and Training Command San Diego held a

00:09.257 --> 00:11.201
Master Chief Philip Woods relieved

00:11.201 --> 00:13.423
Command Master Chief Adolfo Gonzalez as

00:13.423 --> 00:15.534
the commands senior enlisted leader .

00:15.534 --> 00:17.701
What I've been most proud of during my

00:17.701 --> 00:17.399
entire time here as the command Master

00:17.399 --> 00:20.620
Chief of NMRTC San Diego , uh , has to

00:20.620 --> 00:23.780
be the staff . This is the finest

00:23.780 --> 00:25.891
medical center in all of the military

00:25.891 --> 00:28.113
health system . And it's not because of

00:28.113 --> 00:30.280
our state of the art facilities or our

00:30.280 --> 00:32.391
state of the art equipment , but it's

00:32.391 --> 00:34.391
really because of the compassionate

00:34.391 --> 00:36.613
team of dedicated professionals that we

00:36.613 --> 00:38.669
have here on board . Time after time

00:38.669 --> 00:40.669
they've been able to deliver on the

00:40.669 --> 00:42.836
mission . You're talking about medical

00:42.836 --> 00:44.669
force generation delivering high

00:44.669 --> 00:46.391
quality health care to 250,000

00:46.391 --> 00:48.613
beneficiaries and deployments the world

00:48.613 --> 00:50.529
over . I've had the privilege of

00:50.529 --> 00:52.790
serving with Phil Woods before . I .

00:52.930 --> 00:55.290
Recognize his leadership ability , his

00:55.290 --> 00:58.049
passion , his integrity , and his

00:58.049 --> 01:00.250
aptitude in being able to quickly

01:00.250 --> 01:02.306
assimilate with this high performing

01:02.306 --> 01:04.361
team we have here in Balboa and lead

01:04.361 --> 01:06.569
them on to the next chapter of this

01:06.569 --> 01:07.779
storied legacy .

01:10.370 --> 01:12.769
I'm seeing what this team is capable of .

01:13.129 --> 01:15.330
The command mast chief is the chief

01:15.330 --> 01:19.330
liaison of all enlisted . Our job is to

01:19.330 --> 01:21.552
make sure that we have the pulse of not

01:21.552 --> 01:23.809
only the crew , but the command as a

01:23.809 --> 01:27.089
whole . One of the things that I want

01:27.089 --> 01:28.922
to bring us back to is getting .

01:29.025 --> 01:31.224
Excited about being not only medical

01:31.224 --> 01:33.504
staff but a corpsman and just operating

01:33.504 --> 01:35.745
in this environment . We are the ones

01:35.745 --> 01:37.912
that they call on when it's time to go

01:37.912 --> 01:39.864
forward and those marines , those

01:39.864 --> 01:41.808
sailors , whatever team needs us ,

01:42.025 --> 01:44.192
