , which

24:58.369 --> 25:00.500
is always a tough spot to be in . Um

25:00.510 --> 25:02.677
And , and hopefully , you realize he's

25:02.677 --> 25:04.788
one of our biggest cheerleaders too .

25:04.788 --> 25:06.954
So I appreciate that , sir very much .

25:06.954 --> 25:09.689
Um The other thing that I , I feel

25:09.699 --> 25:11.921
comfortable in is that most of you will

25:11.921 --> 25:14.088
not remember a single thing I say this

25:14.088 --> 25:16.199
morning . So with that , I have a lot

25:16.199 --> 25:18.310
of latitude with my remarks . So , so

25:18.310 --> 25:20.532
stick with me for a minute . Uh But you

25:20.532 --> 25:22.699
will remember uh how sharp the Marines

25:22.699 --> 25:24.921
and sailors of Second Medical Battalion

25:24.921 --> 25:26.643
looked this morning , run away

25:29.660 --> 25:32.349
and , and you will remember the Second

25:32.359 --> 25:34.415
Marine Division Band , our next door

25:34.415 --> 25:36.469
neighbors uh that have been uh

25:36.479 --> 25:38.869
serenading us with motivational music

25:38.880 --> 25:41.250
every day over the past two years and

25:41.260 --> 25:43.880
it's been awesome . So I they are also

25:43.890 --> 25:46.057
spread very thin . They've got back to

25:46.057 --> 25:48.609
back uh and overlapping gigs this

25:48.619 --> 25:50.897
morning . Uh But being a good neighbor ,

25:50.897 --> 25:53.119
they were nice enough to peel us off an

25:53.119 --> 25:55.397
amazing group . So thank you very much ,

25:55.397 --> 25:55.209
please . A round of applause .

26:00.790 --> 26:03.709
I , I wanna talk a bit about uh dive

26:03.719 --> 26:05.941
into a little bit more than what the CG

26:05.941 --> 26:07.997
started with , about what I asked of

26:07.997 --> 26:10.163
these uh sailors and marines two years

26:10.163 --> 26:12.790
ago . Uh First of all , I asked them to

26:12.800 --> 26:14.911
be tactically sound , be good at your

26:14.911 --> 26:17.849
day job . Understand your gear , know

26:17.859 --> 26:20.369
how things are supposed to work . They

26:20.380 --> 26:22.602
have practiced that over and over again

26:22.602 --> 26:24.547
in two of the best uh navy medical

26:24.547 --> 26:26.713
hospital facilities that we have . But

26:26.713 --> 26:28.719
they've also translated that into

26:28.729 --> 26:30.979
canvas tents , into buildings of

26:30.989 --> 26:33.400
opportunity into simulation centers .

26:33.410 --> 26:35.410
So they can dig a little bit deeper

26:35.410 --> 26:37.577
into what real world trauma would look

26:37.577 --> 26:39.132
like . They have done a , a

26:39.132 --> 26:41.354
professional and phenomenal job of just

26:41.354 --> 26:43.410
continually improving that I want to

26:43.410 --> 26:45.577
tack on uh the addition of the marines

26:45.577 --> 26:47.743
to our formation . Thank you again for

26:47.743 --> 26:49.688
that , sir as well . Uh We got the

26:49.688 --> 26:51.854
marines back and that was just a total

26:51.854 --> 26:54.021
force multiplier . Now , we're able to

26:54.021 --> 26:56.021
get underway and do our own thing ,

26:56.021 --> 26:58.132
right ? Uh Not that we've ever had an

26:58.132 --> 27:00.243
issue getting help from uh around the

27:00.243 --> 27:02.466
MLG , but phenomenal change . So from a

27:02.466 --> 27:04.689
tactical perspective , winning . Um The

27:04.699 --> 27:06.890
second thing I asked of my folks is to

27:06.900 --> 27:08.956
build a tribe . I wanted everybody ,

27:08.956 --> 27:10.956
number one , family and friends are

27:10.956 --> 27:13.067
important and I want to get to that a

27:13.067 --> 27:14.900
little bit later , but it's also

27:14.900 --> 27:17.011
important to build your work family ,

27:17.011 --> 27:19.233
build your platoon family . So I leaned

27:19.233 --> 27:21.344
heavily on them as small unit leaders

27:21.344 --> 27:23.459
to build that group . They built a

27:23.469 --> 27:26.689
tribe . They are tight . Morale is good .

27:26.699 --> 27:28.755
Everybody is doing the right thing ,

27:28.755 --> 27:30.810
taking care of each other , but also

27:30.810 --> 27:32.866
pressing on each other even better .

27:32.866 --> 27:35.032
And I could not be prouder of , of how

27:35.032 --> 27:37.255
they built the tribe . So excited about

27:37.255 --> 27:39.421
that . Uh Lastly , I asked them to set

27:39.421 --> 27:41.477
some personal goals for themselves ,

27:41.477 --> 27:44.349
education , pt uh spiritual meditate ,

27:44.359 --> 27:46.581
put a paddle in the water , but somehow

27:46.581 --> 27:48.670
get your chi I balance right . Um So

27:48.680 --> 27:51.013
just to brag on folks a little bit more ,

27:51.013 --> 27:53.189
uh we have folks who completed college

27:53.199 --> 27:55.032
while they were here , we've had

27:55.032 --> 27:57.199
enlisted folks get commissioned in the

27:57.199 --> 27:59.366
Marine Corps , get commissioned in the

27:59.366 --> 28:01.532
Navy . Uh Folks really excelling at uh

28:01.532 --> 28:03.643
at bettering themselves while they've

28:03.643 --> 28:05.866
been a battalion at the same time . One

28:05.866 --> 28:07.977
of my favorite little pieces of Bling

28:07.977 --> 28:10.032
here are the FMFP , the Fleet Marine

28:10.032 --> 28:12.032
Force P . So this means you've went

28:12.032 --> 28:14.143
through a rigorous training process ,

28:14.143 --> 28:16.143
you have been boarded and you prove

28:16.143 --> 28:17.977
that you speak Marine and you're

28:17.977 --> 28:20.199
standing by to support the Marine Corps

28:20.199 --> 28:22.310
mission . So proud of this p A lot of

28:22.310 --> 28:24.421
the sailors up in this formation have

28:24.421 --> 28:24.349
this pen . So I'm gonna well up here

28:24.359 --> 28:26.470
real quick . Um But this pen is a big

28:26.470 --> 28:28.303
deal , so , so proud of them for

28:28.303 --> 28:32.079
getting that . Lastly ,

28:32.089 --> 28:33.978
all of this would not be possible

28:33.978 --> 28:36.089
without the support of a lot of folks

28:36.089 --> 28:38.200
here in the group . So , um , General

28:38.200 --> 28:40.533
Williams always had his foot on our gas ,

28:40.533 --> 28:43.250
always motivating us to do better . And

28:44.050 --> 28:46.217
uh , oh , sometimes I would sweat it ,

28:46.217 --> 28:48.439
sir . But , but I , I never , I never ,

28:48.449 --> 28:50.719
uh , turned down the task and the guy

28:50.729 --> 28:52.840
always got it done so appreciative of

28:52.840 --> 28:56.729
the gas that he gets , um , commanders .

28:56.739 --> 28:58.900
Uh Wow . So I , I've had the good

28:58.910 --> 29:00.966
fortune of being in all three active

29:00.966 --> 29:04.150
MLG si have never been in an MLG where

29:04.160 --> 29:06.271
you couldn't call . First time ever .

29:06.271 --> 29:08.327
I've been in an MLG where you call a

29:08.327 --> 29:07.989
commander . Number one , they pick up

29:08.000 --> 29:10.410
the phone and number two , they ask how

29:10.420 --> 29:13.369
much , where and how many total support

29:13.380 --> 29:15.602
from the commander types . Uh The , and

29:15.602 --> 29:17.880
the senior enlisted folks are the same .

29:17.880 --> 29:19.824
Just always pick up picking up the

29:19.824 --> 29:22.047
phone , helping us get the job done and

29:22.047 --> 29:24.158
we've done the same for them . So MLG

29:24.158 --> 29:26.380
team always win it . And I , and I love

29:26.380 --> 29:28.602
that about being here . Um Our civilian

29:28.602 --> 29:30.713
staff , we , we've gained some , some

29:30.713 --> 29:32.824
great civilians in our team . Uh We ,

29:32.824 --> 29:34.713
we lost uh tom to retirement that

29:34.713 --> 29:36.491
gained Justin . So our , our uh

29:36.491 --> 29:39.219
deployment court II , I still want to

29:39.229 --> 29:42.819
call him fros , sir . Um Our DC RS um

29:43.319 --> 29:46.430
just DRC . Thank you . That should

29:46.439 --> 29:49.030
still be froze , right ? Um But , but

29:49.040 --> 29:50.929
those folks taking care of us and

29:50.929 --> 29:53.040
taking care of families , taking care

29:53.040 --> 29:54.762
of single sailors , uh , force

29:54.762 --> 29:56.873
multiplier , Nicky , smart , um , our

29:56.873 --> 29:58.929
behavioral health tech person , uh ,

29:58.929 --> 30:00.984
just making sure that we are looking

30:00.984 --> 30:00.829
out after ourselves and looking out

30:00.839 --> 30:02.950
after our troops and it's , uh , just

30:02.950 --> 30:05.117
been phenomenal having those civilians

30:05.117 --> 30:07.283
on board . Um , I wanna talk about the

30:07.283 --> 30:09.172
triad . Every , anybody who's had

30:09.172 --> 30:11.117
command realizes how important the

30:11.117 --> 30:13.228
triad is . And if you got a bad one ,

30:13.228 --> 30:15.339
you're gonna have a bad tour . Um , I

30:15.339 --> 30:17.450
have , I've been lucky enough to have

30:17.450 --> 30:19.561
the , the tallest commander of troops

30:19.561 --> 30:21.609
as , as my ex O he's on his way to

30:21.619 --> 30:23.675
first met to be the CEO could not be

30:23.675 --> 30:26.780
prouder of him as well , right ? Um I

30:26.790 --> 30:28.957
got , I got the lucky draw , Jill Beus

30:29.020 --> 30:31.709
uh as my first master chief , just

30:31.719 --> 30:34.719
setting the table for the year and uh

30:34.729 --> 30:38.319
holy cow . So this , this triad always

30:38.329 --> 30:40.662
started off with a laugh in the morning ,

30:40.662 --> 30:42.829
always a good attitude and that always

30:42.829 --> 30:44.996
went down to the troops . I think that

30:44.996 --> 30:47.107
carried through . And then we were so

30:47.107 --> 30:49.329
lucky she hand picked uh senior chief ,

30:49.329 --> 30:51.662
Mike Stewart to step up and be the C MC .

30:51.662 --> 30:53.829
And man , it was like , we didn't miss

30:53.829 --> 30:53.439
a beat . He's , he's been punching at

30:53.449 --> 30:55.560
the master chief , wait for , for the

30:55.560 --> 30:57.505
whole year . So I , I could not be

30:57.505 --> 30:59.560
happier or prouder of , of the group

30:59.560 --> 31:01.782
that I had in my triad . So thank you .

31:01.782 --> 31:05.579
Thank you . Um Family and friends . Wow ,

31:05.829 --> 31:07.940
it's great to have everybody here . I

31:07.940 --> 31:09.996
want to call on my , my brother John

31:09.996 --> 31:12.051
from college . Um So John and I have

31:12.051 --> 31:14.162
known each other for a long time . He

31:14.162 --> 31:16.273
uh was at my navy career kickoff . He

31:16.273 --> 31:18.385
was there when I proposed to Ebeth on

31:18.385 --> 31:20.273
the parade deck right after I got

31:20.273 --> 31:22.218
commissioned . He was here for our

31:22.218 --> 31:23.885
Lejeune kickoff , which was a

31:23.885 --> 31:26.107
phenomenal , you know , start two years

31:26.107 --> 31:27.996
ago and , and you're here for our

31:27.996 --> 31:30.107
Lejeune , close out , so happy you're

31:30.107 --> 31:32.829
here , brother . Uh My Ebeth . Wow . Um

31:32.969 --> 31:35.191
Yeah , this is gonna be short because I

31:35.191 --> 31:37.358
can't , I can't talk for a really long

31:37.358 --> 31:39.413
anybody . You Eva um my , my support

31:39.413 --> 31:41.829
system , my , the , the person that I

31:41.839 --> 31:43.959
bounce everything off of and , and

31:43.969 --> 31:46.191
she's just been my total support unit .

31:46.191 --> 31:48.247
So I , I appreciate you . I know the

31:48.247 --> 31:50.469
two years was hard on you too . Uh Some

31:50.469 --> 31:52.469
family ups and downs and , and just

31:52.469 --> 31:54.636
other things and uh you've just been a

31:54.636 --> 31:56.802
trooper and stuck in there and I , and

31:56.802 --> 31:58.802
I , I appreciate you so much . So ,

31:58.802 --> 32:00.802
here's , here's my favorite part of

32:00.802 --> 32:02.636
this speech because it's my last

32:02.636 --> 32:04.969
paragraph , right . I asked to her . Um ,

32:04.969 --> 32:07.191
she and I started out when we were baby

32:07.191 --> 32:09.358
lieutenants at Third Medical Battalion

32:09.358 --> 32:11.469
back in 2007 , still trying to figure

32:11.469 --> 32:13.880
out how to spell Marine Corps . But we

32:13.890 --> 32:16.060
had a great a , a bunch of 29 Palms

32:16.069 --> 32:18.579
implants , Aesa . And we just had a

32:18.589 --> 32:21.219
great solid group and uh , they

32:21.229 --> 32:23.709
welcomed us aboard , uh , her Brett ,

32:23.719 --> 32:26.319
wherever you are , Brett Hicks . And ,

32:26.329 --> 32:28.218
uh , so that kicks me off into my

32:28.218 --> 32:30.218
Marine Corps path that I've been on

32:30.218 --> 32:32.489
pretty much ever since . Uh , but Aesa

32:32.849 --> 32:35.550
just solid leader , very well rounded ,

32:35.800 --> 32:38.329
uh , heart leading leader . Um , and ,

32:38.339 --> 32:40.395
and she's going to do great things .

32:40.395 --> 32:42.561
She already understands . She comes in

32:42.561 --> 32:44.672
understanding how we work and what we

32:44.672 --> 32:44.400
do and , and you're just gonna make the

32:44.410 --> 32:46.739
team so much better . So , so excited .

32:46.810 --> 32:49.689
Uh Two years ago , we were at the uh FM
