so
well . Im in Tunisia have been
partnered for 16 years . The
partnership program allows states and
countries to maintain relationships and
access for the long term . And because
of that , we wound up developing
individual relationships and then unit
relationships that give us access to
the country and inability to train
across the tube platforms that we have
throughout the course of the year . So
for this c 1 30 you H 60 aviation
Familiarization event , we have 13
Tunisian Air Force who have been out in
Cheyenne , Wyoming , rotating around
the U . H 60 Mike helicopter and the C
1 30 Hercules airframes . Those events
are really a culmination of a Siri's
that were canceled due Toa Cove in 19
restrictions through the course of the
summer . So we have you age 60 and
someone 30 Maintenance , focusing on
some aerial tactics , including aerial
firefighting , search and rescue and
domestic operations . And then we also
have some doctors who are here who have
been able to focus on pandemic response ,
including our state lab , the VA
hospital and some of our regional Covic
response teams that have been employed
across Wyoming and Colorado . So all of
our events are mutually beneficial . We
make sure that way , have subject
matter experts from Wyoming and Tunisia .
And when we work side by side and we
find that both , uh , agencies improved
in behalf off Tunisian Air Force on my
team , I want Toa Thank
Wyoming , uh , National Guard
leadership on the whole team for their
hospitality on the wealth off shared
experience . During our stay , we had a
rich program including many
academic courses concerning maths ,
tactical operation , aeromedical
evacuation , uh , using C 1 30
or you H 60 Black Hawk helicopter
on the Seabourn Overview State
Partnership Program , which is a good
opportunity toe . Enhance sharing
experience between both sides ,
especially right now during Cove it
when we see that our own ability to
maintain relationships in contact with
our families , friends and neighbors is
strained . We also find that our
international partnerships are strained
as well , and it just makes it that
much more important that we in Wyoming
are fortunate to conduct this type of
an event with our international
partners here in Cheyenne and maintain
these enduring relationships that have
lasted so long with hopes that they
will continue to be great partners for
years and years to come .
