WEBVTT 00:08.609 --> 00:10.665 Greetings , happy August and welcome 00:10.665 --> 00:12.960 back to Otis for our annual end of 00:12.970 --> 00:15.619 summer drill weekend . I hope everyone 00:15.630 --> 00:17.741 has been able to rest a bit and enjoy 00:17.741 --> 00:20.180 the summer . My comments today are 00:20.190 --> 00:23.049 going to focus on our September AC C 00:23.059 --> 00:25.090 mid point inspection which is fast 00:25.100 --> 00:28.229 approaching . And yes , I recognize 00:28.239 --> 00:30.239 that we've had numerous inspections 00:30.239 --> 00:32.319 over the past few months . This one 00:32.330 --> 00:34.130 however , is part of our normal 00:34.139 --> 00:37.299 inspection cycle and it's designed to 00:37.310 --> 00:40.189 assess our readiness posture for both 00:40.369 --> 00:42.270 our support to home station ISR 00:42.279 --> 00:45.669 missions and our deployable U CS . This 00:45.680 --> 00:47.736 will actually be the first time that 00:47.736 --> 00:49.569 these readiness postures will be 00:49.569 --> 00:52.849 inspected simultaneously . So it's 00:52.860 --> 00:54.939 important that we all spend this 00:54.950 --> 00:57.117 weekend understanding our roles in the 00:57.117 --> 00:58.970 inspection and finalizing our 00:58.979 --> 01:02.650 preparation for it . Here's a general 01:02.659 --> 01:04.770 overview of the events that will take 01:04.770 --> 01:06.881 place as part of the inspection . The 01:06.881 --> 01:08.715 exercise will begin with a large 01:08.715 --> 01:10.937 contingent of wing members deploying to 01:10.937 --> 01:13.103 tactical training base . Kelly located 01:13.103 --> 01:16.220 right here on J BC C . These airmen who 01:16.230 --> 01:18.480 have already been identified and are 01:18.489 --> 01:20.545 primarily from our support functions 01:20.545 --> 01:22.879 will demonstrate to the AC C inspection 01:22.889 --> 01:25.010 team , their ability to function and 01:25.019 --> 01:28.050 perform their job under stressed and 01:28.059 --> 01:30.580 degraded conditions similar to what 01:30.589 --> 01:32.311 they may experience at a fob . 01:32.790 --> 01:35.250 Meanwhile , here at Otis , we will be 01:35.260 --> 01:37.699 challenged to support our home station 01:37.709 --> 01:39.889 intel missions that will be surging to 01:39.900 --> 01:42.150 support exercise events absent the 01:42.160 --> 01:43.938 support of the airmen that have 01:43.938 --> 01:46.199 deployed to T TB Kelly . So it's an 01:46.209 --> 01:48.431 interesting challenge . The typical air 01:48.440 --> 01:50.440 force model with the fly in mission 01:50.440 --> 01:52.607 would have the mission and the support 01:52.607 --> 01:54.829 functions deployed together here at the 01:54.829 --> 01:56.940 102nd , we need to be able to support 01:56.940 --> 01:58.919 our home station mission and our 01:58.930 --> 02:01.860 deployment requirements all at the same 02:01.870 --> 02:04.110 time . So that's the overview and 02:04.120 --> 02:07.550 that's the challenge with that . I ask 02:07.680 --> 02:10.059 that every wing member be aware that 02:10.070 --> 02:12.403 everybody has a role in this inspection , 02:12.820 --> 02:14.876 whether you're a deploy or providing 02:14.876 --> 02:16.764 home station support to our intel 02:16.764 --> 02:18.931 missions or you're an intel operator , 02:19.160 --> 02:21.382 you should have an understanding of the 02:21.382 --> 02:23.104 intent and the purpose of this 02:23.104 --> 02:25.500 inspection and be aware that you could 02:25.509 --> 02:27.809 be directly involved in an exercise 02:27.820 --> 02:30.250 inject or scenario , something that 02:30.259 --> 02:33.149 you'll be expected to respond to . So 02:33.160 --> 02:35.729 we all just need to be a little extra 02:35.740 --> 02:38.910 vigilant and aware of what is happening 02:38.919 --> 02:41.550 around us and on top of our game and 02:41.559 --> 02:43.670 once again , we will show yet another 02:43.670 --> 02:45.615 inspection team how impressive and 02:45.615 --> 02:48.389 professional the 102nd team is , have a 02:48.399 --> 02:48.899 good drill .
