So I appreciate you 01:59.791 --> 02:02.089 cutting that off . Um Well , this place 02:02.099 --> 02:04.210 is alive with energy . I've been to a 02:04.210 --> 02:06.190 lot of conferences in my day , but 02:06.199 --> 02:08.199 normally they're not such a buzz of 02:08.199 --> 02:10.366 activity and electricity in the room . 02:10.366 --> 02:12.477 Uh And I guess it's fitting that this 02:12.477 --> 02:14.421 is the H two F symposium and we're 02:14.421 --> 02:16.477 filled with people that are probably 02:16.477 --> 02:18.421 pumped up on caffeine . They had a 02:18.421 --> 02:20.588 great workout this morning . We've got 02:20.588 --> 02:22.699 experts on the spiritual domain , the 02:22.699 --> 02:24.699 mental domain . So I'm excited that 02:24.699 --> 02:26.699 we're here for our , my third , our 02:26.699 --> 02:29.179 fourth annual H two F symposium . And 02:29.190 --> 02:31.412 for those of you that were with us last 02:31.412 --> 02:34.240 year in Fort Eustis , we might , might 02:34.250 --> 02:37.520 have violated a few fire codes . As I 02:37.529 --> 02:39.696 recall , it was standing room only and 02:39.696 --> 02:41.918 everybody was sitting in the aisles all 02:41.918 --> 02:43.918 over the place . And it was at that 02:43.918 --> 02:43.699 moment I said , ok , we got to up our 02:43.710 --> 02:45.543 game . We're gonna , we're gonna 02:45.543 --> 02:47.766 graduate and we're going to move out to 02:47.766 --> 02:49.988 a real convention center . So thanks to 02:49.988 --> 02:49.289 all of you that have traveled in from 02:49.300 --> 02:51.720 far distances to , to be a part of this 02:51.729 --> 02:54.229 uh , next two days , I'm fired up about 02:54.240 --> 02:56.351 it .

All right , super 04:23.551 --> 04:25.773 agenda for the next couple of days . Uh 04:25.773 --> 04:27.884 And for the first time , we are going 04:27.884 --> 04:29.829 to recognize the , the top H two F 04:29.829 --> 04:33.790 programs um across the five domains 04:33.799 --> 04:36.021 coming from the operational force . And 04:36.021 --> 04:38.243 that's , that's a big , so our major of 04:38.243 --> 04:40.466 the army is gonna help award the uh the 04:40.466 --> 04:39.880 trophies over here . So we're gonna , 04:39.929 --> 04:42.040 we're gonna have the best of the best 04:42.040 --> 04:44.207 of the best . I always think about men 04:44.207 --> 04:47.019 in black uh as we recognize our , our 04:47.059 --> 04:49.059 best in each one of the domains and 04:49.059 --> 04:51.779 then just like we did last year , uh 04:51.790 --> 04:54.309 You all be the first to see the latest 04:54.320 --> 04:56.431 return on investment or data that was 04:56.431 --> 04:58.487 compiled by Dr Andrew Thompson who's 04:58.487 --> 05:00.487 sitting up here in the front . Um I 05:00.487 --> 05:02.598 know that we had an embargoed article 05:02.598 --> 05:04.542 with the Army Times . I think it's 05:04.542 --> 05:06.764 supposed to go out sometime today if it 05:06.764 --> 05:06.459 isn't already , but you're going to see 05:06.470 --> 05:09.149 a much finer granularity . Um And then 05:09.160 --> 05:11.271 I'll share that with the vice and you 05:11.271 --> 05:13.382 saw a major of the army and a surgeon 05:13.382 --> 05:15.549 general as well . So we want that to , 05:15.549 --> 05:15.459 to kind of get out there , I would 05:15.470 --> 05:17.359 encourage you , although you have 05:17.359 --> 05:19.470 silenced your cell phones . Um Please 05:19.470 --> 05:21.526 feel free to take pictures of any of 05:21.526 --> 05:23.192 the slides , take pictures of 05:23.192 --> 05:25.359 yourselves , take pictures out there , 05:25.359 --> 05:25.010 take pictures out there , post the 05:25.019 --> 05:27.339 stuff all over the place and continue 05:27.350 --> 05:30.489 to promote this awesome initiative . Ok . 05:30.739 --> 05:32.739 So what I'd like to do briefly is I 05:32.739 --> 05:34.961 just want to kind of walk you through a 05:34.961 --> 05:37.183 quick recap of what we've done the last 05:37.183 --> 05:39.350 year , kind of catch everybody up . Um 05:39.350 --> 05:39.339 I'll give you a quick glimpse into the 05:39.350 --> 05:41.709 future and then I'm gonna introduce our 05:41.720 --> 05:44.570 keynote speaker . So it's clearly been 05:44.579 --> 05:46.523 exciting to watch this . It's been 05:46.523 --> 05:48.412 about 2.5 years that I've been in 05:48.412 --> 05:50.357 command . Um I was actually at the 05:50.357 --> 05:52.540 meeting when um they made the proposal 05:52.920 --> 05:55.429 uh for H two F in 2000 . It was up in 05:55.440 --> 05:57.273 the trade headquarters , General 05:57.273 --> 05:59.273 mcconville is the chief and you may 05:59.273 --> 06:01.273 have heard this before , but he was 06:01.273 --> 06:01.239 looking to see how he could fund it all 06:01.250 --> 06:03.399 in one year honestly . Um But there 06:03.410 --> 06:05.466 were gonna be challenges with hiring 06:05.466 --> 06:07.521 like every strength and conditioning 06:07.521 --> 06:06.750 coach and athletic trainer in the 06:06.760 --> 06:09.369 entire army in one day . And so we 06:09.380 --> 06:11.436 decided we needed to spread that out 06:11.436 --> 06:13.547 over time . And , but that just tells 06:13.547 --> 06:15.769 you the excitement that our army senior 06:15.769 --> 06:17.880 leaders had then , and that continues 06:17.880 --> 06:19.936 if not even more . So today with our 06:19.936 --> 06:22.158 senior leaders , um we started fielding 06:22.158 --> 06:24.269 the teams in 21 . We fielded 28 teams 06:24.269 --> 06:26.491 that first year and then by design , we 06:26.491 --> 06:28.713 were going to take a knee in fy 22 just 06:28.713 --> 06:30.936 to see how it's all working out . COVID 06:30.936 --> 06:33.540 helped us with taking a knee and uh we 06:33.549 --> 06:35.660 were pretty excited about it and then 06:35.660 --> 06:37.771 23 we resumed fielding the teams . We 06:37.771 --> 06:39.882 did 10 more and 23 and we're doing 10 06:39.882 --> 06:42.160 more this year . So by the end of this , 06:42.160 --> 06:44.130 fy , we're going to have 50 of the 06:44.140 --> 06:46.829 eventual 100 and 11 teams fielded for 06:46.839 --> 06:49.230 the active component . I've been asked 06:49.239 --> 06:51.239 by senior leaders to take a look at 06:51.320 --> 06:53.542 what it would cost and how we might get 06:53.542 --> 06:55.542 after expanding that . So I'm doing 06:55.542 --> 06:57.653 that and I'll just leave it at that . 06:57.653 --> 06:59.876 And then a little bit later on , you're 06:59.876 --> 06:59.529 gonna hear from Major General Bob 06:59.540 --> 07:01.651 Harder and commands our major range . 07:01.651 --> 07:03.651 We're gonna talk a little bit about 07:03.651 --> 07:05.873 compo two , compo three and a couple of 07:05.873 --> 07:07.984 the pilots that they're running right 07:07.984 --> 07:10.207 now to finally now expand this into the 07:10.207 --> 07:10.059 reserve component . So you , I think 07:10.070 --> 07:12.181 they've got five pilots each that are 07:12.181 --> 07:14.348 getting fielded out there . As you can 07:14.348 --> 07:13.890 imagine , it's a little bit unique for 07:13.899 --> 07:16.010 the 54 states and territories and how 07:16.010 --> 07:18.121 you might approach that problem set . 07:18.121 --> 07:20.343 But they're working on that and I think 07:20.343 --> 07:20.170 they've secured funding that will start 07:20.179 --> 07:23.239 in fy 26 . In case you're not tracking , 07:23.250 --> 07:25.309 we have revamped , renamed the old 07:25.320 --> 07:27.320 United States Army Physical Fitness 07:27.320 --> 07:29.542 School . It's now the H two F Academy , 07:29.542 --> 07:31.598 uh with all the appropriate branding 07:31.598 --> 07:33.709 and everything else . Uh , and we are 07:33.709 --> 07:35.931 producing and have been producing for a 07:35.931 --> 07:35.230 little while now , the H two F 07:35.239 --> 07:37.183 integrator , the artist , formerly 07:37.183 --> 07:39.295 known as the master fitness trainer , 07:39.295 --> 07:41.572 but it's a much more robust individual . 07:41.572 --> 07:43.795 I would highly encourage you to send as 07:43.795 --> 07:45.850 many soldiers as you want , get them 07:45.850 --> 07:48.183 into Atar S and get them into the queue . 07:48.183 --> 07:50.350 And then we are also still working and 07:50.350 --> 07:52.572 getting closer on the H two F advisor . 07:52.572 --> 07:54.683 This is the 8 to 12 week curriculum . 07:54.683 --> 07:54.500 That's much more comprehensive that 07:54.510 --> 07:57.260 makes a soldier a little more um 07:57.269 --> 07:59.325 conversant in all five domains . And 07:59.325 --> 08:01.547 this way , you also have a soldier that 08:01.547 --> 08:03.658 can deploy with you and then help you 08:03.658 --> 08:05.602 no matter where you go . So that's 08:05.602 --> 08:05.410 great work that's being done . And if 08:05.420 --> 08:07.531 you haven't met Colonel Ken Dwyer , I 08:07.531 --> 08:09.587 think here he is . Ok . I got bright 08:09.587 --> 08:11.587 lights on . But Ken Dwyer , a great 08:11.587 --> 08:11.369 teammate , he leads the leader training 08:11.380 --> 08:13.547 brigade and he works side by side with 08:13.547 --> 08:15.713 our H two F director at all down there 08:15.713 --> 08:17.936 at Fort Jackson , there's General Kelly 08:17.936 --> 08:20.047 uh to make that a reality but uh just 08:20.047 --> 08:22.269 super work being done by that team down 08:22.269 --> 08:25.399 there . Um We now have day two of the 08:25.410 --> 08:28.339 army preman course . That's a big deal , 08:28.920 --> 08:30.940 um an entire day . And so that's 08:30.950 --> 08:33.219 another uh statement by our senior 08:33.229 --> 08:35.285 leaders on how important this is . I 08:35.285 --> 08:37.340 will share with you in a former life 08:37.340 --> 08:39.507 when I was the exo to the army G three 08:39.507 --> 08:41.562 and two and three star generals were 08:41.562 --> 08:43.729 coming in and saying , hey , I want to 08:43.729 --> 08:45.729 get one hour at the preman course , 08:45.729 --> 08:47.729 just one hour . And at the time the 08:47.729 --> 08:49.896 gatekeeper was uh general Joe Anderson 08:49.896 --> 08:52.007 who I love dearly . And uh you had to 08:52.007 --> 08:54.007 be very convincing to get something 08:54.007 --> 08:56.118 past General Anderson if it was going 08:56.118 --> 08:58.285 to come to PC C at the time . Really , 08:58.285 --> 09:00.507 it was General Millie's program . So um 09:00.507 --> 09:02.729 it was , it was a hard sell . We got an 09:02.729 --> 09:04.840 entire day now . So this is , this is 09:04.840 --> 09:06.562 big because we are able to now 09:06.562 --> 09:06.489 influence every future battalion and 09:06.500 --> 09:09.260 brigade command team and we kicked off 09:09.270 --> 09:12.979 the first full H two F day . Last week , 09:12.989 --> 09:15.156 Surgeon General was with me , chief of 09:15.156 --> 09:17.322 chaplains , with , with , with me . Um 09:17.322 --> 09:19.656 started at eight o'clock in the morning , 09:19.656 --> 09:21.767 individuals all come in . This is 377 09:21.767 --> 09:21.390 of them by the way . And we'll do this 09:21.400 --> 09:23.511 seven times a year and they showed up 09:23.511 --> 09:25.567 in their PTS and they get , they get 09:25.567 --> 09:27.567 the deep dive in all five domains . 09:27.567 --> 09:29.678 They do a self assessment on all five 09:29.678 --> 09:31.956 domains . Um It's really , really good , 09:31.956 --> 09:31.080 you're going to hear more about that , 09:31.090 --> 09:33.820 I think later on . Um But I'm glad to 09:33.830 --> 09:35.997 say that we are influencing the future 09:35.997 --> 09:38.052 leaders . And as for the rest of the 09:38.052 --> 09:40.108 army's education on H two F over the 09:40.108 --> 09:42.163 last year , we've made just a ton of 09:42.163 --> 09:44.330 progress as it relates to all forms of 09:44.330 --> 09:46.441 PM E . You're going to see that later 09:46.441 --> 09:46.130 on in a chart that comes up on where 09:46.140 --> 09:48.196 we've , where we've gone with that . 09:48.196 --> 09:50.418 We've pretty much doubled down over the 09:50.418 --> 09:52.473 last year and we are , I think we're 09:52.473 --> 09:54.696 planning on wrapping that up about next 09:54.696 --> 09:53.830 year . So we should have , we should 09:53.840 --> 09:55.951 have it all done for PM E . So that's 09:55.951 --> 09:58.440 good . That's all ncoas , that's all , 09:59.090 --> 10:01.739 that's everything . So to include ASAP , 10:01.750 --> 10:03.750 we'll get it in there eventually as 10:03.750 --> 10:07.169 well . Um H two F is now the proponent 10:07.179 --> 10:09.109 for P three T for pregnancy and 10:09.119 --> 10:11.799 postpartum . And uh I would encourage 10:11.809 --> 10:14.039 you to visit Lieutenant Colonel Najera 10:14.159 --> 10:16.326 and Captain Mayo that are out there on 10:16.326 --> 10:18.548 the booth . Uh They'll be talking about 10:18.548 --> 10:20.659 what we're doing in that space . This 10:20.659 --> 10:20.090 was something frankly that was 10:20.099 --> 10:22.377 neglected for the last couple of years . 10:22.500 --> 10:25.020 Um And so we , we , with an H two F , 10:25.030 --> 10:27.363 it made sense to come to us . And so we , 10:27.363 --> 10:29.474 we scooped it up , we put it into our 10:29.474 --> 10:31.474 doctrine . We hired uh professional 10:31.474 --> 10:33.641 trainers , we've signed up to train 15 10:33.641 --> 10:35.641 installations across the globe this 10:35.641 --> 10:37.863 year and we have thus far trained seven 10:37.863 --> 10:39.697 installations on their program , 10:39.697 --> 10:41.863 certifying their leaders to , to teach 10:41.863 --> 10:44.030 P three t so kudos to the team and the 10:44.030 --> 10:46.086 great work that they've done there . 10:46.086 --> 10:48.308 And along with that , we are also doing 10:48.308 --> 10:48.099 tactical mobility and recovery 10:48.109 --> 10:50.729 mindfulness . Some might recognize that 10:50.739 --> 10:52.739 as yoga , yoga and mindfulness , we 10:52.739 --> 10:54.739 just gave it a little more tactical 10:54.739 --> 10:57.072 flair because sometimes yoga , you know , 10:57.072 --> 10:59.183 for drill sergeants that are a little 10:59.183 --> 11:01.239 bit older , they say really . But if 11:01.239 --> 11:02.961 you're older , like some of us 11:02.961 --> 11:05.183 flexibility is a good thing . Uh And so 11:05.183 --> 11:07.350 we have put that into our doctrine and 11:07.350 --> 11:09.350 now we push that as well . Um Great 11:09.350 --> 11:12.520 initiative and our H two F website , 11:12.679 --> 11:14.679 it's cack enabled now , but we have 11:14.679 --> 11:16.679 finally released it . So Lieutenant 11:16.679 --> 11:18.901 Colonel Randy ready wherever you at and 11:18.901 --> 11:21.012 his team just fantastic work over the 11:21.012 --> 11:23.123 last six months to a year getting our 11:23.123 --> 11:25.235 website put together . That's an army 11:25.235 --> 11:27.179 sponsored website . So this is not 11:27.179 --> 11:29.179 something I'm baking in my basement 11:29.179 --> 11:30.846 here at CIMT . Um It's a very 11:30.846 --> 11:33.012 professional uh website and it has all 11:33.012 --> 11:35.235 the resources that are available to you 11:35.235 --> 11:34.840 and it'll just continue to expand . So 11:34.849 --> 11:36.905 you can click on any domain and deep 11:36.905 --> 11:39.016 dive and go into videos and all kinds 11:39.016 --> 11:41.182 of stuff . So , in fact , our major of 11:41.182 --> 11:41.049 the army just was kind enough to do a 11:41.059 --> 11:43.115 video just prior to coming in here . 11:43.115 --> 11:45.226 And so here very soon you'll see your 11:45.226 --> 11:47.281 video probably on that website and , 11:47.281 --> 11:49.615 and pushing the message that you shared . 11:49.615 --> 11:51.837 The last thing I want to share in terms 11:51.837 --> 11:51.030 of kind of what we're doing now and 11:51.039 --> 11:53.150 what we've done over the last year is 11:53.150 --> 11:55.150 that we are now partnered with Pe O 11:55.150 --> 11:58.169 soldier who so we have a PE O as well . 11:58.599 --> 12:00.543 A good friend of mine , Lieutenant 12:00.543 --> 12:02.599 General Rob Collins , former college 12:02.599 --> 12:04.655 roommate of mine for four years , uh 12:04.655 --> 12:06.877 ensured that we were going to get the , 12:06.877 --> 12:08.932 the best pe O for this business . We 12:08.932 --> 12:11.043 are in the people business for sure . 12:11.043 --> 12:10.739 So pe O soldiers providing our earth 12:10.750 --> 12:12.917 site and where that's really important 12:12.917 --> 12:14.694 is as we look toward continuous 12:14.694 --> 12:16.750 transformation uh within H two F and 12:16.750 --> 12:18.909 the material solutions and as we look 12:18.919 --> 12:20.975 to the future . So one of the larger 12:20.975 --> 12:23.197 initiatives that we're still working is 12:23.197 --> 12:25.419 the H two F data management system . So 12:25.419 --> 12:27.419 again , Doctor Andrew Thompson here 12:27.419 --> 12:26.619 taking the lead from within the 12:26.630 --> 12:28.852 proponent , we're still the proponent . 12:28.852 --> 12:31.130 We just have a pe O to help , you know , 12:31.130 --> 12:31.090 work through the wickets of the 12:31.099 --> 12:33.989 acquisition process . And so , um we're 12:34.000 --> 12:36.056 working that I think it's absolutely 12:36.056 --> 12:38.111 critical . I've shared that I have a 12:38.111 --> 12:40.333 monthly touch point now with the vice . 12:40.333 --> 12:42.389 Um So if , if we want to expand this 12:42.389 --> 12:44.444 system , we've got to have a , if we 12:44.444 --> 12:46.611 want to expand H two F , this is a key 12:46.611 --> 12:48.611 component and this is also where we 12:48.611 --> 12:50.889 need help from industry . Um Right now , 12:50.889 --> 12:53.111 we are working a pilot that is going to 12:53.111 --> 12:56.669 inform uh where we go with a data 12:56.679 --> 12:58.901 management system and what I'm speaking 12:58.901 --> 13:00.679 to is an application and a data 13:00.679 --> 13:02.901 management system . Um , it was an ND A 13:02.901 --> 13:05.123 directed pilot . We're going to do that 13:05.123 --> 13:07.235 starting down at Fort Mo Georgia this 13:07.235 --> 13:09.401 fall . Um , in this case , we actually 13:09.401 --> 13:11.401 did purchase a variety of wearables 13:11.401 --> 13:13.346 that we are going to put on OS A T 13:13.346 --> 13:15.512 soldiers and we're going to track them 13:15.512 --> 13:15.359 as they go through their 20 week , 22 13:15.369 --> 13:17.536 weeks of O SI T . And then we're going 13:17.536 --> 13:19.702 to compare it against the , you know , 13:19.702 --> 13:19.280 units that aren't equipped with that . 13:19.679 --> 13:21.880 Um We have a , we finally have an 13:21.890 --> 13:24.112 interim authority to operate , which is 13:24.112 --> 13:26.223 very exciting . Um And we're going to 13:26.223 --> 13:28.690 do that with Coach B Plus and so that 13:28.700 --> 13:30.811 will inform a lot when we come out of 13:30.811 --> 13:33.929 that pilot . We're going to follow it 13:33.940 --> 13:36.162 up at , at Fort Jackson and we're going 13:36.162 --> 13:38.384 to do another one with basic training . 13:38.384 --> 13:40.607 But then it's at that point , we've got 13:40.607 --> 13:40.570 to really nail down the requirement so 13:40.580 --> 13:42.802 we can have our teammates up there . Pe 13:42.802 --> 13:44.413 O soldiers start to work the 13:44.413 --> 13:46.636 acquisition process for what will be an 13:46.636 --> 13:49.799 army solution for a app and a data 13:49.809 --> 13:52.260 management system . Um We are a company 13:52.270 --> 13:54.437 agnostic , but we know what it is that 13:54.437 --> 13:57.020 we need and we want something that is 13:57.030 --> 14:00.119 going to be able to um allow a soldier 14:00.130 --> 14:03.210 to see themselves a unit commander to 14:03.219 --> 14:05.386 see the unit at the aggregated level . 14:05.386 --> 14:07.552 And we want the army to be able to use 14:07.552 --> 14:09.719 the data to inform larger decisions at 14:09.719 --> 14:11.775 the army level . Um It needs to be , 14:11.775 --> 14:13.941 you know , real time data . What we're 14:13.941 --> 14:15.719 having to do right now is quite 14:15.719 --> 14:17.719 laborious in terms of compiling our 14:17.719 --> 14:20.299 return on investment . Um And so it's , 14:20.309 --> 14:22.365 this is really , really critical . I 14:22.365 --> 14:24.476 would also offer that in order for us 14:24.476 --> 14:26.698 to expand and accelerate H two F . It's 14:26.698 --> 14:28.809 one thing for us to field these teams 14:28.809 --> 14:28.359 that are only going to take care of a 14:28.369 --> 14:30.425 portion of the active component when 14:30.425 --> 14:32.591 it's all said and done as it currently 14:32.591 --> 14:34.702 sits , that only takes care of 47% of 14:34.702 --> 14:34.419 the active duty after we field 100 and 14:34.429 --> 14:36.429 11 teams . But we got to get to the 14:36.429 --> 14:38.540 rest of the army , hence the interest 14:38.540 --> 14:40.596 by the senior leaders to see what it 14:40.596 --> 14:42.707 would take to expand it . But then we 14:42.707 --> 14:44.762 want to expand it in compo two compo 14:44.762 --> 14:44.469 three . Despite the pilots that they're 14:44.479 --> 14:46.423 doing and funding that they've got 14:46.423 --> 14:48.646 coming and consider the potential . All 14:48.646 --> 14:50.757 right , just consider the potential . 14:50.757 --> 14:52.923 If , depending on the business model , 14:52.923 --> 14:55.146 depending on the security requirement , 14:55.146 --> 14:57.312 we could expand this to our families , 14:57.312 --> 14:59.640 our civilian teammates and our soldiers 14:59.650 --> 15:02.890 for life that would drive down medical 15:02.900 --> 15:05.530 costs , va costs . The return on 15:05.539 --> 15:08.280 investment potential is gigantic . And 15:08.289 --> 15:10.345 that's what we want for our soldiers 15:10.409 --> 15:12.576 and that's what we want for all of our 15:12.576 --> 15:14.687 teammates . So that's the potential . 15:14.900 --> 15:17.122 It's all precision , but that's I think 15:17.122 --> 15:19.178 that's the vision that we should all 15:19.178 --> 15:21.344 strive towards as we look at a app and 15:21.344 --> 15:23.456 a data management system . Imagine if 15:23.456 --> 15:25.567 you're a recruiter , you are in cadet 15:25.567 --> 15:27.900 command , you're an LNO in some country , 15:27.900 --> 15:27.489 you should be able to pull up on your 15:27.500 --> 15:29.722 phone and see what you want to do for a 15:29.722 --> 15:31.889 workout video . Examples of it . Track 15:31.889 --> 15:34.000 your progress , the whole enchilada . 15:34.000 --> 15:36.222 All right . So that's , that's where we 15:36.222 --> 15:35.869 want to go and we want to be able to 15:36.159 --> 15:38.609 move on that as quickly as we can . I 15:38.619 --> 15:40.500 will plug Burger General Chris 15:40.510 --> 15:43.140 Schneider , who is the pe O uh a PE O 15:43.150 --> 15:45.770 soldier and uh Mr Tony Lynn , who is 15:45.780 --> 15:47.891 our program manager . If I don't know 15:47.891 --> 15:50.002 what representation we have from pe O 15:50.002 --> 15:52.224 here , but I mentioned their names . So 15:52.224 --> 15:52.059 you don't call my phone , you call 15:52.070 --> 15:54.292 their phone because they will also have 15:54.292 --> 15:56.292 oversight of all of our contracts . 15:56.469 --> 16:00.210 There's a hand right there . Ok . 16:00.219 --> 16:02.309 Yes . Um They have oversight of our 16:02.320 --> 16:05.739 contracting when H two F started , it 16:05.750 --> 16:07.639 was an occupational therapist , a 16:07.639 --> 16:09.639 physical therapist and a registered 16:09.639 --> 16:11.583 dietitian that drafted the largest 16:11.583 --> 16:13.639 personnel contract in the history of 16:13.639 --> 16:16.309 trade and they did great work . But my 16:16.320 --> 16:19.229 God , we need pe O soldier . All right . 16:19.469 --> 16:21.469 Um Just one piece on doctrine . Um 16:21.479 --> 16:23.701 We're , we , we , we got the capability 16:23.701 --> 16:25.812 to do the rapid revisions . Now on FM 16:25.812 --> 16:27.923 7-22 and here soon we're going to put 16:27.923 --> 16:31.010 out a TP 7-22 0.03 . So you already got 16:31.020 --> 16:32.964 the , the 01 , the 02 , that's all 16:32.964 --> 16:35.187 things related . AC FT and everything . 16:35.187 --> 16:37.242 Um Now the , the 0.03 will be coming 16:37.242 --> 16:39.409 out . That is H two F performance team 16:39.409 --> 16:41.298 operations . All right , that's a 16:41.298 --> 16:43.187 user's guide . It's an instructor 16:43.187 --> 16:45.242 manual for units . So that should be 16:45.242 --> 16:47.242 one that is well received . So I'll 16:47.242 --> 16:49.298 just kind of pause there or close up 16:49.298 --> 16:51.520 here , tremendous amount of work that's 16:51.520 --> 16:51.280 been done by the directorate and our 16:51.289 --> 16:53.400 teammates and , and it's not just uh 16:53.419 --> 16:55.475 those of us here in the Fort Eustace 16:55.475 --> 16:57.697 area , it's a tremendous amount of work 16:57.697 --> 16:59.863 that's been done by all of you sitting 16:59.863 --> 17:01.752 in this audience and all of those 17:01.752 --> 17:03.975 teammates that you have that are spread 17:03.975 --> 17:06.086 across our army . We still got a ways 17:06.086 --> 17:07.863 to go , everybody's part of the 17:07.863 --> 17:10.086 solution . Um Trust that we learn every 17:10.086 --> 17:12.308 bit as much from you all than as you do 17:12.308 --> 17:14.530 from us . I mean , it's more so at this 17:14.530 --> 17:16.641 point , we are all just listening and 17:16.641 --> 17:18.697 watching and gaining from what it is 17:18.697 --> 17:20.863 that is being done under the direction 17:20.863 --> 17:22.919 of brigade commanders out there that 17:22.919 --> 17:24.919 have innovative ideas that are just 17:24.919 --> 17:26.919 making incredible things take place 17:26.919 --> 17:29.141 across our army . So , um I hope you're 17:29.141 --> 17:31.419 able to gain a lot from this symposium . 17:31.419 --> 17:31.170 I hope you take a lot back to your 17:31.180 --> 17:33.579 units and to your businesses out there . 17:33.780 --> 17:35.760 Uh This truly is a team sport it's 17:35.770 --> 17:37.992 focused on making better war fighters . 17:37.992 --> 17:40.214 And after all , that's what this is all 17:40.214 --> 17:42.270 about , it's about making better war 17:42.270 --> 17:42.660 fighters .
