WEBVTT 00:03.829 --> 00:05.773 First , my name is Premier General 00:05.773 --> 00:07.670 Roger F Dion Junior and I'm the 00:07.679 --> 00:09.846 commanding general of the Army Reserve 00:09.846 --> 00:12.659 Aviation Command in Kentucky . I'm 00:12.670 --> 00:14.614 honored to be with eight battalion 00:14.614 --> 00:17.909 Flying Tigers as we conduct our F Y 23 00:17.920 --> 00:21.399 Aviation safety stand out over the last 00:21.409 --> 00:24.159 several weeks . Arm Aviation has lost 00:25.040 --> 00:25.690 world team 00:28.079 --> 00:31.280 soldiers and air crew members , two 00:31.360 --> 00:35.069 Tennessee National Guard , 901st 00:35.680 --> 00:39.360 23 . Recently in the 11th division of 00:39.380 --> 00:43.229 Alaska , that is an 00:43.240 --> 00:45.669 enormous loss to the entire Arm 00:45.680 --> 00:47.791 Aviation family . And what we want to 00:47.791 --> 00:50.319 do is pause and think about how we do 00:50.330 --> 00:52.552 the operations so that in the very near 00:52.552 --> 00:54.663 future when Flying Tigers get back to 00:54.663 --> 00:56.663 flight operations , get back to the 00:56.663 --> 00:58.830 ground operations and everyone has had 00:58.830 --> 01:01.259 a chance to stop and think and exercise 01:01.330 --> 01:03.799 their safety there . Does that make 01:03.810 --> 01:06.239 sense ? So first I need to talk to all 01:06.250 --> 01:07.980 of you . This is not just an 01:07.989 --> 01:10.156 administrative stand down . This is an 01:10.156 --> 01:12.290 essential part of how we do business 01:12.400 --> 01:14.720 with you for a second about uh how we 01:14.730 --> 01:16.720 utilize our simulator and to some 01:16.730 --> 01:18.897 extent , you're very fortunate because 01:18.897 --> 01:22.260 you have your back airport and to our 01:22.279 --> 01:24.830 entire formation . The simulator is an 01:24.839 --> 01:27.269 essential tool on how we conduct 01:27.279 --> 01:29.390 aviation operations because it allows 01:29.390 --> 01:31.730 air air crews to learn in a hands on 01:31.739 --> 01:34.290 environment without risk to aircraft 01:34.300 --> 01:36.639 and soldiers . So I encourage everyone 01:36.959 --> 01:39.292 across the entire Army Reserve Aviation , 01:39.720 --> 01:41.776 find the opportunities to get to the 01:41.776 --> 01:43.998 simulator . I totally recognize that in 01:43.998 --> 01:46.109 some places in some locations that is 01:46.109 --> 01:48.220 really hard to do . But I want you to 01:48.220 --> 01:50.260 use our annual training or extended 01:50.269 --> 01:52.900 combat training resources . I want you 01:52.910 --> 01:55.379 to use our T Y . I want you to use our 01:55.389 --> 01:57.333 scheduling . I want you to use our 01:57.333 --> 01:59.529 abilities to fund you to help you get 01:59.540 --> 02:02.660 to your simulator and fly . I want you 02:02.669 --> 02:04.836 to stand up and I want to tell us what 02:04.836 --> 02:07.002 you experienced in that scene and what 02:07.002 --> 02:08.558 made you a better shooter . 02:11.070 --> 02:13.559 Hi , this is Sergeant Nicole again . Uh 02:13.570 --> 02:15.459 I shot with him a couple of weeks 02:15.459 --> 02:17.570 before we did gun and I found it very 02:17.570 --> 02:20.380 home . It's basically the same thing 02:20.389 --> 02:22.500 that you do in real life in the 02:22.509 --> 02:25.929 aircraft . So I find it very beneficial . 02:25.940 --> 02:28.990 They also simulate it with N D G s . So 02:29.000 --> 02:30.669 it's , we need to start out 02:32.880 --> 02:34.602 all around . I think it's very 02:34.602 --> 02:36.602 important to do that prior . You're 02:36.602 --> 02:39.039 going . I did qualify , 02:44.149 --> 02:46.093 I need everyone to think about how 02:46.093 --> 02:48.149 you're integrating risk management . 02:48.309 --> 02:50.476 But in that process and make sure that 02:50.476 --> 02:52.476 you're thinking about what could go 02:52.476 --> 02:54.365 wrong . And a lot of soldiers are 02:54.365 --> 02:56.420 really good about forecasting . What 02:56.420 --> 02:58.642 could go wrong because all of us senior 02:58.642 --> 03:00.531 leaders robin , we need this many 03:00.531 --> 03:02.753 resources to make this happen . Folks , 03:02.753 --> 03:04.642 I need the junior leaders and the 03:04.642 --> 03:06.698 junior soldiers to be thinking about 03:06.698 --> 03:06.669 how you're integrating risk management 03:06.679 --> 03:09.160 and what resources you need . Don't let 03:09.169 --> 03:11.520 stupid just keep happening . Right . 03:11.770 --> 03:14.309 The ladder in the front to the third 03:14.320 --> 03:16.542 floor to change the light bulb . That's 03:16.542 --> 03:18.431 not a good plan . Figure out what 03:18.431 --> 03:20.598 resources you need to change the light 03:20.598 --> 03:22.653 bulb with the right , with the right 03:22.653 --> 03:22.110 people with the right P . Does that 03:22.210 --> 03:24.210 make sense ? So you got to have the 03:24.210 --> 03:26.880 risk and I want to call on the aviation 03:26.889 --> 03:29.539 support facility safety , which is 03:31.580 --> 03:34.139 Mr Shaw is dual status , which means he 03:34.149 --> 03:36.419 works as a safety officer in the 03:36.429 --> 03:38.485 aviation support facility , but he's 03:38.485 --> 03:40.649 also a leader and an officer and an 03:40.660 --> 03:43.759 aviator in in our formation . And I 03:43.770 --> 03:45.770 want him to talk about a little bit 03:45.770 --> 03:47.970 about how we ensure risk man for both 03:47.979 --> 03:50.759 the ground and the air component of how 03:50.770 --> 03:51.770 we do train , 03:56.789 --> 03:58.630 see Charlie . And 04:00.589 --> 04:02.700 so basically , the first thing I want 04:02.700 --> 04:04.811 to say is the army says everybody's a 04:04.811 --> 04:07.050 safety officer , right ? And our risk 04:07.210 --> 04:09.377 is always going to start from the time 04:09.377 --> 04:11.321 you wake up . Nobody likes getting 04:11.321 --> 04:14.240 burned usually . So I think the most 04:14.250 --> 04:17.010 important thing is to identify what's 04:17.019 --> 04:19.186 going to happen or what could happen . 04:19.186 --> 04:21.408 And just like anyone else , you want to 04:21.408 --> 04:23.352 make some type of plan so that the 04:23.352 --> 04:25.408 accident , accident doesn't happen . 04:25.600 --> 04:28.260 And then for the army , you're going to 04:28.269 --> 04:30.491 identify , you're going to assess those 04:30.491 --> 04:32.491 incidents , you're going to develop 04:32.491 --> 04:34.547 controls , you're going to implement 04:34.547 --> 04:36.602 them and then supervise , evaluate , 04:36.602 --> 04:38.658 see if you need to make changes . As 04:38.658 --> 04:40.713 leaders , it's the responsibility of 04:40.713 --> 04:42.825 all leaders to try to implement those 04:42.825 --> 04:42.630 changes and see if any changes need to 04:42.640 --> 04:45.359 be completed . But as those that are 04:45.369 --> 04:47.480 not leaders , they are soldiers , you 04:47.480 --> 04:49.702 guys are closest to most of the risks . 04:49.702 --> 04:51.925 So it's important that you come to your 04:51.925 --> 04:54.036 leaders with the issues that you guys 04:54.036 --> 04:56.258 see and make sure that the leaders know 04:56.258 --> 04:58.480 so that they can come up with a plan to 04:58.480 --> 05:00.202 keep you guys safer and openly 05:00.202 --> 05:02.313 hopefully prevent accidents or future 05:02.313 --> 05:04.160 losses . Folks . We do think , 05:06.380 --> 05:08.547 yes . Would you pay more just to crank 05:08.547 --> 05:11.510 an aircraft ? Do you do paperwork just 05:11.519 --> 05:13.899 to get a convoy or a truck moving ? Of 05:13.910 --> 05:16.279 course . But if you don't understand 05:16.290 --> 05:18.457 the risks behind that paper and in the 05:18.457 --> 05:20.679 process and you just let an operator go 05:20.679 --> 05:22.940 out to the truck , the aircraft , the 05:22.950 --> 05:24.894 range and they don't know what the 05:24.894 --> 05:27.006 mitigation steps are , then it is not 05:27.006 --> 05:29.250 mitigated . If it was a medium , it's 05:29.260 --> 05:31.482 not a low , it's still a medium . If it 05:31.482 --> 05:33.593 was a high , it's not a medium , it's 05:33.593 --> 05:35.593 still high . If the operators don't 05:35.593 --> 05:37.816 know how to do it . So it starts with a 05:37.816 --> 05:39.760 training plan and goes all the way 05:39.760 --> 05:41.816 through to the operator . You got to 05:41.816 --> 05:43.927 make sure that safety is part of what 05:43.927 --> 05:47.600 we do , tell me how you 05:47.959 --> 05:51.720 go might happen . 05:52.660 --> 05:55.130 So at our company , before we , for 05:55.179 --> 05:57.799 example , we plan an E C T I gave all 05:57.809 --> 06:00.149 my senior warrants together , my safety 06:00.160 --> 06:02.390 officer , first sergeant , we all get 06:02.399 --> 06:04.732 together and we talk about the training , 06:04.732 --> 06:07.010 but then we also talk about , you know , 06:07.010 --> 06:09.066 the risk that comes with it . Crew , 06:09.066 --> 06:11.630 endurance , crew rest , what kind of 06:11.640 --> 06:13.751 training they are going to be doing ? 06:13.751 --> 06:15.918 What do we need to do the training and 06:15.918 --> 06:17.807 is are our crews ready to do that 06:17.807 --> 06:20.029 training ? And if not , we come up with 06:20.029 --> 06:22.380 training events here with supporting 06:22.390 --> 06:25.480 units that we can practice that 06:25.489 --> 06:28.000 training and then actually execute that 06:28.010 --> 06:30.160 training effectively like we would in 06:30.179 --> 06:33.959 combat . I'm very proud of what you 06:33.970 --> 06:37.279 do here at , you do it safely . I'm 06:37.290 --> 06:39.290 very proud of what we do across the 06:39.290 --> 06:41.457 Army Reserve Aviation plan and we have 06:41.457 --> 06:43.457 not had a class a accident which is 06:43.457 --> 06:45.179 millions of dollars of loss of 06:45.179 --> 06:47.401 equipment or loss of life . We have not 06:47.401 --> 06:49.457 had a class , a accident in the last 06:49.457 --> 06:53.140 two and even beyond across the army , 06:53.190 --> 06:55.010 we are seeing issues and I just 06:55.019 --> 06:57.510 mentioned that we have the 14 soldiers 06:57.519 --> 06:59.519 and American members who lost their 06:59.519 --> 07:01.575 lives just in the last few weeks and 07:01.575 --> 07:03.741 none of them went to work that day and 07:03.741 --> 07:05.852 thought to themselves . I think today 07:05.852 --> 07:05.600 would be a bad day if I don't do this , 07:05.609 --> 07:07.776 well , if I don't do this , right . So 07:07.776 --> 07:09.553 I want you to understand in our 07:09.553 --> 07:11.799 formation that we're very proud of our 07:11.809 --> 07:14.700 stats . I want you to not think with 07:14.709 --> 07:17.070 any form of hubris that we've got a 07:17.079 --> 07:19.301 wire that we've got it figured out that 07:19.301 --> 07:21.468 we understand all of it and we somehow 07:21.468 --> 07:23.635 do this so well . I'm going to call on 07:23.635 --> 07:25.690 Mr Brad Johnson and I'm going to ask 07:25.690 --> 07:28.779 him , how do you not trust stats and 07:28.790 --> 07:31.012 how do you just keep an eye on safety ? 07:31.570 --> 07:33.681 Mr Johnson also works at the aviation 07:33.681 --> 07:34.737 support facility . 07:38.359 --> 07:41.309 Yeah . Um , we just , our big thing 07:41.320 --> 07:43.542 with facility is we go around , we work 07:43.542 --> 07:45.764 with the aircraft every day . We try to 07:45.764 --> 07:47.876 take care of them , maintain them the 07:47.876 --> 07:49.820 best we can . But we also look for 07:49.820 --> 07:52.042 trends and our supervisor on analysis . 07:52.042 --> 07:54.750 Um , our biggest hear some birds and 07:54.760 --> 07:57.630 birds using , but we also look for 07:57.640 --> 07:59.807 everything going on . We have a emails 07:59.807 --> 08:02.070 and messages and a come out for our 08:02.209 --> 08:05.170 whole job is to do what we can safely 08:05.179 --> 08:07.401 do what we can correctly , but also put 08:07.401 --> 08:10.119 out a good product . There's maybe 25 08:10.130 --> 08:12.899 of us that work on 45 aircraft sitting 08:12.910 --> 08:15.132 on our flight line . Very short staff . 08:15.500 --> 08:17.667 Uh we , we put out a good product . We 08:17.667 --> 08:19.889 do good work , we do it safe , we do it 08:19.889 --> 08:23.070 slowly , we keep our metrics up the 08:23.079 --> 08:25.380 last two major accidents . One man in 08:25.390 --> 08:27.612 the last 48 hours . And of course , the 08:27.612 --> 08:29.779 war came , the air crews were involved 08:29.779 --> 08:32.179 in multi ship operations in the case of 08:32.190 --> 08:34.412 Fort Campbell , who was also at night . 08:34.859 --> 08:37.710 Folks during your multi ship operation , 08:37.789 --> 08:40.150 we've got to be , we've got to make 08:40.159 --> 08:42.359 sure that we're managing all of the 08:42.369 --> 08:44.591 risks and we're thinking very closely , 08:44.591 --> 08:46.840 I'm going to combine two topics . There 08:46.849 --> 08:48.905 are times that we're also doing very 08:48.905 --> 08:51.080 tactical , not with the earth . For 08:51.090 --> 08:53.034 those of you who are familiar with 08:53.034 --> 08:55.201 their air crew standards , we have the 08:55.201 --> 08:58.919 822,900 in those multi operation . 08:58.929 --> 09:02.010 It is essential that we are head on and 09:02.020 --> 09:04.187 that we are really making sure that we 09:04.187 --> 09:06.409 with deliberate attention to detail and 09:06.409 --> 09:08.729 not accepting undue risk . And I know 09:08.739 --> 09:10.950 I'm preaching to fire , there's no one 09:10.960 --> 09:12.849 that's an air crew that thinks to 09:12.849 --> 09:15.016 themselves . I can be kind of cavalier 09:15.016 --> 09:17.349 about this . I know that's not the case , 09:17.349 --> 09:19.460 but somehow those accidents when they 09:19.460 --> 09:21.516 take place and we look back , that's 09:21.516 --> 09:23.571 where it's starting to go wrong . So 09:23.571 --> 09:25.738 we're going to get a debrief on one of 09:25.738 --> 09:27.738 those accidents on May 10th . We're 09:27.738 --> 09:29.793 going to listen to the black boxes , 09:29.793 --> 09:31.793 we're going to understand with some 09:31.793 --> 09:34.016 precision what happened when the safety 09:34.016 --> 09:36.071 reasons . But in all cases , they're 09:36.071 --> 09:35.510 going to come back and they're going to 09:35.520 --> 09:39.109 say likely there is a pilot or crew 09:39.119 --> 09:42.570 input or error or decision or 09:42.580 --> 09:45.479 judgment that led to this . So if 09:45.489 --> 09:47.711 you're one of the piloting command , if 09:47.711 --> 09:50.229 you're a pilot , don't think that we 09:50.239 --> 09:52.250 don't want both sides thinking and 09:52.260 --> 09:55.630 understanding how to manage the , the 09:55.640 --> 09:58.030 multi ship operations . The brand new 09:58.039 --> 10:01.130 fruit chief who's in the back can call 10:01.140 --> 10:04.049 foul can say , knock it off , can say , 10:04.059 --> 10:06.115 hey , let's do this another way that 10:06.115 --> 10:08.337 isn't how we do it . And I'm looking at 10:08.337 --> 10:10.503 the , I'm getting the head knots . You 10:10.503 --> 10:12.781 guys understand what I'm talking about . 10:12.781 --> 10:14.781 Now , let me also translate that to 10:14.781 --> 10:17.539 convoy operator . There have been a lot 10:17.549 --> 10:19.799 of pain , wreck injuries on the ground 10:21.130 --> 10:23.241 and to some extent , there's probably 10:23.241 --> 10:25.380 more injured enlisted in our vehicles 10:25.390 --> 10:27.530 than there is in our aircraft . So 10:27.539 --> 10:29.483 rather just call it a multi ship . 10:29.483 --> 10:31.595 Let's call it multi vehicle . I don't 10:31.595 --> 10:33.706 know what happens when one , when one 10:33.706 --> 10:36.390 heaven reins another . Heaven , the 10:36.400 --> 10:38.450 entire crew of the rear Hemet is 10:38.460 --> 10:40.690 probably going to suffer both broken 10:40.700 --> 10:44.020 legs , minimum . That's what happens . 10:44.099 --> 10:46.155 So I'm asking everyone when you have 10:46.155 --> 10:48.099 multiple pieces of large equipment 10:48.099 --> 10:50.321 operating in close proximity and you're 10:50.321 --> 10:52.543 kind of in charge of that operation due 10:52.543 --> 10:54.599 diligence , make sure we're doing it 10:54.599 --> 10:56.821 well , but keep training towards it . I 10:56.821 --> 10:58.877 should not say stop doing multi ship 10:58.877 --> 11:01.280 operations . We have to train the way 11:01.289 --> 11:03.289 we're going to fight in large scale 11:03.289 --> 11:05.400 combat operations and we've got to be 11:05.400 --> 11:07.567 prepared as soldiers , as leaders , as 11:07.567 --> 11:09.733 operators to do that . Can you help me 11:09.733 --> 11:12.750 do that next topic ? Right . Now . 11:16.830 --> 11:18.919 So we call it crew endurance and the 11:18.929 --> 11:21.289 standard , standard operating proceeds 11:21.369 --> 11:23.258 of the O P . It's actually called 11:23.258 --> 11:25.425 fighter management . Some people think 11:25.425 --> 11:27.591 crew endurance is only for air crews . 11:27.591 --> 11:29.758 Roger thinks crew endurance is for all 11:29.758 --> 11:31.869 of us . So I really want to emphasize 11:31.869 --> 11:33.591 something kind of flips , stop 11:33.591 --> 11:33.299 something . And I've been doing this 11:33.309 --> 11:35.365 since I was here at playing tigers . 11:35.365 --> 11:37.476 And anyone ever seen the soldier says 11:38.570 --> 11:41.179 24 hours on , I took a double . My 11:41.190 --> 11:43.468 buddy was sick . I stayed up all night . 11:43.468 --> 11:45.523 I got the product . I was the battle 11:45.523 --> 11:47.579 captain . I was the hero . I did all 11:47.579 --> 11:49.690 that . Anyone ever seen that or heard 11:49.690 --> 11:51.919 that some of that worked way beyond 11:51.929 --> 11:53.596 what they should have just to 11:53.596 --> 11:55.485 accomplish the mission pulled the 11:55.485 --> 11:57.485 double shift stayed up extra . Does 11:57.485 --> 12:00.869 that make sense ? Soldiers ? You don't 12:00.880 --> 12:03.900 have the authority to you yourself , 12:03.909 --> 12:06.020 work beyond your fighter management . 12:06.469 --> 12:09.450 But the idea is if you work 24 hours , 12:09.460 --> 12:11.682 I don't have the authority to authorize 12:11.682 --> 12:14.039 you 24 hours . You're not the hero . If 12:14.049 --> 12:16.349 you break your true rest . If you break 12:16.359 --> 12:18.248 your fighter management , you are 12:18.248 --> 12:20.469 operating equipment around soldiers as 12:20.479 --> 12:22.710 if you are drunk . You don't have the 12:22.719 --> 12:24.710 capacity to do that . So in the 12:24.719 --> 12:26.886 aircraft , we call that through rest . 12:27.270 --> 12:29.520 But folks , I'm telling you , we have 12:29.530 --> 12:31.697 TV . Sold some of you probably sitting 12:31.697 --> 12:33.808 right here , you got up way earlier , 12:33.869 --> 12:36.036 someone sitting here and got up at two 12:36.036 --> 12:38.147 in the morning to be here on time and 12:38.147 --> 12:40.258 then you're going to work all day and 12:40.258 --> 12:42.258 then you're going to drive home and 12:42.258 --> 12:41.609 you're going to have very little rest 12:41.619 --> 12:43.452 and you're going to come back in 12:43.452 --> 12:45.619 tomorrow morning . Folks . All of that 12:45.619 --> 12:47.786 is part of your duty day . All of that 12:47.786 --> 12:49.841 is part of your fighter management . 12:49.841 --> 12:51.897 And I'm encouraging you to make sure 12:51.897 --> 12:51.710 you're paying attention to your fighter 12:51.719 --> 12:54.059 management , even as a crew member and 12:54.070 --> 12:57.030 E three and H H C who's working at 18 12:57.039 --> 12:59.150 20 hours and driving on the bluegrass 12:59.150 --> 13:01.150 parkway trying to get home and then 13:01.150 --> 13:02.150 falls asleep . 13:05.010 --> 13:07.700 It's no different . And an aircraft 13:07.710 --> 13:10.190 accident environment management is for 13:10.200 --> 13:12.609 all of us , aviation maintenance is 13:12.619 --> 13:15.419 critical to how we do things safely . A 13:15.429 --> 13:17.596 lot of maintainers sitting in here and 13:17.596 --> 13:19.651 a lot of people that are responsible 13:19.651 --> 13:21.873 for aviation maintenance first , let me 13:21.873 --> 13:21.710 praise you for the aviation sport 13:21.719 --> 13:24.539 facility and the regs that are working 13:24.549 --> 13:26.969 at . Unbelievable how you guys do 13:26.979 --> 13:30.080 business . Awesome . You have a great 13:30.090 --> 13:32.034 record . I'm proud of you and your 13:32.034 --> 13:34.257 aircraft are beautiful . Our aircraft , 13:34.257 --> 13:37.559 they're gorgeous , but everyone needs 13:37.570 --> 13:39.903 to be thinking about not missing a step , 13:41.030 --> 13:43.830 that lost tool , that lost rag , that 13:43.840 --> 13:46.118 thing that gets ingested in the engine , 13:46.118 --> 13:48.570 that piece of pod . So I just try to re 13:48.900 --> 13:50.956 energize your thought processes when 13:50.960 --> 13:53.238 you're doing your aviation maintenance . 13:53.238 --> 13:56.270 I'm gonna ask to tell me how he 13:56.280 --> 13:59.320 incorporates safety while doing 13:59.330 --> 14:03.219 maintenance on stuff 14:05.539 --> 14:06.950 control in C IC , 14:11.260 --> 14:12.927 the way , the main way that I 14:12.927 --> 14:15.789 incorporate , mean 14:18.309 --> 14:20.420 taking the time to slow down and also 14:20.420 --> 14:22.420 put the brakes on the maintainers , 14:23.020 --> 14:26.140 communicate with leaders in the men's 14:26.409 --> 14:29.599 world . Express concerns , 14:29.609 --> 14:32.849 express any type of aid 14:33.640 --> 14:35.807 we're getting close on duty today . So 14:36.039 --> 14:39.909 my role is A N C take one 14:40.739 --> 14:43.059 into ensuring that 14:46.770 --> 14:49.229 in the vehicles that are concerned . 14:50.429 --> 14:54.140 Yeah , following all the stuff that 14:54.150 --> 14:56.559 leads up to the actual maintenance task 14:56.570 --> 15:00.020 which make sure people aren't coming in . 15:00.869 --> 15:03.091 We're going to accept the maintenance . 15:03.091 --> 15:05.239 It is the only incumbent tasking 15:05.250 --> 15:07.510 process with all of us . It's not just 15:09.929 --> 15:13.239 as safe as it is when we're doing our 15:13.250 --> 15:15.139 flight operations . And right now 15:15.139 --> 15:17.306 you're involved in aerial gunnery that 15:17.306 --> 15:19.194 involves apart for foreign area , 15:19.194 --> 15:23.000 refueling points . Fuel is not 15:23.010 --> 15:26.210 inherently safe . Your equipment is big 15:26.219 --> 15:29.340 and heavy , not inherently safe and you 15:29.349 --> 15:31.349 have to do it in both day and night 15:31.349 --> 15:33.710 operations . First . I commend you for 15:33.719 --> 15:35.830 the professionalism and how you do it 15:35.830 --> 15:37.719 and how you pump safe gas into my 15:37.719 --> 15:39.789 aircraft . We trust you to do that . 15:40.250 --> 15:42.539 But I want everyone to be aware that 15:42.549 --> 15:44.438 our ground maintenance is just as 15:44.438 --> 15:46.549 important as our aviation maintenance 15:46.549 --> 15:48.605 when you're driving the truck , when 15:48.605 --> 15:50.660 you're pumping the gas , when you're 15:50.660 --> 15:52.827 maintaining our vehicles , when you're 15:52.827 --> 15:55.105 in the motor pool , do not cut corners , 15:55.105 --> 15:57.919 do not hide things . If the view is bad , 15:57.929 --> 16:01.210 then say it . If the operation needs 16:01.219 --> 16:04.169 more workers say it , if you need more 16:04.179 --> 16:07.020 water , you know , heat safety today is 16:07.030 --> 16:09.299 a nice cool day . But if you need more 16:09.309 --> 16:11.365 resources in order to do your ground 16:11.365 --> 16:13.698 operation safely , I want you to say it . 16:13.698 --> 16:15.920 Think about your soldiers , think about 16:15.920 --> 16:18.031 your fighter management . Think about 16:18.031 --> 16:20.142 how you're doing those operations and 16:20.142 --> 16:19.690 make sure that we're doing ground 16:19.700 --> 16:22.280 safety correctly and safely do that . 16:22.409 --> 16:24.849 For me . Tell us how you do the part of 16:24.859 --> 16:28.549 operations , all the farm operations 16:28.979 --> 16:31.559 to make sure all the birds fly good and 16:31.799 --> 16:35.500 keep our people safe every day . And 16:35.510 --> 16:37.677 when we come in and do our operation , 16:37.677 --> 16:39.621 we go through and do our PC on our 16:39.621 --> 16:42.460 drive . Obviously , the , 16:46.460 --> 16:48.400 we take all the units 16:50.469 --> 16:52.429 recirculate every day , make sure 16:52.440 --> 16:55.309 you're not getting any water in our 16:55.320 --> 16:58.679 tank fields . We doing a field test 16:59.330 --> 17:03.109 at the beach and then , um , we have 17:03.770 --> 17:06.349 the helicopters , we'll do , we'll have 17:06.359 --> 17:09.500 three people , men have one person , 17:09.839 --> 17:12.140 have a guard doing fireguard and having 17:13.130 --> 17:16.680 a few . Uh , we all set the time , but 17:16.780 --> 17:19.113 I just saw someone something bad happen . 17:20.359 --> 17:22.415 You encourage your soldiers to do it 17:22.415 --> 17:24.526 safely every day . Do you wear your P 17:24.526 --> 17:26.581 PE and can you stop PARKP operations 17:26.581 --> 17:29.170 without fear or some sort of Reprisal . 17:29.180 --> 17:31.402 Senior leaders are not going to get mad 17:31.402 --> 17:33.513 if you stop the park in order to make 17:33.513 --> 17:35.736 sure it's safe . Is that correct ? That 17:35.736 --> 17:37.958 is awesome . Thank you very much . This 17:37.958 --> 17:40.236 is not part of the stand down from the , 17:40.849 --> 17:42.182 its motorcycle safety . 17:44.859 --> 17:48.510 Nadia as the aviation is working on at 17:48.520 --> 17:50.687 their last three , just at a funeral . 17:51.859 --> 17:55.540 We're on a motorcycle first battalion . 17:55.550 --> 17:57.772 As a soldier is still in the hospital , 17:58.250 --> 18:01.839 we hope he keeps his way . Well , I'm 18:01.849 --> 18:04.016 adding motorcycle safety because it is 18:04.016 --> 18:06.016 the season . Right ? So if you're a 18:06.016 --> 18:08.349 rider , will you raise your hand for me ? 18:08.449 --> 18:12.140 Me too . I'm a writer . So the idea is , 18:12.589 --> 18:14.700 please make sure that you're doing it 18:14.700 --> 18:16.700 safely and you're wearing your P pe 18:16.700 --> 18:18.867 because in most , most of the cases of 18:18.867 --> 18:20.978 our soldiers guess whose fault it was 18:20.978 --> 18:24.229 not , was not the soldier . So now for 18:24.239 --> 18:26.572 those of you who didn't raise your hand , 18:26.572 --> 18:28.239 take that extra moment at the 18:28.239 --> 18:30.239 intersection before you pull out in 18:30.239 --> 18:32.439 summer time . Look for it , give that 18:32.449 --> 18:34.760 extra little pause when you're on post 18:34.770 --> 18:36.770 or off post , on post . It's easier 18:36.770 --> 18:38.937 because you're probably going 20 miles 18:38.937 --> 18:41.159 an hour . But when you're out and about 18:41.159 --> 18:40.920 and you're staring at your knees and 18:40.930 --> 18:43.041 you're texting while you eat your big 18:43.041 --> 18:46.130 Mac . Do that . Look for the 18:46.140 --> 18:48.770 motorcycles , give them some space , 18:48.780 --> 18:50.947 give them the ability to operate their 18:50.947 --> 18:52.947 motorcycle safely . Yes , there are 18:52.947 --> 18:55.169 some motorcycle drivers that apparently 18:55.169 --> 18:57.224 have a death wish just to avoid them 18:57.224 --> 18:59.336 all together . If you're one of those 18:59.336 --> 18:59.300 soldiers and you got to make your 18:59.310 --> 19:01.477 motorcycle be the fastest thing on the 19:01.477 --> 19:03.643 highway , maybe they will slow it down 19:03.643 --> 19:05.588 because you know what we need your 19:05.588 --> 19:07.643 riders to do . We need you riders to 19:07.643 --> 19:09.810 come back to the next next center . So 19:09.810 --> 19:12.032 I just want to encourage everyone for a 19:12.032 --> 19:11.510 moment . Just pause and think about 19:11.520 --> 19:13.576 your motorcycle safety . If you're a 19:13.576 --> 19:15.687 rider , please keep doing it safely . 19:15.687 --> 19:17.798 If you are a mentor and you see other 19:17.798 --> 19:19.909 soldiers help them do it safely . But 19:19.909 --> 19:21.687 if you're just a simple vehicle 19:21.687 --> 19:23.798 operator , look for those motorcycles 19:23.798 --> 19:25.687 and help us be safe on the road . 19:25.687 --> 19:28.459 Please , to the entire Army Reserve 19:28.469 --> 19:30.358 Aviation Command and our aviation 19:30.358 --> 19:32.580 support facilities , please continue to 19:32.580 --> 19:35.270 do things safely and do them 19:35.280 --> 19:37.579 deliberately . We want you to do tough 19:37.589 --> 19:40.150 realistic aviation and ground 19:40.160 --> 19:42.271 maintenance training . We want you to 19:42.271 --> 19:44.382 do it safely . We want everyone to be 19:44.382 --> 19:46.493 able to go home to their families . I 19:46.493 --> 19:49.569 hope you guys have a great gun , a 19:50.010 --> 19:52.479 great battle assembly . Please continue 19:52.489 --> 19:54.767 to train . I'm on my way to Fort Bragg . 19:54.767 --> 19:56.989 Hopefully to go get some more money and 19:56.989 --> 19:59.211 see how , how well I do my job . I know 19:59.211 --> 20:01.211 you're gonna do your job . Really , 20:01.211 --> 20:03.322 really well . So let's do it safely . 20:03.322 --> 20:05.433 You do that for me . All right , guys 20:05.433 --> 20:04.969 on your feet , 20:13.449 --> 20:17.180 go out . I'll tell you 20:17.949 --> 20:18.359 what 20:22.790 --> 20:22.910 that .
