WEBVTT 00:00.009 --> 00:02.231 So far , we've heard a lot about uh how 00:02.231 --> 00:04.440 H two F human performance teams are 00:04.449 --> 00:06.560 working within their resource brigade 00:06.560 --> 00:08.505 for this next presentation . We're 00:08.505 --> 00:10.727 gonna switch it up a little bit . We're 00:10.727 --> 00:12.949 gonna hear from two individuals who are 00:12.949 --> 00:15.060 making H two F happen . But our nonso 00:15.060 --> 00:17.227 brigades , our first presenter of this 00:17.227 --> 00:19.250 section will be Jared Renner . He's 00:19.260 --> 00:21.204 currently the program director for 00:21.204 --> 00:23.260 First Cab uh first infantry division 00:23.260 --> 00:25.316 down at Fort Riley before he was the 00:25.316 --> 00:27.482 director . He was a strength coach and 00:27.482 --> 00:29.704 they used to have pilot up at Fort Drum 00:29.704 --> 00:31.760 and then also moved to uh Fort Riley 00:31.760 --> 00:34.130 with the 97th MP S and also their 00:34.139 --> 00:37.959 second uh brigade Sergeant 00:37.970 --> 00:40.319 Spencer Posey who's in the room with us 00:40.330 --> 00:42.497 is currently stationed uh with the old 00:42.497 --> 00:44.608 guard , their infantry regiment . His 00:44.608 --> 00:46.830 unit is a completely nonso brigade with 00:46.830 --> 00:49.349 no HPT intact . So Sergeant Posey has 00:49.360 --> 00:51.549 been charged to basically generate H 00:51.560 --> 00:54.029 two F results within his unit uh using 00:54.040 --> 00:56.207 resources that you'll hear about today 00:56.207 --> 00:58.373 that are basically at his fingertips . 00:58.373 --> 01:00.707 So , good afternoon , gentlemen , Jared , 01:00.707 --> 01:02.929 we're gonna go ahead and start off with 01:02.929 --> 01:05.096 you . Awesome . Thank you . He said my 01:05.096 --> 01:07.096 name is Jared Reer I am the program 01:07.096 --> 01:09.262 director down here for the cab at Fort 01:09.262 --> 01:12.230 Riley . And next slide , please . And 01:12.239 --> 01:14.017 we will go ahead and talk about 01:14.017 --> 01:16.072 building an H two F team in an under 01:16.072 --> 01:18.295 resource unit and kind of what all that 01:18.295 --> 01:21.730 means . So next slide , please , what 01:21.739 --> 01:23.906 we're gonna talk about is what we mean 01:23.906 --> 01:26.319 by minimally resourced . What our 01:26.330 --> 01:28.163 contractors with their roles and 01:28.163 --> 01:30.529 responsibilities are kind of how we use 01:30.540 --> 01:33.730 things as a division and as a brigade 01:33.739 --> 01:35.628 that I was attached to how it all 01:35.628 --> 01:37.795 worked our strategy moving forward and 01:37.795 --> 01:37.739 then summarize all it together . So , 01:37.750 --> 01:40.970 next slide , please . So what do I mean 01:40.980 --> 01:44.330 by minimally resourced for us , the 01:44.489 --> 01:47.410 army providers are all the same . We 01:47.419 --> 01:49.308 have our physical therapist , our 01:49.308 --> 01:51.586 occupational therapist , our dietician , 01:51.586 --> 01:53.697 their enlisted counterparts where our 01:53.697 --> 01:55.697 big differences come in is we don't 01:55.697 --> 01:58.900 have our or we didn't have our civilian 01:59.319 --> 02:01.650 um counterparts or civilian providers 02:01.879 --> 02:04.680 or the 21 contractors per brigade . 02:05.389 --> 02:07.445 What happened here at Fort Riley ? A 02:07.445 --> 02:09.500 little bit of history was Fort Riley 02:09.500 --> 02:12.910 was one of the uh bases that had part 02:12.919 --> 02:15.649 of the pilot program from 2018 through 02:15.660 --> 02:18.779 21 . In 21 . We found out that Fort 02:18.789 --> 02:21.539 Riley was gonna have a delay between um 02:21.550 --> 02:24.059 being outfitted from the pilot program 02:24.070 --> 02:26.292 to the full roll out . So what happened 02:26.292 --> 02:29.779 was uh Major Grant Smith when had took 02:29.789 --> 02:32.130 the initiative and wrote up some local 02:32.139 --> 02:35.360 contracts to have a small number of 02:35.369 --> 02:37.425 strength coaches , a small number of 02:37.425 --> 02:39.591 athletic trainers here at the division 02:40.190 --> 02:42.460 ready to go to kind of bridge that gap 02:42.470 --> 02:44.692 now that our program directors are on , 02:44.692 --> 02:46.914 are on ground and coming on ground . Um 02:46.914 --> 02:48.859 We still have those resources here 02:48.859 --> 02:50.880 available to us . So like I said , 02:51.429 --> 02:53.839 instead of having the 21 contractors 02:53.850 --> 02:56.460 per , per gate , what we have are two , 02:56.470 --> 02:59.100 we have uh four coaches , one per 02:59.110 --> 03:01.054 brigade and same with our athletic 03:01.054 --> 03:03.460 trainers . Um again , one per brigade 03:03.619 --> 03:05.730 and they all support as needed . Um , 03:05.730 --> 03:07.730 to give a little bit of context for 03:07.730 --> 03:09.675 that . Uh Second brigade here , we 03:09.675 --> 03:11.600 worked as a team of just three 03:11.610 --> 03:13.777 providers and two contractors for well 03:13.777 --> 03:15.910 over a year and many of our other 03:15.919 --> 03:18.197 brigades here did as well . Next slide , 03:18.197 --> 03:22.050 please . So the way we like 03:22.059 --> 03:24.281 to , the way we kind of approach , this 03:24.281 --> 03:26.630 was letting our contractors lean into 03:26.679 --> 03:28.623 some of the issues and some of the 03:28.623 --> 03:30.957 challenges that the brigades are facing . 03:30.957 --> 03:32.957 Uh , we operate very similar to the 03:32.957 --> 03:36.229 larger fully resource brigades there 03:36.240 --> 03:38.407 and those fully resourced teams , it's 03:38.407 --> 03:40.830 just on a different level . So very 03:40.839 --> 03:44.240 similarly , um co the coaches are going 03:44.250 --> 03:46.361 or leading morning PT and still are . 03:46.410 --> 03:48.440 Um , they design and disperse PT 03:48.449 --> 03:51.369 programs for the units as needed and 03:51.630 --> 03:53.779 like uh the units have already talked 03:53.789 --> 03:56.520 about , we design and execute those 03:56.529 --> 03:59.479 extender courses where we focus a 03:59.490 --> 04:01.268 little bit differently on those 04:01.268 --> 04:03.589 extender courses is as only one coach 04:03.600 --> 04:06.039 for the brigade . That was our main 04:06.050 --> 04:08.600 focus , getting , getting soldiers in 04:08.610 --> 04:10.666 and through those extended courses . 04:10.666 --> 04:12.777 For us , it was called UFT class unit 04:12.777 --> 04:14.666 fitness trainer . And each of the 04:14.666 --> 04:16.610 brigades had put their own spin on 04:16.610 --> 04:18.777 those courses . But all based off of a 04:18.777 --> 04:20.888 similar design to make minor versions 04:20.888 --> 04:23.679 of the coaches out there to implement 04:23.690 --> 04:25.929 those coach design and oriented 04:25.940 --> 04:28.829 programs where those coaches are a 04:28.839 --> 04:32.250 little bit more unique were one 04:32.260 --> 04:34.850 coach programming across multiple 04:34.859 --> 04:36.970 batons or across the entire brigade . 04:36.989 --> 04:39.850 What I did specifically was I had a 04:39.859 --> 04:42.510 handful of products and a handful of 04:42.519 --> 04:44.980 programs that I had typed up ahead of 04:44.989 --> 04:48.450 time , put on the brigade SharePoint 04:48.459 --> 04:50.570 ready for those units to just kind of 04:50.570 --> 04:53.369 grab as they needed where we would 04:53.380 --> 04:55.829 specialize a little bit is as units 04:55.839 --> 04:57.895 would reach out to us and we'll talk 04:57.895 --> 04:59.950 about this more a little bit later , 04:59.950 --> 05:02.172 but as units would reach out , we would 05:02.172 --> 05:04.117 talk about some of those presigned 05:04.117 --> 05:06.549 plans and we could tweak and implement 05:06.559 --> 05:08.448 those as those as the unit needed 05:08.448 --> 05:10.890 towards their specific needs . And then 05:10.899 --> 05:13.010 it would also change the name to it . 05:13.010 --> 05:15.121 And now all of a sudden that unit has 05:15.121 --> 05:17.343 their special program , um designs made 05:17.343 --> 05:19.399 for them . And then another thing is 05:19.399 --> 05:21.399 having only one coach per brigade , 05:21.429 --> 05:23.750 we'd also support across the across the 05:23.760 --> 05:25.829 division , two other assets . So if 05:26.160 --> 05:28.450 coach at Second brigade or sustainment , 05:28.459 --> 05:30.681 if they had another or at first brigade 05:30.681 --> 05:32.626 or sustainment , had another event 05:32.626 --> 05:34.737 going on that really needed more than 05:34.737 --> 05:36.848 one hand or one , more than more than 05:36.848 --> 05:38.848 one set of coaching eyes there . We 05:38.848 --> 05:40.959 would very easily just slide over and 05:40.959 --> 05:42.903 help them out . Another thing that 05:42.903 --> 05:45.015 we're also able to do to a little bit 05:45.015 --> 05:47.070 lesser extent more as kind of , it's 05:47.070 --> 05:49.181 our availability um helping those non 05:49.181 --> 05:51.403 brigade resources like the MP S or Devy 05:51.403 --> 05:53.403 as well for our athletic trainers . 05:53.403 --> 05:55.570 Very similarly to the big teams , they 05:55.570 --> 05:57.792 assist in MS K sit call , they're gonna 05:57.792 --> 05:59.959 assist in treatment and rehab of those 05:59.959 --> 06:02.015 MS K injuries . However , where it's 06:02.015 --> 06:04.015 gonna be a little bit different for 06:04.015 --> 06:06.700 them is those A TS are also designing 06:06.709 --> 06:08.709 and implementing their own extender 06:08.709 --> 06:11.649 courses . They have NC OS come to come 06:11.660 --> 06:13.771 to classes , usually at the battalion 06:13.771 --> 06:15.771 level , come to courses for what we 06:15.771 --> 06:17.938 call reconditioning program leaders or 06:17.938 --> 06:21.519 RPL course , they have NC OS 06:22.149 --> 06:24.709 attending these courses , learning how 06:24.720 --> 06:27.230 to progress and arrest exercises around 06:27.239 --> 06:29.760 those individual , profiled soldierss 06:30.040 --> 06:32.429 around their limitations . So that way 06:32.440 --> 06:34.470 we're not having soldiers take the 06:34.480 --> 06:38.160 classic approach to PT uh or profile pt 06:38.230 --> 06:40.452 of just like we've already talked about 06:40.579 --> 06:42.635 um in previous presentations of just 06:42.635 --> 06:44.523 walking around the parking lot in 06:44.523 --> 06:47.059 circles . And then similarly , if other 06:47.070 --> 06:50.660 A TS are um having events or a lot of 06:50.670 --> 06:52.781 time , if there is our division level 06:52.781 --> 06:54.892 sporting events going on , those A TS 06:54.892 --> 06:57.589 are there to assist that as well . Next 06:57.600 --> 07:00.910 slide , please . So at second brigade . 07:00.920 --> 07:03.350 We took um kind of a marketing and 07:03.359 --> 07:05.589 sales approach to all of this . We had 07:05.600 --> 07:07.989 three main tiers to our marketing . 07:08.570 --> 07:11.309 First of that was our team leader . So 07:11.320 --> 07:13.869 our senior uh medical provider on there 07:13.929 --> 07:15.762 for us was Major Mike Bell , our 07:15.762 --> 07:18.239 physical therapist , he would attend 07:18.250 --> 07:21.529 brigade level meetings to give us 07:21.540 --> 07:23.651 pertinent information of what's going 07:23.651 --> 07:25.596 on in the brigade and also put out 07:25.596 --> 07:27.651 pertinent information to the brigade 07:27.651 --> 07:29.429 for classes we were running and 07:29.429 --> 07:31.484 resources , we were able to uh serve 07:31.484 --> 07:33.869 for the brigade . He would also invite 07:33.880 --> 07:36.102 us to battalion level meetings . So for 07:36.102 --> 07:38.269 those battalion level meetings , for a 07:38.269 --> 07:40.436 lot of us , it was just kind of a meet 07:40.436 --> 07:40.420 and greet at the beginning of the 07:40.429 --> 07:42.779 meeting , putting names with faces and 07:42.790 --> 07:45.079 letting those battalion leaders know 07:45.089 --> 07:47.600 what services we could offer as an H 07:47.609 --> 07:49.609 two F team and then giving them the 07:49.609 --> 07:51.739 contact information uh from that 07:54.190 --> 07:57.059 in the provider roles . One of our most 07:57.070 --> 08:00.339 effective forms of , I guess for us 08:00.350 --> 08:02.779 getting , getting customers was 08:02.799 --> 08:04.799 allowing those providers to do what 08:04.799 --> 08:06.799 they called uh executive medicine . 08:06.820 --> 08:10.179 Having those for us a lot , a lot of it 08:10.190 --> 08:12.301 was from our physical therapist , but 08:12.301 --> 08:14.412 having that physical therapist in off 08:14.412 --> 08:16.412 hours provide those battalion level 08:16.412 --> 08:18.246 leaders , those company uh level 08:18.246 --> 08:20.579 leaders whose schedule doesn't always 08:20.589 --> 08:22.700 allow for them to come in during 08:22.709 --> 08:25.910 regular clinic hours , giving them that 08:25.920 --> 08:28.269 care outside of those clinic hours , 08:28.279 --> 08:30.390 they're getting special attention and 08:30.390 --> 08:32.580 they're also getting one on one time 08:32.590 --> 08:35.169 with that H two F provider to make sure 08:35.179 --> 08:37.320 that for us , the HP , that provider 08:37.330 --> 08:39.789 now has a captive audience to sing all 08:39.799 --> 08:41.799 the praises of H two F and what our 08:41.799 --> 08:44.539 capabilities are when it comes to the 08:44.549 --> 08:47.020 junior level leaders , letting those 08:47.030 --> 08:49.340 providers again talk about everything H 08:49.349 --> 08:51.516 two F can offer and getting those uh , 08:51.516 --> 08:54.340 junior soldiers excited about this new 08:54.349 --> 08:58.080 product that or this new approach that 08:58.190 --> 09:00.079 the army is giving them . It's no 09:00.079 --> 09:02.859 longer the classic five days of three 09:02.869 --> 09:04.925 days of running , two days of muscle 09:04.925 --> 09:06.536 failure . We now have a more 09:06.536 --> 09:08.702 specialized approach , a more targeted 09:08.702 --> 09:10.591 approach to PT around specific um 09:10.591 --> 09:12.647 training events and whatnot to allow 09:12.647 --> 09:14.869 those soldiers to thrive and especially 09:14.869 --> 09:14.640 for those soldiers that they're already 09:14.650 --> 09:17.200 seeking care . It is not walking around 09:17.210 --> 09:19.377 the parking lot anymore . They have PT 09:20.020 --> 09:23.359 reconditioning PT designed to help them 09:23.380 --> 09:25.547 uh improve and get better around their 09:25.547 --> 09:28.359 limitations for the contractors . Um 09:28.369 --> 09:30.950 Similarly to what uh some of the other 09:30.960 --> 09:33.182 presentations have already talked about 09:33.182 --> 09:35.349 getting those contractors out , having 09:35.349 --> 09:37.293 them be seen and be helpful in the 09:37.293 --> 09:39.404 battalion , so be seen having coaches 09:39.404 --> 09:41.460 be their leading PT when available , 09:41.739 --> 09:43.961 being part of that unit as much as they 09:43.961 --> 09:47.169 can be within uh the scope of having 09:47.179 --> 09:49.409 one coach per for an entire brigade . 09:49.690 --> 09:51.801 But having those coaches and athletic 09:51.801 --> 09:54.150 trainers be as much of the footprint as 09:54.159 --> 09:56.530 they can . And then that way that's 09:56.539 --> 09:59.859 helping to again , mark market our 09:59.869 --> 10:02.200 abilities when , when that civilian in 10:02.210 --> 10:04.099 the formation is gonna generate a 10:04.099 --> 10:07.369 little bit of questions . So what did 10:07.380 --> 10:09.436 we get from our marketing data ? The 10:09.436 --> 10:11.619 two basic takeaways are gonna be who's 10:11.630 --> 10:14.070 interested in H two F and who wasn't 10:15.219 --> 10:17.630 for us ? Our biggest takeaway . Our 10:17.640 --> 10:20.200 biggest customers were people who were 10:20.210 --> 10:22.719 from previously resource H two F units . 10:24.289 --> 10:26.400 They're coming from an , an HF UNIT . 10:26.450 --> 10:28.561 They would come to Fort Riley and now 10:28.561 --> 10:30.510 they are looking for those same 10:30.520 --> 10:32.576 resources . How do we get those same 10:32.576 --> 10:34.576 things that I had back where I came 10:34.576 --> 10:38.359 from . The next group were or are 10:39.130 --> 10:41.390 usually leaders who are coming from an 10:41.400 --> 10:43.178 athletic background or they pay 10:43.178 --> 10:45.344 attention to sports or athletes . They 10:45.344 --> 10:47.456 have uh Children who are in athletics 10:47.456 --> 10:50.299 and they understand that high level 10:50.440 --> 10:52.384 collegiate athletes , professional 10:52.384 --> 10:54.880 athletes have access to these types of 10:54.890 --> 10:57.770 resources . And so they want those same 10:57.780 --> 11:00.250 resources available to their soldiers 11:00.260 --> 11:02.427 for the same reasons . They want those 11:02.427 --> 11:04.260 soldiers to stay in the training 11:04.280 --> 11:06.530 sessions longer be , have fewer 11:06.539 --> 11:08.760 injuries and be able to do their job 11:08.770 --> 11:11.359 more effectively . And the last group , 11:11.530 --> 11:15.349 um also a very large group are people 11:15.359 --> 11:17.415 who are just welcome to the change . 11:18.020 --> 11:20.131 They may be more senior in their army 11:20.131 --> 11:23.640 career . They have a list of bumps and 11:23.650 --> 11:26.760 bruises and injuries that they , that , 11:26.770 --> 11:29.780 that they required in their time and 11:29.789 --> 11:32.479 they see these resources as a way for 11:32.489 --> 11:34.322 some of their junior soldiers to 11:34.322 --> 11:36.433 possibly avoid the number of injuries 11:36.433 --> 11:38.640 or some of the severity of bumps and 11:38.650 --> 11:40.761 bruises and aches and pains that they 11:40.761 --> 11:44.239 may that they've already acquired . Now 11:44.250 --> 11:46.659 who wasn't interested , um People for 11:46.669 --> 11:49.460 whatever reason , heard , heard bad 11:49.469 --> 11:51.358 things about H Two F or they have 11:51.358 --> 11:53.525 preconceived notions that H two F just 11:53.525 --> 11:55.747 has a bad reputation in their mind . It 11:55.747 --> 11:57.802 happens , we do our best to overcome 11:57.802 --> 12:00.136 that . But when , for us , as a team of , 12:00.136 --> 12:02.358 like I said , for , as a team of five , 12:02.358 --> 12:04.413 we were not gonna wait , spend extra 12:04.413 --> 12:06.358 time on those individuals who just 12:06.358 --> 12:08.539 weren't interested . Um The next group 12:08.549 --> 12:11.479 were so were leaders who 12:12.280 --> 12:14.502 kind of in that same group , maybe they 12:14.502 --> 12:16.724 just , they aren't interested . But the 12:16.724 --> 12:18.724 training calendar didn't , training 12:18.724 --> 12:20.780 calendar doesn't have a lot of white 12:20.780 --> 12:22.947 space available for H two F and that's 12:22.947 --> 12:25.869 completely , completely legitimate for 12:25.880 --> 12:28.549 us at Second Brigade for 2022 there 12:28.559 --> 12:31.799 were two NTC rotations and a Yukon 12:32.039 --> 12:35.030 rotation . So just for those of you who 12:35.039 --> 12:37.330 understand everything that entails , 12:37.460 --> 12:39.679 that's not a lot of space for H two F 12:39.690 --> 12:41.801 to happen in between the , in between 12:41.919 --> 12:44.030 prepping and coming home for from all 12:44.030 --> 12:47.450 of that . And then lastly is kind of 12:47.460 --> 12:49.627 the opposite of the group who welcomed 12:49.627 --> 12:52.159 the change . Those leaders who have 12:52.320 --> 12:54.719 succeeded without the presence of H two 12:54.729 --> 12:57.609 F and they feel that their soldiers are 12:57.619 --> 13:00.309 best served to experience that same 13:00.320 --> 13:03.320 thing . Um Again , we do our best to 13:03.330 --> 13:06.059 overcome that but usually if they're 13:06.070 --> 13:07.959 not welcome to it , we again , we 13:07.959 --> 13:10.181 weren't gonna spend a whole lot of time 13:10.181 --> 13:12.403 in trying to convince them next slide , 13:12.403 --> 13:15.750 please . So how do we use that data for 13:15.760 --> 13:18.390 us ? It helped build team efficiency . 13:18.400 --> 13:20.622 First of all , again , we know who your 13:20.622 --> 13:22.678 customers are and who your customers 13:22.678 --> 13:24.844 aren't . You can focus on those people 13:24.844 --> 13:26.900 who want your services . So , like I 13:26.900 --> 13:29.067 said , we're spending less time on the 13:29.067 --> 13:31.289 units who weren't ready for what we had 13:31.289 --> 13:34.820 to offer . It lets us focus um more 13:34.830 --> 13:37.460 attention on those units . We usually 13:37.469 --> 13:39.691 kind of one at a time because as a team 13:39.691 --> 13:42.440 of of 5 to 8 , we don't , we can't 13:42.450 --> 13:44.672 really spread across the entire brigade 13:44.672 --> 13:46.869 effectively . And then as we're 13:46.880 --> 13:49.940 spending time with , with that platoon 13:49.950 --> 13:52.169 company battalion , whatever it was , 13:52.500 --> 13:54.278 it just just gives us increased 13:54.278 --> 13:56.333 effectiveness with them and we spend 13:56.333 --> 13:58.556 less time spin spinning our wheels . Um 13:58.556 --> 14:00.667 even with elements inside of the same 14:00.667 --> 14:02.778 battalion that may not be ready be as 14:02.778 --> 14:05.260 uh ready for the products , we can 14:05.270 --> 14:08.349 focus on those companies who are with 14:08.359 --> 14:10.859 that increased efficiency . It let us 14:10.869 --> 14:13.169 give those companies a more targeted 14:13.179 --> 14:15.068 product for what they're for what 14:15.068 --> 14:16.901 they're asking for . So as those 14:16.901 --> 14:19.059 leaders , as those customers are , we 14:19.070 --> 14:21.070 talk with them and they say , hey , 14:21.070 --> 14:23.126 here's what we want . Here's what we 14:23.126 --> 14:25.181 need . It may only include initially 14:25.181 --> 14:27.237 one or two specialties or one or two 14:27.237 --> 14:29.669 members of the team . Let's say it was 14:29.679 --> 14:33.619 ABC P and Sleep for 14:34.270 --> 14:36.381 a company commander . Those are their 14:36.381 --> 14:38.979 two biggest issues at the moment . Then 14:38.989 --> 14:41.211 in that case , our ot and our dietician 14:41.211 --> 14:43.433 would be the ones to go talk to him . A 14:43.433 --> 14:46.669 coach may tag along to input a thing , 14:46.679 --> 14:49.979 a couple nuggets here and there . But 14:50.489 --> 14:53.570 it lets us really focus on what that 14:53.580 --> 14:56.489 company needed at that time and then 14:56.500 --> 14:58.719 move forward from there . I said our 14:58.729 --> 15:00.785 entire team can narrow the scope for 15:00.785 --> 15:02.951 what they need . Once leadership would 15:02.951 --> 15:05.049 see value in that we've helped them 15:05.059 --> 15:07.337 correct and solve some of those issues , 15:07.337 --> 15:09.392 they're probably gonna come back and 15:09.392 --> 15:11.448 ask us for a little bit more later . 15:11.448 --> 15:11.159 We've taken those big issues off the 15:11.169 --> 15:13.520 table . Now , they can see what H two F 15:13.530 --> 15:15.586 can do to help some of those smaller 15:15.586 --> 15:17.641 issues as well . And the other thing 15:17.650 --> 15:19.760 with that targeted product , if a 15:19.770 --> 15:21.992 leader is seeing value in that , if its 15:21.992 --> 15:24.214 a leader is putting emphasis on those , 15:24.219 --> 15:26.440 their soldier is probably going to see 15:26.450 --> 15:28.617 some of that value and be a little bit 15:28.617 --> 15:31.130 more inclined to pay attention in those 15:31.140 --> 15:33.380 presentations in those classes . Now , 15:33.390 --> 15:35.909 that's not true across the board , but 15:36.830 --> 15:38.997 for those soldiers who are invested in 15:38.997 --> 15:41.309 what their leadership is interested in , 15:41.719 --> 15:43.941 they're gonna get , they're gonna get a 15:43.941 --> 15:46.052 little bit more out of the product as 15:46.052 --> 15:48.275 well . And this also helps with growing 15:48.275 --> 15:50.386 the program as well . Right . Success 15:50.386 --> 15:52.552 is contagious whether it's in the same 15:52.552 --> 15:54.608 battalion . You have companies start 15:54.608 --> 15:56.552 doing well , other companies wanna 15:56.552 --> 16:00.169 perform well . Also leaders also 16:00.179 --> 16:02.489 want kind of that shiny new thing , 16:02.500 --> 16:04.722 right ? As a coach and my voice carries 16:04.722 --> 16:07.239 quite a bit , having that coach bark 16:07.250 --> 16:10.520 out reps during , during PT that 16:10.530 --> 16:12.530 attracts attention . You wonder why 16:12.530 --> 16:15.219 this bearded person is , is uh leading 16:15.229 --> 16:17.619 PT for soldiers that generates 16:17.630 --> 16:19.741 conversations . You hopefully more be 16:19.741 --> 16:22.650 more good than bad , but that generates 16:22.659 --> 16:25.520 talking points . Leaders see that they 16:25.530 --> 16:27.697 want that for their soldiers as well . 16:28.840 --> 16:31.070 With success is contagious . Leaders 16:31.080 --> 16:34.099 don't like taking second place if a 16:34.109 --> 16:36.780 company had been performing best in the 16:36.789 --> 16:40.340 battalion at , at uh ABC or at 16:40.739 --> 16:43.080 AC FTS . Now , all of a sudden they 16:43.090 --> 16:45.539 aren't because this other company who 16:45.549 --> 16:47.771 had been in second place is using H two 16:47.771 --> 16:50.580 F . Now all of a sudden that company 16:50.590 --> 16:52.690 who is newly in second place and no 16:52.700 --> 16:54.811 longer in first place , they're gonna 16:54.811 --> 16:56.867 want to get back on top . So again , 16:56.867 --> 16:59.033 letting success is contagious . Having 16:59.033 --> 17:02.940 those leaders reach out again and 17:02.950 --> 17:05.709 then lastly building on all of these , 17:07.199 --> 17:09.255 there is more than one time we would 17:09.255 --> 17:11.560 interact with leaders who were not 17:11.569 --> 17:14.030 interested in our initial reach out and 17:14.040 --> 17:16.569 marketing phase that they've seen the 17:16.579 --> 17:19.030 pro the program from afar . Now we're 17:19.040 --> 17:21.207 welcoming them back in when they reach 17:21.207 --> 17:23.373 out to us . And it may be something as 17:23.373 --> 17:25.707 simple as , hey coach , can you send me , 17:25.707 --> 17:27.880 can you send me a PT plan or talking 17:27.890 --> 17:30.223 with the dietitian . Hey , can you give , 17:30.223 --> 17:32.390 can you give our our guys a class ? It 17:32.390 --> 17:34.557 can be something that simple that just 17:34.557 --> 17:36.668 opens the door for the entire team to 17:36.668 --> 17:39.410 come in and assist . Later . Next slide , 17:39.420 --> 17:43.349 please . So using all this 17:43.359 --> 17:45.510 setting the table , the goal of our 17:45.520 --> 17:48.089 small team is first and foremost 17:48.099 --> 17:51.619 serving whatever size unit that was , 17:52.119 --> 17:54.329 that was talking with us as best as 17:54.339 --> 17:56.489 possible . We give them the best 17:56.500 --> 17:58.500 service possible , help them be the 17:58.500 --> 18:00.611 best unit they can be to help lay the 18:00.611 --> 18:03.260 groundwork for the larger h to roll out . 18:03.849 --> 18:06.150 Like I said from September of 21 18:06.160 --> 18:08.382 through now , we are still operating on 18:08.382 --> 18:10.469 those small teams and the program 18:10.479 --> 18:12.646 directors are just starting to come on 18:12.646 --> 18:14.709 board . So having , having those 18:14.969 --> 18:17.089 contractors in place to still 18:17.949 --> 18:20.569 facilitate the programs that they are 18:20.579 --> 18:22.670 is a big help rather than having to 18:22.680 --> 18:24.680 wait for our contractors to come in 18:24.680 --> 18:27.619 whenever that happens next year , it's 18:27.630 --> 18:30.500 also gonna ease the transition for the 18:30.510 --> 18:32.630 new providers that will be coming in 18:32.670 --> 18:34.689 both Army and Sedan 18:37.500 --> 18:39.689 for those teams . If you do outfit 18:39.699 --> 18:42.670 teams on this , on the smaller level , 18:43.380 --> 18:45.640 keep in mind both kind of combine these 18:45.650 --> 18:47.609 last two of small victories and 18:47.619 --> 18:50.369 exploitation management coming in , 18:50.380 --> 18:52.436 coming into these roles as a brigade 18:52.436 --> 18:54.769 lead as the division lead coach as well . 18:55.349 --> 18:57.469 We want to effect change across the 18:57.479 --> 18:59.520 entire brigade as quickly and 18:59.530 --> 19:02.589 effectively as possible as a team of 19:02.599 --> 19:05.290 five that is just more challenging to 19:05.300 --> 19:08.719 do than a team of 35 . So in when 19:08.729 --> 19:10.896 you're in those teams , working with a 19:10.896 --> 19:12.729 single squad or working with the 19:12.729 --> 19:14.729 platoon or working with a company , 19:14.729 --> 19:16.673 realize you were an improving that 19:16.673 --> 19:18.840 company and that will grow , that will 19:18.840 --> 19:21.007 set the table , so to speak , for that 19:21.007 --> 19:23.109 bigger team to roll out because they 19:23.119 --> 19:25.230 will talk about you when the new when 19:25.239 --> 19:27.295 the full roll happens like , oh , we 19:27.295 --> 19:30.069 had this coach back then . That will be 19:30.079 --> 19:32.290 a thing you've , you have succeeded in 19:32.300 --> 19:34.910 setting in setting the table . Like I 19:34.920 --> 19:37.031 said , it's not gonna feel like a win 19:37.031 --> 19:38.976 at the time . It feels like just a 19:38.976 --> 19:40.976 regular Wednesday and you just work 19:40.976 --> 19:43.087 with that and with that group again , 19:43.087 --> 19:45.198 but that is the win in the long run . 19:45.198 --> 19:47.198 Like I said , these teams of five , 19:47.198 --> 19:49.309 these teams of eight can accomplish a 19:49.309 --> 19:51.531 lot in , in their footprint . It's just 19:51.531 --> 19:53.642 not gonna be the same as a team of 38 19:53.642 --> 19:55.642 even though that's , that's what we 19:55.642 --> 19:57.920 would all like for it to be next slide , 19:57.920 --> 20:01.660 please . So in 20:01.670 --> 20:04.280 closing , one thing that I will if you 20:04.290 --> 20:06.959 don't have H two F yet , if you're co 20:06.969 --> 20:09.080 if it's coming to you in the next few 20:09.080 --> 20:11.413 years and you want it to be there . Now , 20:11.449 --> 20:13.505 for those , for those division level 20:13.505 --> 20:15.671 leaders find a way to augment your MTO 20:15.671 --> 20:17.782 green suitors as soon as possible for 20:17.782 --> 20:19.893 us . It was finding that , that local 20:19.893 --> 20:23.469 contract put out by the division for a 20:23.479 --> 20:25.819 small number of contractors , both 20:25.979 --> 20:28.300 coaches and A Ts . Once you get those 20:28.310 --> 20:30.619 contractors on ground , let them be 20:30.630 --> 20:33.630 that forward facing member of the team , 20:33.640 --> 20:35.696 let them kind of go out find some of 20:35.696 --> 20:37.751 those friction points because that's 20:37.751 --> 20:39.862 what those coaches and A Ts do . They 20:39.862 --> 20:41.862 find those friction points and find 20:41.862 --> 20:43.640 ways to solve those problems as 20:43.640 --> 20:45.862 effectively as possible . Letting those 20:45.862 --> 20:47.973 medical providers do their , do their 20:47.973 --> 20:50.084 job as providers because again , they 20:50.084 --> 20:52.251 don't have those civilian counterparts 20:52.251 --> 20:54.307 to take up some of that slack in the 20:54.307 --> 20:56.609 Brigade for those teams . Find out your 20:56.619 --> 20:58.841 marketing strategy . It doesn't have to 20:58.841 --> 21:01.130 be the what we did , but find who your 21:01.140 --> 21:03.319 customers are gonna be and lean into 21:03.329 --> 21:05.273 those customers . That's how we're 21:05.273 --> 21:07.496 gonna affect change at that local level 21:07.496 --> 21:10.709 and which will grow to the Brigade and 21:10.719 --> 21:13.770 again , giving those customers exactly 21:13.780 --> 21:15.724 what they want , giving them great 21:15.724 --> 21:17.969 customer service , almost what I call 21:17.979 --> 21:20.290 over serving them on what they need , 21:20.300 --> 21:22.356 helping solve problems . They didn't 21:22.356 --> 21:24.356 even know they had by solving their 21:24.356 --> 21:26.133 initial problems . So , so , uh 21:26.133 --> 21:28.140 thoroughly which in the end that's 21:28.150 --> 21:30.261 gonna lay the foundation for the full 21:30.261 --> 21:33.359 roll out to build on . So , next slide , 21:33.369 --> 21:37.339 please . So again , thank 21:37.349 --> 21:39.469 you . Um , Jaded Reer here at the cab 21:39.479 --> 21:41.590 before rally . My contact information 21:41.590 --> 21:43.535 is at the bottom . If you have any 21:43.535 --> 21:45.757 questions , I'm more than happy to help 21:45.757 --> 21:49.680 out . Thank you . Thanks , Jared . 21:49.689 --> 21:51.578 Great presentation . And that's a 21:51.578 --> 21:53.810 really great example of utilizing what 21:53.819 --> 21:56.000 limited resources you have uh to get 21:56.010 --> 21:57.732 after H two F and , and really 21:57.732 --> 21:59.454 accomplish the mission for the 21:59.454 --> 22:01.677 commanders there down at that unit . Um 22:01.677 --> 22:03.843 I think a lot of us who have been down 22:03.843 --> 22:06.010 in the brigades and division level can 22:06.010 --> 22:08.066 kind of account for the fact that it 22:08.066 --> 22:08.010 takes a while to build that team . So 22:08.020 --> 22:10.242 even , you know , 1 October or whatever 22:10.242 --> 22:12.409 your fielding year is , the , the team 22:12.409 --> 22:14.520 doesn't just fall from the sky . So , 22:14.520 --> 22:16.631 you know , these are some really good 22:16.631 --> 22:16.239 lessons you can take because you're 22:16.250 --> 22:18.194 gonna get a couple people here , a 22:18.194 --> 22:20.417 couple of people there and you may be a 22:20.417 --> 22:22.528 team of 5 to 10 for a couple months . 22:22.528 --> 22:24.583 Um especially if we really emphasize 22:24.583 --> 22:26.806 hiring uh the quality over the quantity 22:26.806 --> 22:28.972 like we often talk about . So , thanks 22:28.979 --> 22:32.699 again , Jared . Thank you . OK . So our 22:32.709 --> 22:34.876 next presenter is sitting next to me , 22:34.876 --> 22:36.931 you probably if you were here during 22:36.931 --> 22:36.859 the commercial break , you might have 22:36.869 --> 22:39.510 seen his clip . And so I wanna welcome 22:39.520 --> 22:41.819 Sergeant Posey . Thanks for having me , 22:41.829 --> 22:44.619 sir . I appreciate it . My presentation 22:44.630 --> 22:46.241 is called Collaboration Over 22:46.241 --> 22:48.729 Competition and it's about building and 22:48.739 --> 22:50.719 getting after H two F and a Nonso 22:51.079 --> 22:53.760 Brigade . And we've gotten after that 22:53.770 --> 22:55.992 through utilizing current resources and 22:55.992 --> 22:58.048 building relationships and gathering 22:58.048 --> 23:00.159 and bolstering support to provide our 23:00.159 --> 23:02.510 own version of H two F uh nestled 23:02.520 --> 23:05.300 within Cimtsh Two F next slide , please . 23:06.920 --> 23:08.864 So a little background . The third 23:08.864 --> 23:10.976 United States Infantry regiment , the 23:10.976 --> 23:12.976 old Guard . We are located at Joint 23:12.976 --> 23:15.309 Base , Myer Henderson Hall in Arlington , 23:15.309 --> 23:17.531 Virginia . And we are the army's oldest 23:17.531 --> 23:19.698 active infantry regiment and we have a 23:19.698 --> 23:21.753 storied history and a unique mission 23:21.753 --> 23:23.753 set . We have three mission central 23:23.753 --> 23:26.087 tasks and the first is mortuary affairs . 23:26.087 --> 23:28.859 So we conduct all of the funerals in 23:28.869 --> 23:31.091 Arlington National Cemetery , laying to 23:31.091 --> 23:33.258 rest our fallen comrades . Second , we 23:33.258 --> 23:35.425 do ceremonies and special events where 23:35.425 --> 23:38.010 we represent the army and communicate 23:38.020 --> 23:40.353 its history to the nation and the world . 23:40.560 --> 23:42.782 And then lastly , we do defense support 23:42.782 --> 23:45.004 of civil authorities . So on order , we 23:45.004 --> 23:47.430 can conduct defense of the civil 23:47.439 --> 23:49.439 authorities in the national capital 23:49.439 --> 23:51.839 region . Our soldiers are stressed in 23:51.849 --> 23:53.905 unique ways , carrying out important 23:53.905 --> 23:55.640 and high profile missions with 23:55.650 --> 23:57.817 countless precision movements and long 23:57.817 --> 23:59.928 ceremonial stands that require poison 23:59.930 --> 24:02.239 and much more . The cost of this 24:02.250 --> 24:05.400 mission set is physical but also leans 24:05.410 --> 24:07.521 heavily into the non-physical domains 24:07.521 --> 24:09.632 of H two F and I'm here to talk about 24:09.632 --> 24:12.790 how we got after that and compile data 24:12.800 --> 24:14.522 and are able to present on the 24:14.522 --> 24:16.959 importance of getting after that line 24:16.969 --> 24:20.380 of effort . Next slide , please . So 24:20.390 --> 24:22.612 our regiment , the the old guard is led 24:22.612 --> 24:24.779 by Colonel David Roland and Major Guam 24:25.770 --> 24:27.881 and they care deeply about the health 24:27.881 --> 24:29.714 and welfare and readiness of our 24:29.714 --> 24:31.881 soldiers . So we embarked on a mission 24:31.881 --> 24:33.937 with a , with a big vision of making 24:33.937 --> 24:35.770 measurable change and a proof of 24:35.770 --> 24:37.880 concept 90 day pilot program . So on 24:37.890 --> 24:39.668 the slide , you can see our our 24:39.668 --> 24:41.834 timeline , right ? And we spent months 24:41.834 --> 24:43.839 building relationships with the 24:45.180 --> 24:47.402 different entities on the bottom of the 24:47.402 --> 24:49.959 page . But on the top , we chose a , a 24:49.969 --> 24:52.339 company from the Mortuary Affairs 24:52.349 --> 24:54.609 Battalion called Delta Company's Deco 24:54.939 --> 24:57.510 and they conduct mortuary affairs at a 24:57.520 --> 24:59.520 very high operational tempo as well 24:59.520 --> 25:01.687 supporting ceremonial missions . Now , 25:01.687 --> 25:03.576 this company has about 100 and 10 25:03.576 --> 25:06.060 personnel and on the top left of that 25:06.069 --> 25:08.180 screen , you see smarter base . So we 25:08.180 --> 25:09.989 chose Smarter Base as our human 25:10.000 --> 25:11.889 performance optimization software 25:11.889 --> 25:14.079 platform to collect and analyze our 25:14.089 --> 25:16.459 data in a very succinct and precise way . 25:17.150 --> 25:19.261 Now small disclosure smarter base was 25:19.261 --> 25:21.317 the the only portion of our proof of 25:21.317 --> 25:23.900 concept pilot that required funds and 25:23.910 --> 25:26.077 it actually came out to about 26 cents 25:26.077 --> 25:28.243 per soldier . For this pilot program , 25:28.890 --> 25:31.112 we also received help from decom in the 25:31.112 --> 25:33.279 form of fatigue science ready bands so 25:33.279 --> 25:35.223 that we could track these soldiers 25:35.223 --> 25:37.390 sleep patterns at length and quality . 25:37.390 --> 25:39.446 Now , for awareness , no soldier was 25:39.446 --> 25:41.699 required to engage in smarter base or 25:41.709 --> 25:43.876 wear a ready band without them wanting 25:43.876 --> 25:46.042 to do that . And when they were uh put 25:46.042 --> 25:48.265 on the the smarter base app , they were 25:48.265 --> 25:50.376 deidentified . So there's no personal 25:50.376 --> 25:52.589 identifying information . So for our 25:52.599 --> 25:55.130 pilot program , it started on July 24th , 25:55.140 --> 25:57.510 we we took the the soldiers that wanted 25:57.520 --> 25:59.631 to get on smarter base and take those 25:59.631 --> 26:01.631 initial assessments through smarter 26:01.631 --> 26:03.464 base . And we used the spiritual 26:03.464 --> 26:05.687 readiness assessment through the office 26:05.687 --> 26:07.909 of the Chief of Chief of Chaplains . We 26:07.909 --> 26:10.131 used a mental readiness assessment that 26:10.131 --> 26:11.853 was built out by the Ready and 26:11.853 --> 26:13.853 resilient team at Fort Belvoir . We 26:13.853 --> 26:16.187 used the Pittsburgh sleep quality index , 26:16.187 --> 26:18.353 uh to measure sleep quality and length 26:18.353 --> 26:20.576 and also the American College of Sports 26:20.576 --> 26:22.187 Medicine , height and weight 26:22.187 --> 26:24.353 assessments . So those are the initial 26:24.353 --> 26:24.109 assessments that we took through 26:24.119 --> 26:26.979 smarter base and then soldiers are also 26:27.150 --> 26:29.560 doing an Am Wellness check which we uh 26:29.569 --> 26:32.560 borrowed from Josh Hagen at the Ohio 26:32.569 --> 26:36.010 State , uh which asks about seven 26:36.020 --> 26:38.131 different types of Am wellness . This 26:38.131 --> 26:40.298 is an a daily check that they do every 26:40.298 --> 26:43.260 morning . So we started our , our pilot 26:43.270 --> 26:46.079 on July 24th with initial assessments . 26:46.089 --> 26:48.311 We did our 30 day assessments on August 26:48.311 --> 26:50.670 22nd and we just completed our 60 day 26:50.680 --> 26:52.847 assessments on the 21st of September . 26:52.930 --> 26:54.986 So we're about two thirds of the way 26:54.986 --> 26:57.097 through our pilot program with our 90 26:57.097 --> 26:59.097 day assessments uh coming in on the 26:59.097 --> 27:01.530 21st of this month and then ending uh 27:01.560 --> 27:04.439 everything a couple days after . Now , 27:04.449 --> 27:06.338 the entities on the bottom of the 27:06.338 --> 27:08.338 screen are all of our collaborative 27:08.338 --> 27:10.393 partners that have given time effort 27:10.393 --> 27:12.393 and support for our pilot program , 27:12.393 --> 27:14.393 which we are extremely grateful for 27:14.393 --> 27:16.727 first and foremost . On the bottom left , 27:16.727 --> 27:18.616 we have the Armed Forces Wellness 27:18.616 --> 27:20.560 Centers , which are uh on a lot of 27:20.560 --> 27:20.420 different installations across the 27:20.430 --> 27:22.374 United States and this one at Fort 27:22.374 --> 27:25.000 Belvoir is led by Nicole left and they 27:25.010 --> 27:26.899 offered some great things for our 27:26.899 --> 27:28.954 service members and , and families . 27:28.954 --> 27:30.621 They offer bod pods metabolic 27:30.621 --> 27:33.089 assessments . Uh vo two max testing , 27:33.099 --> 27:35.540 stress management , nutrition , 27:35.550 --> 27:38.050 education , so many things that can 27:38.060 --> 27:40.227 help the performance and , and educate 27:40.227 --> 27:42.338 and empower our soldiers . Secondly , 27:42.339 --> 27:44.506 we have the Alexander Augusta Military 27:44.506 --> 27:46.395 Medical Center and that's at Fort 27:46.395 --> 27:48.849 Belvoir and their occupational therapy 27:48.859 --> 27:50.859 team and physical therapy team wrap 27:50.859 --> 27:52.915 their arms around us and help us and 27:52.915 --> 27:54.915 their physical therapy team gave us 27:54.915 --> 27:57.359 some injury prevention courses and 27:57.369 --> 27:59.530 classes on a weekly basis . And their 27:59.540 --> 28:01.689 occupational therapy team came and 28:01.699 --> 28:03.866 educated our soldiers on diaphragmatic 28:03.866 --> 28:06.032 breathing and mental imagery and , and 28:06.040 --> 28:08.096 so many other things including sleep 28:09.199 --> 28:11.421 moving over to the middle . We have the 28:11.421 --> 28:13.532 Walter Institute of , of research and 28:13.532 --> 28:15.755 that sleep team there with Doctor Sarah 28:15.755 --> 28:17.588 Alger and Captain Jones has been 28:17.588 --> 28:19.588 amazing with helping us utilize the 28:19.588 --> 28:21.643 sleep data from the Pittsburgh sleep 28:21.643 --> 28:23.699 quality index and uh help us come up 28:23.699 --> 28:25.921 with ideas on how to uh integrate sleep 28:25.921 --> 28:27.921 leadership into that culture and to 28:27.921 --> 28:30.032 improve the sleep of that formation . 28:30.089 --> 28:32.089 Next , we have champ , which is the 28:32.089 --> 28:34.033 Consortium for health and military 28:34.033 --> 28:36.089 performance . We utilize champ and , 28:36.089 --> 28:38.089 and all the abundant resources that 28:38.089 --> 28:40.200 they have on human performance within 28:40.200 --> 28:42.367 our smarter base app . So later , I'll 28:42.367 --> 28:44.478 talk about the AM Wellness that these 28:44.478 --> 28:46.645 soldiers fill out , but based on those 28:46.645 --> 28:46.609 questions and how they answer those 28:46.619 --> 28:48.920 questions , the smarter base app takes 28:48.930 --> 28:51.097 them to champ and gives them resources 28:51.097 --> 28:53.208 and education on how to improve those 28:53.208 --> 28:55.486 different areas of , of daily wellness . 28:55.750 --> 28:57.972 Over to the right . We have operational 28:57.972 --> 28:59.930 supplement safety , which is a an 28:59.939 --> 29:03.369 amazing part of , of champ uh and uses 29:03.380 --> 29:05.547 which Miss Andrea Lindsay came out and 29:05.547 --> 29:07.713 provided supplement education to these 29:07.713 --> 29:09.824 soldiers about all different types of 29:09.824 --> 29:11.547 supplements and that there are 29:11.547 --> 29:13.213 supplements they can take and 29:13.213 --> 29:15.380 supplements . They they can't and gave 29:15.380 --> 29:17.491 us a little scorecard for soldiers to 29:17.491 --> 29:19.158 to go through when looking at 29:19.158 --> 29:21.269 supplements . So they can buy healthy 29:21.269 --> 29:23.213 performance supplements to improve 29:23.213 --> 29:25.436 their , their overall health . And last 29:25.436 --> 29:27.602 but definitely not least , uh the army 29:27.602 --> 29:29.824 ready and resilience center , they have 29:29.824 --> 29:29.420 provided some amazing cognitive 29:29.430 --> 29:31.652 performance experts to help and provide 29:31.652 --> 29:35.020 support as well as mentor that units M 29:35.030 --> 29:38.050 RT S or master resilience trainers . So 29:38.479 --> 29:40.646 ultimately , this collaborative effort 29:40.646 --> 29:42.701 shows that we can reduce ineffective 29:42.701 --> 29:44.868 redundancies and increase productivity 29:44.868 --> 29:47.090 and enhance the success of resources by 29:47.090 --> 29:49.146 synergize efforts and taking care of 29:49.146 --> 29:51.689 soldiers next slide , please . So here 29:51.699 --> 29:53.989 we have some inaction pictures and I'll 29:54.000 --> 29:56.709 go from left to right on the top , on 29:56.719 --> 29:58.619 the top left , we have a physical 29:58.630 --> 30:01.140 therapist . Uh Captain Foster from Fort 30:01.150 --> 30:03.317 Belvoir teaching our our soldiers some 30:03.317 --> 30:05.483 injury prevention going through the PM 30:05.483 --> 30:07.594 CS of your body if you will on how to 30:07.594 --> 30:09.829 lower injuries and get after training 30:09.839 --> 30:12.500 in a more effective intelligent way in 30:12.510 --> 30:14.621 the middle . We have Andrea Lindsay , 30:14.621 --> 30:16.566 talking about supplements to Delta 30:16.566 --> 30:18.788 Company and educating them . And on the 30:18.788 --> 30:20.510 top right , we have one of our 30:20.510 --> 30:22.621 cognitive performance experts getting 30:22.621 --> 30:24.621 after the mental domain uh teaching 30:24.621 --> 30:26.510 Delta Company , I believe in that 30:26.510 --> 30:28.732 picture about a growth mindset versus a 30:28.732 --> 30:30.788 fixed mindset . That was an engaging 30:30.788 --> 30:33.739 conversation . Bottom left was after a 30:33.750 --> 30:37.599 sleep sleep LP D by uh Doctor Alison 30:37.609 --> 30:39.540 Briger out of SOCOM . She was so 30:40.010 --> 30:41.954 amazingly helpful in coming up and 30:41.954 --> 30:44.066 being able to , to speak to our , our 30:44.066 --> 30:46.177 soldiers about that and in the bottom 30:46.177 --> 30:48.399 middle , we have the armed forces , one 30:48.399 --> 30:50.621 that is giving out a , a metabolic test 30:50.621 --> 30:52.788 to our soldiers . And that's something 30:52.788 --> 30:51.979 we did at the beginning . So they could 30:51.989 --> 30:54.100 all have information on the amount of 30:54.100 --> 30:56.211 calories they burn so that they could 30:56.211 --> 30:58.489 utilize that in their nutrition plants . 30:58.540 --> 31:00.762 And then lastly on the bottom , right , 31:00.762 --> 31:02.979 we have our , our tod uh specific meal 31:02.989 --> 31:05.280 prep class . So we , we realize that 31:05.290 --> 31:07.401 soldiers in the barracks , you know , 31:07.401 --> 31:09.123 often don't have the skills or 31:09.123 --> 31:11.290 education to , to do meal prep . So we 31:11.290 --> 31:13.068 bring them in with a registered 31:13.068 --> 31:14.957 dietitian and a general officer , 31:14.957 --> 31:16.957 enlisted aid and we , uh regimental 31:16.957 --> 31:19.179 commander pays for the groceries and we 31:19.179 --> 31:21.234 teach them how to create these meals 31:21.234 --> 31:23.290 and they cook them up themselves and 31:23.290 --> 31:22.739 they create them and then they go home 31:22.750 --> 31:24.972 for the weekend with , as you can see , 31:24.972 --> 31:26.917 4 to 5 meals and a full belly . So 31:26.917 --> 31:29.028 that's an awesome line of effort that 31:29.028 --> 31:31.139 we're getting after and talk with the 31:31.139 --> 31:33.306 meal prep program . Now I'm gonna move 31:33.306 --> 31:35.361 to data and , and what's the data we 31:35.361 --> 31:37.250 have and how do we look at it and 31:37.250 --> 31:39.361 what's improved next slide , please ? 31:39.361 --> 31:41.250 First , we're gonna get after the 31:41.250 --> 31:41.119 spiritual domain and spiritual 31:41.130 --> 31:43.349 readiness . And like I said earlier , 31:43.359 --> 31:45.470 the data we collected was through the 31:45.470 --> 31:47.692 spiritual readiness assessment from the 31:47.692 --> 31:49.748 office of the chief chaplains . This 31:49.748 --> 31:51.637 test is , is scored 1 to 5 with a 31:51.637 --> 31:54.410 higher score being better . And what , 31:54.420 --> 31:56.420 how did we implement this spiritual 31:56.420 --> 31:58.420 readiness uh line of effort in this 31:58.910 --> 32:01.021 formation is we did weekly resilience 32:01.021 --> 32:03.243 enhancement conversations with the unit 32:03.243 --> 32:05.410 ministry team . And that was just at a 32:05.410 --> 32:08.930 squad , 1 to 2 squad uh type of of 32:08.939 --> 32:11.050 engagement where they just talk about 32:11.050 --> 32:13.106 having a meaning and a purpose . And 32:13.106 --> 32:15.390 then also talking about the why the why 32:15.500 --> 32:17.556 the old guard mission is important . 32:17.556 --> 32:19.611 Why , why are we there ? And what is 32:19.611 --> 32:21.778 our story and how are we getting after 32:21.778 --> 32:24.111 it that that happened on a weekly basis ? 32:24.111 --> 32:26.167 And then we did one toughened spirit 32:26.167 --> 32:25.849 event and I'll have to credit the 32:25.859 --> 32:29.089 toughened spirit to the 1 73rd airborne 32:29.099 --> 32:31.210 and , and , and in the name of that , 32:31.210 --> 32:33.432 but essentially , we took all the squad 32:33.432 --> 32:35.543 leaders out off the A O for a day and 32:35.543 --> 32:37.766 the chaplains led that event and we did 32:37.766 --> 32:39.988 some obstacle courses and we did some , 32:39.988 --> 32:42.043 some team cohesion and communication 32:42.043 --> 32:44.155 games and fed them and just took them 32:44.155 --> 32:46.210 away from the daily grind of the job 32:46.210 --> 32:48.377 and just had conversations again about 32:48.377 --> 32:50.710 meaning and a purpose and , and the why . 32:50.710 --> 32:52.877 So the data on the top of the screen , 32:52.877 --> 32:54.988 you can see that over the course of , 32:54.988 --> 32:56.988 of the first three months uh or two 32:56.988 --> 32:59.210 months that 38% of that formation has a 32:59.210 --> 33:02.089 high and stable spiritual readiness . 33:02.099 --> 33:05.709 We have a 2% increase . 31% of that 33:05.719 --> 33:07.830 formation just has a stable spiritual 33:07.830 --> 33:11.439 readiness . We have a 10% uh with a 33:11.449 --> 33:13.616 stable and low spiritual readiness and 33:13.616 --> 33:17.250 then a 17% drop off and a 2% major drop 33:17.260 --> 33:19.229 off . And we can correlate that to 33:19.239 --> 33:21.239 operational demands of the mortuary 33:21.239 --> 33:23.295 fares and funerals being very , very 33:23.295 --> 33:25.183 high during the end of the summer 33:25.183 --> 33:27.239 season . Uh So it correlates to that 33:27.239 --> 33:29.461 and , and how that the spiritual domain 33:29.461 --> 33:31.683 is something that we need to constantly 33:31.683 --> 33:33.683 hit with this formation and that it 33:33.683 --> 33:35.906 stresses the why and the purpose in the 33:35.906 --> 33:37.739 meeting with these very critical 33:37.739 --> 33:39.795 missions . But overall , on the , on 33:39.795 --> 33:41.961 the right of that screen , you can see 33:41.961 --> 33:43.795 that over from July to August to 33:43.795 --> 33:45.683 September , the average spiritual 33:45.683 --> 33:47.683 readiness of that group has gone up 33:47.683 --> 33:47.369 significantly . And for that , 33:47.380 --> 33:51.359 specifically 3.18 in , in July is 33:51.430 --> 33:54.150 technically below uh what they would 33:54.160 --> 33:56.327 consider optimal spiritual readiness . 33:56.327 --> 34:00.290 And September 4.01 is above optimal 34:00.300 --> 34:02.467 spiritual readiness . So we've , we've 34:02.467 --> 34:04.411 been making some , some good gains 34:04.411 --> 34:06.633 there in the spiritual readiness domain 34:06.633 --> 34:08.522 for , for the old garden . That's 34:08.522 --> 34:10.744 awesome . We're very excited about that 34:10.744 --> 34:12.967 next time , please . Next , we have the 34:12.967 --> 34:15.189 mental domain and we utilize the mental 34:15.189 --> 34:17.189 reads assessment from the Ready and 34:17.189 --> 34:19.411 Resilience Center at Fort Belvoir . And 34:19.411 --> 34:21.522 that's a uh a self assessed survey to 34:21.522 --> 34:23.744 measure someone's or in an individual's 34:23.749 --> 34:26.358 mental readiness . And then we also did 34:26.368 --> 34:28.368 weekly utilization of the cognitive 34:28.368 --> 34:30.590 performance experts from the R two team 34:30.590 --> 34:32.757 and also the company master resilience 34:32.757 --> 34:35.510 training . They've done classes such as 34:35.520 --> 34:38.000 a growth versus fixed mindset , stress 34:38.010 --> 34:40.489 mindset , stress management , and a lot 34:40.500 --> 34:42.611 on diaphragmatic breathing so that we 34:42.611 --> 34:44.679 can help soldiers have that in the 34:44.689 --> 34:47.379 moment acute fix that acute response to 34:47.389 --> 34:49.389 stress with changing that from that 34:49.389 --> 34:51.689 sympathetic and that fight or flight to 34:51.699 --> 34:53.969 the parasympathetic rest and digest 34:54.219 --> 34:56.429 response that decreases their , their 34:56.439 --> 34:59.040 stress response physiologically . And 34:59.050 --> 35:01.419 as you can see on the top , right , the 35:02.070 --> 35:04.239 mental ratings assessment uh is scored 35:04.250 --> 35:06.139 higher , the better . So over the 35:06.139 --> 35:08.306 course of , of that two months , we've 35:08.306 --> 35:10.194 seen an increase in mental radius 35:10.194 --> 35:12.500 across that force . 70% of , of that 35:12.510 --> 35:14.649 company is a stable and high mental 35:14.659 --> 35:16.826 radius , which is great . We have a 4% 35:16.826 --> 35:18.929 improvement , 15% of that formation 35:18.939 --> 35:20.939 being stable and 11% drop off . And 35:20.939 --> 35:23.199 again , I believe we can correlate that 35:23.209 --> 35:25.431 to an increase in mortuary affairs over 35:25.431 --> 35:27.542 that those two month period of time . 35:27.770 --> 35:30.560 But overall a great increase uh in that 35:30.570 --> 35:32.737 formation as far as mental readiness . 35:32.737 --> 35:35.870 Next slide please . Here's where we get 35:35.879 --> 35:38.070 our big win and that's with sleep . So 35:38.080 --> 35:40.191 the data again was collected from the 35:40.191 --> 35:42.413 Pittsburgh sleep quality index and this 35:42.413 --> 35:44.524 was taken at uh day zero , day 30 day 35:44.524 --> 35:47.179 60 intervals . All of these were . And 35:47.550 --> 35:49.790 the way that we got after changing uh 35:49.800 --> 35:51.919 sleep within this formation is first 35:51.929 --> 35:54.139 and foremost , we , we empower that 35:54.149 --> 35:56.899 commander to have a squad designated PT 35:56.909 --> 35:59.129 plan . What that means is that those 35:59.139 --> 36:01.570 squad leaders can conduct PT at any 36:01.580 --> 36:03.802 time during the day that they see fit , 36:04.000 --> 36:06.111 right ? Some , some squad leaders are 36:06.111 --> 36:08.222 still doing PT at 06 30 because their 36:08.222 --> 36:10.444 squad likes to do that . Some are doing 36:10.444 --> 36:12.556 it past 1600 right ? But we've seen a 36:12.556 --> 36:14.778 massive increase in the amount of sleep 36:14.778 --> 36:16.944 and quality of sleep that soldiers are 36:16.944 --> 36:18.611 getting . We also had a sleep 36:18.611 --> 36:20.500 leadership LP D done by uh Doctor 36:20.500 --> 36:22.722 Alison Brager , which was great helping 36:22.722 --> 36:24.778 us understand heart rate variability 36:24.778 --> 36:27.000 and setting conditions for good sleep . 36:27.000 --> 36:29.056 And then also we have the ready band 36:29.056 --> 36:31.167 sleep data uh to match that as well . 36:31.270 --> 36:34.020 So 49% of that formation has a stable 36:34.030 --> 36:36.086 and high sleep readiness . We have a 36:36.086 --> 36:39.090 massive 8 18% increase , which is great . 36:39.280 --> 36:42.169 Uh 27% of that is stable and a 6% drop 36:42.179 --> 36:44.310 off . And I'm sure that you know that 36:44.320 --> 36:46.500 6% drop off is probably some guys that 36:46.510 --> 36:48.510 are like , hey , if I don't have to 36:48.510 --> 36:50.510 come in until an hour later . Maybe 36:50.510 --> 36:52.621 I'll stay up an hour later myself . I 36:52.621 --> 36:54.677 think we've all done that . Um , but 36:54.677 --> 36:56.566 overall with the Pittsburgh sleep 36:56.566 --> 36:58.788 quality index , a lower score is better 36:58.788 --> 37:01.010 and that's a massive decrease from July 37:01.010 --> 37:03.177 with an average coming down almost two 37:03.177 --> 37:05.288 points . So , seeing some big changes 37:05.288 --> 37:07.121 in , in the sleep aspect of that 37:07.121 --> 37:09.288 formation which increases , you know , 37:09.288 --> 37:11.232 decision making judgment increases 37:11.232 --> 37:13.343 morale , soldiers get to , you know , 37:13.343 --> 37:15.343 wake up with their families , maybe 37:15.343 --> 37:17.510 take their kids to school , maybe have 37:17.510 --> 37:16.689 a little bit of a slower morning and 37:16.699 --> 37:18.810 then come to work and get after PT if 37:18.810 --> 37:21.250 they so choose so big one there for us . 37:21.350 --> 37:25.159 Next slide please . This is 37:25.169 --> 37:27.336 the overall aim wellness that I talked 37:27.336 --> 37:29.558 about earlier . So the am Wellness , if 37:29.558 --> 37:31.725 you look at the heptagon in the middle 37:31.725 --> 37:33.669 of that screen , uh looks at seven 37:33.669 --> 37:35.558 different aspects of , of a daily 37:35.558 --> 37:37.669 wellness . So first it asks you about 37:37.669 --> 37:39.780 sleep and it asks about hydration and 37:39.780 --> 37:42.113 nutrition , stress , fatigue , soreness , 37:42.113 --> 37:44.336 and motivate motivation . Again , these 37:44.336 --> 37:46.447 are done on a daily basis . Um We can 37:46.447 --> 37:49.370 see that as we have increased our , our 37:49.429 --> 37:51.719 touch points with this formation , that 37:51.729 --> 37:53.840 utilization of this app has increased 37:53.840 --> 37:55.729 dramatically . And that's through 37:55.729 --> 37:57.729 building relationships . You know , 37:57.729 --> 38:00.007 even though we're non resource brigade , 38:00.007 --> 38:01.896 we're there , we're building that 38:01.896 --> 38:03.951 relationship . We're talking about H 38:03.951 --> 38:03.709 two fa lot , the leaders are talking 38:03.719 --> 38:05.941 about it and that increases awareness . 38:05.941 --> 38:08.163 So on the left of that screen , you can 38:08.163 --> 38:10.330 see the utilization of the AM wellness 38:10.330 --> 38:12.649 on a daily basis has gone dramatically 38:12.659 --> 38:15.090 over the last two months . So we're 38:15.100 --> 38:16.933 going from maybe a third of that 38:16.933 --> 38:19.100 formation to using it to almost 80% of 38:19.100 --> 38:21.156 that formation using it because they 38:21.156 --> 38:23.211 see the value in it and they get the 38:23.211 --> 38:25.100 responses and they , they get the 38:25.100 --> 38:27.449 resources to send them to chant back to 38:27.459 --> 38:29.489 the Heptagon in the middle . We see 38:29.500 --> 38:31.556 that the white line is July and that 38:31.556 --> 38:33.679 the blue line is August and we see a 38:33.689 --> 38:36.939 massive increase in hydration . We see 38:36.949 --> 38:39.116 better nutrition across the board . We 38:39.116 --> 38:41.116 see that stress is still relatively 38:41.116 --> 38:43.282 high , that fatigue is the same , that 38:43.282 --> 38:45.393 soreness is less because they've been 38:45.393 --> 38:47.505 getting those uh intervention courses 38:47.505 --> 38:49.616 and and PT planning courses on how to 38:49.616 --> 38:51.560 improve and intelligently their PT 38:51.560 --> 38:53.505 programming and that motivation is 38:53.505 --> 38:55.727 about the same and that they're getting 38:55.727 --> 38:57.893 more sleep . So we can see kind of how 38:57.893 --> 38:59.838 the formation changes based on the 38:59.838 --> 39:01.893 operational tempo of of what they're 39:01.893 --> 39:04.116 doing on a daily basis . That's the fat 39:04.116 --> 39:06.393 portion of the screen . And on the top , 39:06.393 --> 39:08.449 right , the AM wellness is graded on 39:08.449 --> 39:10.616 out of 35 . So we see that the average 39:10.616 --> 39:12.782 is relatively , the same has gone down 39:12.782 --> 39:14.838 a little bit over the course of that 39:14.838 --> 39:17.005 two months . But there are significant 39:17.005 --> 39:19.171 increases in different aspects of that 39:19.171 --> 39:21.060 AM wellness on the bottom of that 39:21.060 --> 39:23.005 screen , we see impact . So we see 39:23.005 --> 39:25.338 stress how these soldiers have answered . 39:25.338 --> 39:27.338 Stress has increased over those two 39:27.338 --> 39:29.505 months . And for the old guard that is 39:29.505 --> 39:31.171 generally normal , we see our 39:31.171 --> 39:33.227 operational tempo go up dramatically 39:33.227 --> 39:35.449 towards the end of the summer . We have 39:35.449 --> 39:37.616 a lot of high profile missions and our 39:37.616 --> 39:39.838 international cemetery is constantly at 39:39.838 --> 39:42.116 a high operational tempo with funerals . 39:42.116 --> 39:44.282 When it comes to flags . We integrated 39:44.282 --> 39:46.505 a algorithm where if a soldier answered 39:46.505 --> 39:48.840 an Am Wellness question , two standard 39:48.850 --> 39:51.080 deviations away from his or her normal 39:51.090 --> 39:53.260 that it would get a flag . Now , we 39:53.270 --> 39:55.219 haven't been making any informed 39:55.229 --> 39:57.173 decisions with this data . What we 39:57.173 --> 39:59.118 wanna do is collect it and see the 39:59.118 --> 40:00.840 trends . But we see this as an 40:00.840 --> 40:03.820 opportunity for commanders or uh H two 40:03.830 --> 40:06.320 FNCO I CS and these nonso brigades for 40:06.330 --> 40:08.497 this to create an opportunity to build 40:08.497 --> 40:10.663 rapport and have a conversation with a 40:10.663 --> 40:12.886 soldier and maybe it's not like , hey , 40:12.886 --> 40:12.770 your data is bad but hey , what's going 40:12.780 --> 40:16.429 on and build that relationship ? Um So 40:16.439 --> 40:18.328 yeah , that's , that's an overall 40:18.328 --> 40:20.383 aspect of how we're getting after it 40:20.383 --> 40:22.661 with Am Wellness . Next slide , please . 40:22.661 --> 40:24.717 So it's always good to have a second 40:24.717 --> 40:26.272 set of data to bolster your 40:26.272 --> 40:28.439 understanding and to look at it from a 40:28.439 --> 40:30.606 few different angles . So the we asked 40:30.606 --> 40:32.550 the occupational therapy team from 40:32.550 --> 40:34.717 Augusta Medical Center at Fort Belvoir 40:34.717 --> 40:36.939 to conduct some of their own methods of 40:36.939 --> 40:39.050 data collection on on Delta Company . 40:39.050 --> 40:41.106 So they did three different things . 40:41.106 --> 40:40.159 They first looked at heart rate 40:40.169 --> 40:42.489 variability . Second thing they looked 40:42.500 --> 40:44.556 at was the generalized anxiety score 40:44.556 --> 40:46.439 and lat it sleep . But first and 40:46.449 --> 40:48.560 foremost , we we looked at heart rate 40:48.560 --> 40:50.782 variability and it focused on coherence 40:50.782 --> 40:52.893 and coherence , positively correlates 40:52.893 --> 40:54.949 to an increase in in parasympathetic 40:54.949 --> 40:57.209 activity , right ? Which is that rest 40:57.219 --> 40:59.979 and digest period , re release stress 40:59.989 --> 41:02.211 and you're not at the fight or flight . 41:02.211 --> 41:04.322 And we see that a fire is better with 41:04.322 --> 41:06.100 coherence . So the occupational 41:06.100 --> 41:08.189 therapist did two screens . And then 41:08.199 --> 41:10.199 one of the things I wanted to bring 41:10.199 --> 41:12.310 home is that when we embarked on this 41:12.310 --> 41:14.366 proof of concept , we didn't want to 41:14.366 --> 41:16.643 put anything on this commander's plate . 41:16.643 --> 41:15.820 We wanted to work with it and be 41:15.830 --> 41:17.830 flexible with their , their company 41:17.830 --> 41:20.070 training calendar . So as you can see 41:20.080 --> 41:22.209 with the screen , the first first 41:22.219 --> 41:24.386 screen in July , we had 79 soldiers in 41:24.386 --> 41:26.608 the second screen in August , we had 68 41:26.608 --> 41:28.497 because at those periods of times 41:28.497 --> 41:30.608 during the day , people were just out 41:30.608 --> 41:32.719 on mission . So we wanted to gather a 41:32.719 --> 41:34.441 true understanding of , of not 41:34.441 --> 41:36.497 interrupting that battle rhythm . Um 41:36.497 --> 41:38.497 But over the course of , of July to 41:38.497 --> 41:40.520 August , we see a 22% increase in 41:40.530 --> 41:42.308 coherence . And that's with the 41:42.308 --> 41:44.530 education from the occupational therapy 41:44.530 --> 41:46.752 team on breathing techniques and mental 41:46.752 --> 41:48.863 imagery and reframing mindset , which 41:48.863 --> 41:50.760 is awesome . Next fly , please . 41:52.330 --> 41:53.997 Secondly , they looked at the 41:53.997 --> 41:55.997 generalized anxiety score , the G A 41:55.997 --> 41:58.163 seven and this is a self reported test 41:58.163 --> 42:00.330 focusing on the last two weeks of , of 42:00.330 --> 42:02.552 anxiety and it's grading from a 0 to 21 42:02.552 --> 42:05.949 scale . 0 to 9 being none to mild 42:05.959 --> 42:08.110 anxiety , 10 to 14 being moderate 42:08.120 --> 42:11.919 anxiety , 15 to 21 being severe . So we 42:11.929 --> 42:15.340 see that from a from July to August 42:15.350 --> 42:17.239 that we have some changes in this 42:17.239 --> 42:19.072 formation with anxiety . We have 42:19.072 --> 42:21.128 lowered anxiety , which is a big win 42:21.128 --> 42:21.070 across the board . We have a 4% 42:21.080 --> 42:24.659 decrease from moderate anxiety and a 1% 42:24.669 --> 42:27.030 decrease from severe , right . So we 42:27.040 --> 42:30.250 have more of that formation uh falling 42:30.260 --> 42:32.840 into the none or mild anxiety . And 42:32.850 --> 42:35.449 we're , we're lowering the amounts of , 42:35.459 --> 42:37.626 of soldiers in that formation who have 42:37.626 --> 42:39.737 moderate or severe anxiety , which is 42:39.737 --> 42:41.737 important to get after next slide , 42:41.737 --> 42:44.520 please . Lastly , we have sleep . So we 42:44.530 --> 42:46.586 wanna look at sleep a second way and 42:46.979 --> 42:49.689 the occupational therapy team did some 42:49.699 --> 42:51.921 education on best practices and setting 42:51.921 --> 42:54.080 conditions for good sleep . And over 42:54.090 --> 42:56.312 the course of of those two screens from 42:56.312 --> 42:58.534 July to August again , just reiterating 42:58.534 --> 43:00.534 the , the smarter base data that we 43:00.534 --> 43:02.646 have , which was succinct and great , 43:02.646 --> 43:06.459 which is we have a 19% down from 34% of 43:06.469 --> 43:08.760 that formation reporting 5.5 hours or 43:08.770 --> 43:10.937 less sleep . And we have no percent of 43:10.937 --> 43:13.510 that formation getting under 3.5 hours 43:13.520 --> 43:15.500 of sleep , which is wild . So the 43:15.510 --> 43:17.621 majority of that formation is getting 43:17.621 --> 43:19.677 more than six hours , which again is 43:19.677 --> 43:21.677 increasing morale , it's increasing 43:21.677 --> 43:23.788 decision making and judgment skills , 43:23.788 --> 43:26.121 all of those good things . So this is a , 43:26.121 --> 43:28.288 an opportunity for us to , to come out 43:28.288 --> 43:30.343 and come back to the beginning and , 43:30.343 --> 43:32.566 and close out on , on how we're getting 43:32.566 --> 43:34.677 after H two F in , in the old guard , 43:34.677 --> 43:36.843 moving the needle . And it wouldn't be 43:36.843 --> 43:38.788 possible without the collaborative 43:38.788 --> 43:40.899 efforts and partners that we've built 43:40.899 --> 43:40.370 relationships with and asked for 43:40.379 --> 43:43.209 support . So ultimately , I hope that 43:43.909 --> 43:46.131 any of you who are non resource can see 43:46.131 --> 43:48.298 that it is possible to move the needle 43:48.298 --> 43:50.409 and get after H two F and improve the 43:50.409 --> 43:52.353 health wellness and performance of 43:52.353 --> 43:54.631 soldiers in your formation . Thank you . 43:57.050 --> 44:00.020 Thanks are posy . So hopefully those 44:00.030 --> 44:02.252 two presentations kind of give you guys 44:02.252 --> 44:04.363 examples of , you know , what can you 44:04.363 --> 44:06.419 do with your limited resources , but 44:06.419 --> 44:08.586 also if you have no resources at all . 44:08.586 --> 44:10.752 And I think uh that one example sir is 44:10.752 --> 44:10.540 really good . Uh you know , getting up 44:10.550 --> 44:12.550 to the sleep domain by tweaking the 44:12.550 --> 44:14.717 physical domain a little bit helps you 44:14.717 --> 44:16.883 have kind of access to kind of uh just 44:16.883 --> 44:18.828 a better idea of how we can impact 44:18.828 --> 44:20.883 across the board as we're , as we're 44:20.883 --> 44:23.050 moving forward with H two F . Um Let's 44:23.050 --> 44:25.161 go ahead and open up the chat for any 44:25.161 --> 44:27.328 questions that we might have . There . 44:27.328 --> 44:29.494 There was a question for Jared and the 44:29.494 --> 44:31.830 audience um is how utilizing the H two 44:31.840 --> 44:34.330 F integrators or the extenders , the , 44:34.340 --> 44:36.750 the training of the NC OS and utilizing 44:36.760 --> 44:39.639 them how they use those at Riley . 44:41.830 --> 44:44.899 Right . So , um , we didn't have a lot 44:44.909 --> 44:47.242 of them in our footprint or still don't . 44:47.242 --> 44:50.100 So for those of when we do have those 44:50.110 --> 44:52.600 back when it was mftsmfts that we did 44:52.610 --> 44:54.443 have in the footprint , we would 44:54.443 --> 44:56.221 encourage them to come into our 44:56.221 --> 44:58.189 extender courses , build on that 44:58.199 --> 45:00.143 knowledge that the schoolhouse had 45:00.143 --> 45:02.199 already given them kind of refine it 45:02.199 --> 45:04.199 towards what those specific coaches 45:04.199 --> 45:06.366 were leaning into because all of our , 45:06.366 --> 45:06.330 all coaches have their own little 45:06.340 --> 45:08.396 preference on how they like to , how 45:08.396 --> 45:10.451 they like to program and things like 45:10.451 --> 45:12.729 that . So kind of for lack of a better , 45:12.729 --> 45:14.896 better term , reeducate them to how we 45:14.896 --> 45:16.729 want to do it that way . They're 45:16.729 --> 45:18.784 comfortable in reading our program , 45:18.784 --> 45:20.673 reading our , our layout and then 45:20.673 --> 45:22.784 moving forward with that . So we , we 45:22.784 --> 45:24.951 would rely on them very heavily , um , 45:24.951 --> 45:26.784 if they're present in the unit . 45:29.439 --> 45:31.661 Thanks J I believe we have one question 45:31.661 --> 45:34.520 in regards to funding . Yes , there was 45:34.530 --> 45:36.586 a , yeah , there was a funding about 45:36.586 --> 45:39.139 the , um , how H two F is funded ? Um , 45:39.870 --> 45:43.040 pull it up . Yes , that's ok . I , I 45:43.050 --> 45:45.620 can , hey , this is , uh , uh , Colonel 45:45.629 --> 45:47.639 Falconberry . Uh , I guess I , I do 45:47.649 --> 45:49.538 want to start off by echoing what 45:49.538 --> 45:53.209 General Klein said , uh , you know , 45:53.239 --> 45:55.429 the , the teammates on the net , 45:55.439 --> 45:57.969 everyone speaking , uh , everyone in H 45:57.979 --> 46:00.257 two F has done such an exceptional job . 46:00.257 --> 46:02.257 So because of that uh we are seeing 46:02.257 --> 46:05.120 some phenomenal support from our army , 46:05.129 --> 46:07.729 senior leaders . So H two F since its 46:07.739 --> 46:09.628 inception has been a very dynamic 46:09.628 --> 46:12.689 program uh dynamic in a way of how it's 46:12.699 --> 46:15.245 gonna have been rolled out , how uh how 46:15.254 --> 46:17.476 much funding we're gonna get , how many 46:17.476 --> 46:19.587 units we're gonna field uh per year . 46:19.587 --> 46:21.421 And as you know , uh just like a 46:21.421 --> 46:23.643 division one , we've had that accordion 46:23.643 --> 46:25.643 effect where uh it's go fast , slow 46:25.643 --> 46:27.754 down , go fast , slow down . So I , I 46:27.754 --> 46:29.754 can't disclose too much information 46:29.754 --> 46:32.754 right now , but uh the CG General Klein 46:32.764 --> 46:35.965 kind of hinted that uh we're , we're 46:35.975 --> 46:38.909 looking really good and um and uh we 46:38.919 --> 46:41.590 are , uh uh we got some good news that 46:41.600 --> 46:44.090 we're trying to digest to see uh what 46:44.100 --> 46:46.719 the future of H two F looks like uh on 46:46.729 --> 46:49.439 the funding site . Uh I will tell you 46:49.449 --> 46:51.590 that uh as I , as I discussed kind of 46:51.600 --> 46:53.822 the dynamic and that accordion effect , 46:53.822 --> 46:56.179 we did see some of that happening . And 46:56.189 --> 46:58.889 in fact , initially , we were uh we 46:58.899 --> 47:01.010 were under this uh an end depth . The 47:01.010 --> 47:03.232 end depth is basically think of it as a 47:03.232 --> 47:05.399 bank account . We were in this massive 47:05.399 --> 47:07.621 end depth . So we're in this massive uh 47:07.621 --> 47:09.510 bank account that nobody could uh 47:09.510 --> 47:11.621 delineate what is H two F and what is 47:11.621 --> 47:14.510 utilized for H two F which is uh bad . 47:14.520 --> 47:17.360 Uh Now , thankfully in Fy 25 we're 47:17.370 --> 47:19.770 gonna be taken over our own M DE , 47:19.790 --> 47:21.901 we're gonna be in our own end depth . 47:21.901 --> 47:23.901 Which what what that means is we'll 47:23.901 --> 47:25.901 have a lot more kind of command and 47:25.901 --> 47:28.123 control and visibility of where , where 47:28.123 --> 47:30.234 and how these funds get utilized . Uh 47:30.234 --> 47:32.234 And these funds are not uh that's a 47:32.234 --> 47:34.346 like a legal term , meaning that they 47:34.346 --> 47:37.080 can only be used for a specific entity 47:37.090 --> 47:39.201 alone , but they are earmarked . That 47:39.201 --> 47:41.423 means that somebody does have to answer 47:41.423 --> 47:43.534 if they're utilized in one way or the 47:43.534 --> 47:45.701 other , the majority of it . So we are 47:45.701 --> 47:47.868 definitely in the planning programming 47:47.868 --> 47:50.034 and budgeting and execution cycle . We 47:50.034 --> 47:52.146 always palm for this and the majority 47:52.146 --> 47:54.201 of our money uh goes to , to pay our 47:54.201 --> 47:57.989 fantastic uh civilians . Uh And that 47:58.000 --> 48:00.111 we don't see that that's army sending 48:00.111 --> 48:02.250 it out . Uh What we do see that what 48:02.260 --> 48:04.204 comes to trade off is paying these 48:04.204 --> 48:06.204 contracts . And then we also have a 48:06.204 --> 48:08.204 tremendous amount of budget that we 48:08.204 --> 48:10.149 have allocated for sustainment and 48:10.149 --> 48:12.316 equipment and then any other uh future 48:12.316 --> 48:14.570 initiatives . So the bluff is , yes , 48:14.580 --> 48:17.830 we are definitely in the PB and C and 48:17.840 --> 48:21.350 bomb cycle . Uh Yes , we have 48:21.360 --> 48:23.360 tremendous support from army senior 48:23.360 --> 48:25.780 leaders and uh and , and things are 48:25.790 --> 48:28.159 looking good for us . But uh hopefully , 48:28.169 --> 48:30.336 I know that was a verbose , but I just 48:30.336 --> 48:32.391 wanted to come over the top with and 48:32.391 --> 48:35.870 emphasize what the CG said and we got a 48:35.879 --> 48:38.046 hot mic , we got hot mic somewhere out 48:38.046 --> 48:40.157 there and we've got , we got one more 48:40.157 --> 48:42.323 que a clarifying question for Sergeant 48:42.323 --> 48:44.546 Posey that uh that you could repeat the 48:44.546 --> 48:46.768 uh timeline and what units received all 48:46.768 --> 48:48.546 the training , the size of your 48:48.546 --> 48:51.189 population . Yes . So the population of 48:51.199 --> 48:53.360 our , of our pilot program is one 48:53.370 --> 48:55.148 company . It's about 100 and 10 48:55.148 --> 48:57.370 personnel and the timeline of the proof 48:57.370 --> 48:59.426 of concept is 90 days and we're just 48:59.426 --> 49:01.592 over that 60 day mark . So our 90 days 49:01.592 --> 49:04.090 portion will be finished 21st October .
