points is an approach to inventing , 

9
00:00:26,726 --> 00:00:28,670
innovates something entirely new , 

10
00:00:28,670 --> 00:00:30,281
improve on something already 

11
00:00:30,281 --> 00:00:32,559
established or integrate several ideas , 

12
00:00:32,559 --> 00:00:34,559
products or processes rendering the 

13
00:00:34,559 --> 00:00:36,670
former completely obsolete . The Navy 

14
00:00:36,670 --> 00:00:38,726
Reserve is aggressively transforming 

15
00:00:38,726 --> 00:00:40,948
and modernizing , pivoting from decades 

16
00:00:40,948 --> 00:00:42,559
of land based , non maritime 

17
00:00:42,559 --> 00:00:44,970
contributions to instead later focus on 

18
00:00:44,970 --> 00:00:46,803
warfighting readiness to address 

19
00:00:46,803 --> 00:00:48,637
today's security environment and 

20
00:00:48,637 --> 00:00:50,637

challenges and roadblocks in your daily 

24
00:00:56,692 --> 00:00:58,914
lives are valuable sources of ideas for 

25
00:00:58,914 --> 00:01:01,130
change . I three way points challenges 

26
00:01:01,130 --> 00:01:03,730
the entire U . S . Navy to propose new 

27
00:01:03,740 --> 00:01:05,907

00:01:05,907 --> 00:01:07,962
operate . Coming up , our presenters 

29
00:01:07,962 --> 00:01:09,907

83
00:02:59,162 --> 00:03:01,329
introduction from Vice Admiral must in 

84
00:03:01,329 --> 00:03:03,551
thank you for joining us . We are about 

85
00:03:03,551 --> 00:03:05,662
to kick off the inaugural I three way 

86
00:03:05,662 --> 00:03:07,718
points where the Navy Reserve Forces 

87
00:03:07,718 --> 00:03:09,440
going to innovate , improve or 

88
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:11,551
integrate on those elements are gonna 

89
00:03:11,551 --> 00:03:13,662
help us transform to be ready for the 

90
00:03:13,662 --> 00:03:15,884
future . We've got five contestants and 

91
00:03:15,884 --> 00:03:17,940
we're very excited now to hear their 

92
00:03:17,940 --> 00:03:19,996
stories and hear how they think they 

93
00:03:19,996 --> 00:03:22,107
can help us . and more importantly we 

94
00:03:22,107 --> 00:03:24,107
had 107 submissions , many of which 

95
00:03:24,107 --> 00:03:23,430
were going to implement even though 

96
00:03:23,430 --> 00:03:25,708
they're not presenting today with that . 

97
00:03:25,708 --> 00:03:27,486
Thanks again for being here and 

98
00:03:27,486 --> 00:03:29,708
hopefully you learn something now . Our 

99
00:03:29,708 --> 00:03:31,652
first presenter is Commander scott 

100
00:03:31,652 --> 00:03:33,486
Miracle . Coming to us live from 

101
00:03:33,486 --> 00:03:35,597
Norfolk on the deck of the USs Bataan 

102
00:03:35,597 --> 00:03:37,819
Commander . It's great to see you and I 

103
00:03:37,819 --> 00:03:39,986
see that you're on the deck of the USs 

104
00:03:39,986 --> 00:03:41,874
Bataan . We know many great ideas 

105
00:03:41,874 --> 00:03:43,930
originate on the big five there . So 

106
00:03:43,930 --> 00:03:46,097
very much appreciate your submission . 

107
00:03:46,097 --> 00:03:48,319
We're all interested here to understand 

108
00:03:48,319 --> 00:03:47,710
a little bit about your vision you want 

109
00:03:47,710 --> 00:03:49,932
to share with us what you're thinking . 

110
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:53,551
Yeah , thanks . It's great to be here 

111
00:03:53,551 --> 00:03:55,718
from the flight deck of the baton here 

112
00:03:55,718 --> 00:03:58,710
in sunny Norfolk . So I would say I 

113
00:03:58,710 --> 00:04:00,877
don't have an innovative idea but it's 

114
00:04:00,877 --> 00:04:03,043
more along the improved part of that I 

115
00:04:03,043 --> 00:04:06,120
three way points Every year , about 

116
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:09,280
2500 sailors transition from active 

117
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:11,224
component to the reserve component 

118
00:04:11,224 --> 00:04:12,947
bringing with them a wealth of 

119
00:04:12,947 --> 00:04:16,570
knowledge , experience and skills as 

120
00:04:16,570 --> 00:04:19,170
they transition . One of the things 

121
00:04:19,170 --> 00:04:22,300
that I think we can do much better is 

122
00:04:22,300 --> 00:04:24,356
to remove some of the administrative 

123
00:04:24,356 --> 00:04:26,522
barriers during the transition process 

124
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:28,762
and more seamlessly bring that 

125
00:04:28,762 --> 00:04:32,080
experience from active to reserve and 

126
00:04:32,090 --> 00:04:34,257
focusing on the war fighting aspect of 

127
00:04:34,257 --> 00:04:36,479
our mission , our number one priority . 

128
00:04:36,479 --> 00:04:40,140
Our only priority , there's two things 

129
00:04:40,140 --> 00:04:42,700
I think we can do that would assist in 

130
00:04:42,700 --> 00:04:46,020
that transition one . Let members keep 

131
00:04:46,020 --> 00:04:49,570
their active component , reserve their 

132
00:04:49,570 --> 00:04:51,459
active component ID cards as they 

133
00:04:51,459 --> 00:04:53,710
transition to the reserve . There's no 

134
00:04:53,710 --> 00:04:55,877
reason why they ought to turn it in on 

135
00:04:55,877 --> 00:04:59,120
day one on their last day of active 

136
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,420
duty to only turn around and get a new 

137
00:05:02,420 --> 00:05:05,780
one in the reserve component . Just the 

138
00:05:05,780 --> 00:05:09,090
cards alone would save about $300,000 . 

139
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,351
The second thing I think we can do is 

140
00:05:12,351 --> 00:05:16,190
let members keep their email addresses 

141
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:18,200
as they move from active to reserve 

142
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:20,422
component . So they have a link as they 

143
00:05:20,422 --> 00:05:23,960
move and can access KAc sites , 

144
00:05:24,840 --> 00:05:26,840
they can communicate with their new 

145
00:05:26,840 --> 00:05:30,770
units over official email . So I think 

146
00:05:30,810 --> 00:05:32,960
those two simple ideas would help 

147
00:05:34,100 --> 00:05:37,240
improve that transition process and 

148
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,462
ease the burden on already overburdened 

149
00:05:39,462 --> 00:05:42,330
ID card labs and reserve center in six 

150
00:05:42,390 --> 00:05:46,090
personnel . Pretty simple idea . But I 

151
00:05:46,090 --> 00:05:48,034
think long overdue , just like the 

152
00:05:48,034 --> 00:05:50,146
single pay account that we're working 

153
00:05:50,146 --> 00:05:52,312
on . Thank you . Fantastic . Alright , 

154
00:05:52,312 --> 00:05:54,646
I'll take the first question here again . 

155
00:05:54,646 --> 00:05:56,701
I very much appreciate your input on 

156
00:05:56,701 --> 00:05:58,923
this . You mentioned a buzz phrase that 

157
00:05:58,923 --> 00:06:00,979
is very important to me which is the 

158
00:06:00,979 --> 00:06:02,701
link explicitly to warfighting 

159
00:06:02,701 --> 00:06:04,423
readiness . So can you help me 

160
00:06:04,423 --> 00:06:06,534
understand what the linkages here and 

161
00:06:06,534 --> 00:06:08,646
how you quantify the improvement that 

162
00:06:08,646 --> 00:06:10,701
will generate additional warfighting 

163
00:06:10,701 --> 00:06:10,380
readiness for our Navy and for our Navy 

164
00:06:10,380 --> 00:06:13,900
Reserve Force . Yes 

165
00:06:13,900 --> 00:06:16,660
sir . I think just as you look at the 

166
00:06:16,660 --> 00:06:19,900
transition process personally as a unit 

167
00:06:19,900 --> 00:06:23,090
leader , I've seen probably 

168
00:06:23,100 --> 00:06:27,060
10-15 active component transitions 

169
00:06:27,840 --> 00:06:31,820
Over the last two years and I'd say 

170
00:06:31,830 --> 00:06:35,720
many times that process Takes 2 3 4 

171
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:37,776
months when it should really be much 

172
00:06:37,776 --> 00:06:41,590
much faster . Uh So 

173
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:43,044
by reducing some of those 

174
00:06:43,044 --> 00:06:46,990
administrative burdens by eliminating 

175
00:06:46,990 --> 00:06:49,560
the need for people from the reserve 

176
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:51,920
unit to take time out of what they're 

177
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:54,850
doing to go members onto base 

178
00:06:55,740 --> 00:06:57,907
to get an I . D . Card . Being able to 

179
00:06:57,907 --> 00:06:59,962
have them come integrate sooner with 

180
00:06:59,962 --> 00:07:02,018
the unit and the warfighting related 

181
00:07:02,018 --> 00:07:04,184
training that we're doing whether it's 

182
00:07:04,184 --> 00:07:06,180
maintenance at the air wings or 

183
00:07:06,190 --> 00:07:08,720
operational level of war training at 

184
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,120
some of the numbered fleet commands . I 

185
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:13,470
think reducing the admin gets them to 

186
00:07:13,470 --> 00:07:16,560
that training sooner and helps them not 

187
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,710
feel like they're going through boot 

188
00:07:19,710 --> 00:07:22,010
camp all over again . That's a little 

189
00:07:22,010 --> 00:07:24,470
bit of an exaggeration . But getting 

190
00:07:24,470 --> 00:07:26,920
them into that reserve unit sooner , 

191
00:07:27,850 --> 00:07:30,017
tracking what you're saying there . So 

192
00:07:30,017 --> 00:07:32,170
I think given that that system is a 

193
00:07:32,170 --> 00:07:34,170
deer system , I think there's a dog 

194
00:07:34,170 --> 00:07:36,503
dependency that we need to explore also . 

195
00:07:36,503 --> 00:07:38,503
But I love where your head is . And 

196
00:07:38,503 --> 00:07:38,130
most importantly I want to compliment 

197
00:07:38,130 --> 00:07:40,297
you on that ball cap . I don't know if 

198
00:07:40,297 --> 00:07:42,297
you can see us but I've got Admiral 

199
00:07:42,297 --> 00:07:44,130
louis here , former second Fleet 

200
00:07:44,130 --> 00:07:46,297
Commander that stood up the fleet that 

201
00:07:46,297 --> 00:07:48,519
you are now a part of . So we'll get to 

202
00:07:48,519 --> 00:07:50,630
him in a moment . But first force you 

203
00:07:50,630 --> 00:07:50,200
have any questions for Commander . 

204
00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:52,533
Miracle . Thank you sir . Thank you sir . 

205
00:07:52,533 --> 00:07:54,589
Hey Commander . Good morning looking 

206
00:07:54,589 --> 00:07:56,700
good . They're looking sharp . Here's 

207
00:07:56,700 --> 00:07:58,700
some grinding behind you there . So 

208
00:07:58,700 --> 00:08:00,811
some maintenance going on too . Huh ? 

209
00:08:00,811 --> 00:08:02,811
Maintenance , some fire drills this 

210
00:08:02,811 --> 00:08:04,867
morning . It's good to see all these 

211
00:08:04,867 --> 00:08:04,770
guys running around getting ready for 

212
00:08:04,770 --> 00:08:07,048
deployment . Outstanding . Outstanding . 

213
00:08:07,048 --> 00:08:09,270
Well , sir , I got one question for you 

214
00:08:09,270 --> 00:08:11,326
here . What are the options that you 

215
00:08:11,326 --> 00:08:14,220
see that can improve the active and to 

216
00:08:14,230 --> 00:08:16,160
reserve transition , sir , 

217
00:08:19,710 --> 00:08:21,960
Maybe one other option that I can think 

218
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:25,960
of is some kind of 

219
00:08:26,740 --> 00:08:29,320
email alert or automated email that 

220
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:31,376
goes to unit leadership when they're 

221
00:08:31,376 --> 00:08:34,460
getting new members right now . I'll be 

222
00:08:34,460 --> 00:08:36,571
honest sometimes the first indication 

223
00:08:36,571 --> 00:08:38,738
we have of somebody coming to the unit 

224
00:08:39,550 --> 00:08:41,772
is when they show up on the unit muster 

225
00:08:41,772 --> 00:08:44,770
for a drill weekend and we haven't had 

226
00:08:44,770 --> 00:08:48,390
any pre knowledge of their coming . The 

227
00:08:48,390 --> 00:08:50,612
other thing that I think I've seen that 

228
00:08:50,612 --> 00:08:53,030
we could do better is where we assign 

229
00:08:53,030 --> 00:08:56,600
members initially . I know my last unit 

230
00:08:56,610 --> 00:08:59,500
submarine group too . We had a lot of 

231
00:08:59,500 --> 00:09:01,850
people get assigned to an operations 

232
00:09:01,850 --> 00:09:03,628
unit that were maintenance type 

233
00:09:03,628 --> 00:09:06,070
personnel . And so we had to take a 

234
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,900
couple of months to do some some true 

235
00:09:08,900 --> 00:09:10,733
it changes and get them from the 

236
00:09:10,740 --> 00:09:13,170
operations unit into the maintenance 

237
00:09:13,170 --> 00:09:15,860
unit . So reducing 

238
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:18,910
time that people are on an I . A . P . 

239
00:09:18,910 --> 00:09:22,450
Status as well . Uh working to 

240
00:09:22,450 --> 00:09:25,130
better direct assign them into a unit I 

241
00:09:25,130 --> 00:09:27,352
think that would that would also help . 

242
00:09:27,352 --> 00:09:29,408
So they don't have to come by a pita 

243
00:09:29,408 --> 00:09:31,519
unit and potentially end up having to 

244
00:09:31,519 --> 00:09:33,519
switch units within three months of 

245
00:09:33,519 --> 00:09:36,800
arriving to do the whole j apply thing 

246
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:40,090
and then switch units . Sure . Great . 

247
00:09:40,090 --> 00:09:42,257
Great . Thanks a lot that sir . Thanks 

248
00:09:42,257 --> 00:09:45,260
a lot sir and pass it over to you sir . 

249
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:50,550
So commander . Good morning . Um thank 

250
00:09:50,550 --> 00:09:52,550
you very much for joining us as the 

251
00:09:52,550 --> 00:09:54,910
business guy here . I guess I'll ask a 

252
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:57,640
couple of questions . Part a would be . 

253
00:09:57,650 --> 00:09:59,660
How did you come up with the cost 

254
00:09:59,660 --> 00:10:03,510
estimate of 300,000 ? Uh Is there 

255
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:05,900
a return on investment on that or a 

256
00:10:05,910 --> 00:10:08,077
payback period as we would refer to it 

257
00:10:08,077 --> 00:10:09,410
in the business world . 

258
00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:14,318
Hey thanks thanks for the question sir . 

259
00:10:15,170 --> 00:10:17,960
I came up with a 300,000 by multiplying 

260
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,250
the 2500 . Active to reserve component 

261
00:10:21,250 --> 00:10:23,417
members . That would get to keep their 

262
00:10:23,417 --> 00:10:26,890
ID card by the cost of issuing a new ID 

263
00:10:26,890 --> 00:10:30,590
card , Google search . I saw 

264
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,710
about $132 per 

265
00:10:33,710 --> 00:10:37,450
card . I think that was on a sealift 

266
00:10:37,450 --> 00:10:40,720
command website . So I don't have an 

267
00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:42,831
exact figure but I used about 100 and 

268
00:10:42,831 --> 00:10:46,460
$20 for an I . D . Card times the 2500 

269
00:10:47,330 --> 00:10:50,820
Would give about 300,000 . Hey scott . 

270
00:10:50,830 --> 00:10:53,390
Good morning . The so you mentioned 

271
00:10:53,390 --> 00:10:56,160
earlier about policy so what 

272
00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:59,880
specifically is the policy that you 

273
00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:03,400
would need to to try to get changed and 

274
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:06,320
how do you go about that ? Well sir , I 

275
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:08,376
actually don't know that . I haven't 

276
00:11:08,376 --> 00:11:10,760
been able to find a specific policy but 

277
00:11:11,140 --> 00:11:13,460
during a prep session I had for this , 

278
00:11:13,470 --> 00:11:16,060
I was told that there is a joint policy 

279
00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:19,900
that requires the turn in of the ID 

280
00:11:19,900 --> 00:11:22,920
card . When I went on to cast doubt 

281
00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:25,130
mill , I couldn't find anything there 

282
00:11:25,130 --> 00:11:28,040
that specifically required that . It 

283
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:30,151
just talked about changing things and 

284
00:11:30,151 --> 00:11:32,550
Deers when changing from one status to 

285
00:11:32,550 --> 00:11:36,330
another . Um So I'll admit I'm a little 

286
00:11:36,330 --> 00:11:38,360
bit ignorant on the specific policy 

287
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:40,360
that might need to be changed . But 

288
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:42,527
I've been told there would be a policy 

289
00:11:42,527 --> 00:11:44,471
change required and would probably 

290
00:11:44,471 --> 00:11:46,693
require some interaction with the other 

291
00:11:46,693 --> 00:11:48,916
services . You know , it's an admirable 

292
00:11:48,916 --> 00:11:52,180
improvement upon the system . But you 

293
00:11:52,180 --> 00:11:55,250
know , to implement this , I think you 

294
00:11:55,250 --> 00:11:58,230
need to get after it , get after the 

295
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:01,010
specifics of the policy and own it . I 

296
00:12:01,010 --> 00:12:03,250
mean that's kind of your recommendation 

297
00:12:03,260 --> 00:12:06,610
is you gotta own it and then you get 

298
00:12:06,610 --> 00:12:08,832
after . That's what that's what I would 

299
00:12:08,832 --> 00:12:11,720
recommend to you here . This is 

300
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:13,640
certainly an improvement upon and 

301
00:12:13,650 --> 00:12:15,600
ultimately it improves warfighting 

302
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:19,060
readiness to have sailors uh and 

303
00:12:19,070 --> 00:12:21,820
others ready to fight , do the mission 

304
00:12:21,830 --> 00:12:24,160
without all the administrative queef . 

305
00:12:24,540 --> 00:12:27,030
So absolutely need to do that . But 

306
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:30,800
it's a good proposal and one I think 

307
00:12:30,810 --> 00:12:33,360
is worth getting after . Thanks . 

308
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:37,207
Awesome commander . Listen , thank you 

309
00:12:37,207 --> 00:12:39,429
for your time . Thank you for the great 

310
00:12:39,429 --> 00:12:41,651
submission on this one . I'm gonna work 

311
00:12:41,651 --> 00:12:43,818
with my N one staff that can work from 

312
00:12:43,818 --> 00:12:45,984
the echelon . One perspective to drive 

313
00:12:45,984 --> 00:12:45,820
this at the same time , I can work at 

314
00:12:45,820 --> 00:12:48,390
the D . O . D . Level ultimately , you 

315
00:12:48,390 --> 00:12:50,334
know , we're gonna need to talk to 

316
00:12:50,334 --> 00:12:52,279
folks just outside of Navy Reserve 

317
00:12:52,279 --> 00:12:54,360
outside of Navy to implement this . 

318
00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:57,560
That said , I am equally eager as you 

319
00:12:57,560 --> 00:12:59,449
heard Admiral louis talk about to 

320
00:12:59,449 --> 00:13:01,282
eliminate the inefficiencies and 

321
00:13:01,282 --> 00:13:03,980
frankly the dead time between status 

322
00:13:03,980 --> 00:13:06,990
changes which in the aggregate could be 

323
00:13:06,990 --> 00:13:09,130
an achilles heel for the readiness of 

324
00:13:09,130 --> 00:13:11,130
the Reserve force if called upon to 

325
00:13:11,130 --> 00:13:13,352
mobilize in mass . So anyway , listen , 

326
00:13:13,352 --> 00:13:15,574
love where your head is . Thank you for 

327
00:13:15,574 --> 00:13:17,741
your time . Please give our regards to 

328
00:13:17,741 --> 00:13:17,160
the folks on the waterfront there and 

329
00:13:17,170 --> 00:13:19,392
look forward to seeing you face to face 

330
00:13:19,392 --> 00:13:21,920
at some point . Mm Alright , thank you . 

331
00:13:21,930 --> 00:13:24,360
Roger that . Mhm 

332
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:29,230
mhm I'm backstage in the 

333
00:13:29,230 --> 00:13:31,286
green room with our next presenter , 

334
00:13:31,286 --> 00:13:33,174
Lieutenant brian a tornado . What 

335
00:13:33,174 --> 00:13:35,286
motivated you to present this idea to 

336
00:13:35,286 --> 00:13:37,286
the judges ? So I came up with this 

337
00:13:37,286 --> 00:13:39,508
idea during the surge main mobilization 

338
00:13:39,508 --> 00:13:41,841
in 2020 , it had bounced around my head , 

339
00:13:41,841 --> 00:13:43,841
I thought about what to do and then 

340
00:13:43,841 --> 00:13:45,841
finally when the competition came I 

341
00:13:45,841 --> 00:13:47,841
knew I wanted to submit it . So I'm 

342
00:13:47,841 --> 00:13:49,841
happy that it got out there and I'm 

343
00:13:49,841 --> 00:13:49,020
looking forward to the response from 

344
00:13:49,020 --> 00:13:51,280
the judges . Well we're happy to have 

345
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:52,891
you here . Good luck on your 

346
00:13:52,891 --> 00:13:53,891
presentation . 

347
00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:11,618
Vice Admiral must thank you for 

348
00:14:11,618 --> 00:14:13,729
inviting me today . Excellent . Great 

349
00:14:13,729 --> 00:14:15,951
to see lT We're very interested to hear 

350
00:14:15,951 --> 00:14:15,840
what you have to say . Thanks and 

351
00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:18,062
thanks to the rest of the panelists for 

352
00:14:18,062 --> 00:14:19,951
joining us . It's a distinguished 

353
00:14:19,951 --> 00:14:22,062
Panelist group . Thank you . So I'm a 

354
00:14:22,062 --> 00:14:24,230
reservist in the navy and the unit I'm 

355
00:14:24,230 --> 00:14:26,397
assigned to is surgery in sacramento . 

356
00:14:26,397 --> 00:14:28,619
The surge main units support the public 

357
00:14:28,619 --> 00:14:30,841
shipyards by sending trained reservists 

358
00:14:30,841 --> 00:14:32,897
to augment the civilian personnel at 

359
00:14:32,897 --> 00:14:35,140
the shipyards . 2020 was the big year 

360
00:14:35,140 --> 00:14:38,630
for us . We sent over 1300 sailors to 

361
00:14:38,630 --> 00:14:40,686
support the shipyards when they were 

362
00:14:40,686 --> 00:14:42,852
struggling with COVID . This is why we 

363
00:14:42,852 --> 00:14:44,963
exist . It was a very exciting time . 

364
00:14:44,963 --> 00:14:47,074
But there was a group of sailors that 

365
00:14:47,074 --> 00:14:48,630
did not participate in this 

366
00:14:48,630 --> 00:14:50,797
mobilization . Sailors who were in the 

367
00:14:50,797 --> 00:14:52,574
surgery news who happened to be 

368
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:55,360
civilians at the shipyard . We're not 

369
00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:57,527
mobilized . And I remember thinking at 

370
00:14:57,527 --> 00:14:59,693
the time if they weren't mobilized for 

371
00:14:59,693 --> 00:15:01,638
this , why do we have them ? We're 

372
00:15:01,638 --> 00:15:03,749
never going to use them . I thought a 

373
00:15:03,749 --> 00:15:05,860
little bit about it a little more and 

374
00:15:05,860 --> 00:15:08,082
there was a lesson in history for me in 

375
00:15:08,082 --> 00:15:10,560
World War Two Service Squadron Chen 

376
00:15:10,570 --> 00:15:12,860
supported hundreds of ships forward 

377
00:15:12,860 --> 00:15:14,916
deployed and fighting in the pacific 

378
00:15:14,916 --> 00:15:17,270
for months at a time . They did this 

379
00:15:17,270 --> 00:15:20,050
with expeditionary maintenance and 

380
00:15:20,060 --> 00:15:21,782
expeditionary repair . This is 

381
00:15:21,782 --> 00:15:23,949
something that Vice Admiral Muhsin has 

382
00:15:23,949 --> 00:15:26,116
already said he wants our community to 

383
00:15:26,116 --> 00:15:28,171
be able to do . This is why you need 

384
00:15:28,171 --> 00:15:30,338
those sailors who have skills from the 

385
00:15:30,338 --> 00:15:32,671
civilian shipyard . That is the big one , 

386
00:15:32,671 --> 00:15:34,782
that's why we need them . I think the 

387
00:15:34,782 --> 00:15:37,004
Navy should double down on this type of 

388
00:15:37,004 --> 00:15:39,227
sailor . We should institute or request 

389
00:15:39,227 --> 00:15:42,070
the authorizations to institute a Navy 

390
00:15:42,070 --> 00:15:44,292
Reserve technician program , similar to 

391
00:15:44,292 --> 00:15:46,514
the Air Reserve technician program that 

392
00:15:46,514 --> 00:15:48,920
the Air Force uses according to statute . 

393
00:15:48,980 --> 00:15:51,220
These people would be civilians in the 

394
00:15:51,220 --> 00:15:53,053
shipyard . But as a condition of 

395
00:15:53,053 --> 00:15:55,276
employment also has to be reservists in 

396
00:15:55,276 --> 00:15:58,320
the Navy . Part of the statute also 

397
00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:00,900
claims that they have to be engaged in 

398
00:16:00,900 --> 00:16:03,122
the mission of the unit . Whatever that 

399
00:16:03,122 --> 00:16:04,900
is . In this case , it would be 

400
00:16:04,900 --> 00:16:07,090
maintaining ships and helping to train 

401
00:16:07,090 --> 00:16:09,870
sailors . If we had about 200 of these 

402
00:16:09,870 --> 00:16:11,926
Navy reserve technicians , you would 

403
00:16:11,926 --> 00:16:14,610
have enough to put Roughly two in every 

404
00:16:14,610 --> 00:16:16,666
shop and every shipyard that surgery 

405
00:16:16,666 --> 00:16:18,600
supports . And then when the 

406
00:16:18,610 --> 00:16:20,832
traditional reservists , the surge main 

407
00:16:20,832 --> 00:16:22,832
sailors go through for their annual 

408
00:16:22,832 --> 00:16:25,110
training , they would always have an N . 

409
00:16:25,110 --> 00:16:27,166
R . T . To reach out to to help them 

410
00:16:27,166 --> 00:16:29,443
with squalls , help them with training , 

411
00:16:29,443 --> 00:16:31,721
understand how to do the hands on work . 

412
00:16:31,721 --> 00:16:33,888
And then of course if it comes time to 

413
00:16:33,888 --> 00:16:35,943
hit the mobilization button And send 

414
00:16:35,943 --> 00:16:37,943
everyone forward , you'll have this 

415
00:16:37,943 --> 00:16:39,999
cadre of about 200 personnel who are 

416
00:16:39,999 --> 00:16:42,820
very well trained in the ways of doing 

417
00:16:42,820 --> 00:16:44,542
depot level , maintenance very 

418
00:16:44,542 --> 00:16:46,709
difficult maintenance that are forward 

419
00:16:46,709 --> 00:16:48,764
to help with maintenance , a field . 

420
00:16:48,764 --> 00:16:50,764
You would also supplement that with 

421
00:16:50,764 --> 00:16:52,820
2200 traditional reservists . That's 

422
00:16:52,820 --> 00:16:54,598
roughly the size of the surgery 

423
00:16:54,598 --> 00:16:57,030
community . Now who bring a wide 

424
00:16:57,030 --> 00:16:59,320
variety of skills to the table . Not 

425
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:01,542
only will they have good knowledge from 

426
00:17:01,542 --> 00:17:03,487
the shipyard experience from their 

427
00:17:03,487 --> 00:17:05,542
annual training , but they do a wide 

428
00:17:05,542 --> 00:17:07,820
variety of tasks in their civilian job . 

429
00:17:07,820 --> 00:17:10,110
That combination of a core of personnel 

430
00:17:10,120 --> 00:17:11,910
who are trained and skilled and 

431
00:17:11,910 --> 00:17:13,910
shipyard maintenance at the highest 

432
00:17:13,910 --> 00:17:16,077
level combined with sailors who have a 

433
00:17:16,077 --> 00:17:18,243
wide variety of skills . And also good 

434
00:17:18,243 --> 00:17:20,550
Familiarization is exactly what we need 

435
00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:22,449
when we're trying to do uncertain 

436
00:17:22,449 --> 00:17:25,140
repairs in an unknown location in a big 

437
00:17:25,140 --> 00:17:27,320
fight . I appreciate your attention . 

438
00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:29,542
I'm looking forward to your questions . 

439
00:17:29,542 --> 00:17:31,487
Fantastic lt and that and that's a 

440
00:17:31,487 --> 00:17:33,542
great point . You know , you hit the 

441
00:17:33,542 --> 00:17:33,440
nail on the head on the need for the 

442
00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:35,496
Reserve Force to be ready to support 

443
00:17:35,496 --> 00:17:37,662
expeditionary battle damage assessment 

444
00:17:37,662 --> 00:17:39,551
and repair . You're getting after 

445
00:17:39,551 --> 00:17:41,384
something that is built into the 

446
00:17:41,384 --> 00:17:43,440
communications that we've got in the 

447
00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:45,662
indo pacific region and in the european 

448
00:17:45,662 --> 00:17:47,884
theater . So , so thanks for your great 

449
00:17:47,884 --> 00:17:47,690
thinking . I'm also keenly aware and 

450
00:17:47,690 --> 00:17:49,801
very interested in what our Air Force 

451
00:17:49,801 --> 00:17:51,968
partners are doing with the technician 

452
00:17:51,968 --> 00:17:53,968
program . So I'm curious how do you 

453
00:17:53,968 --> 00:17:55,912
envision the implementation ? What 

454
00:17:55,912 --> 00:17:55,800
would it take for us to get this across 

455
00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:57,910
the finish line ? So the existing 

456
00:17:57,910 --> 00:18:00,440
statute is basically two parts . The 

457
00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:02,750
first part talks about what reserve 

458
00:18:02,750 --> 00:18:04,750
technician program has to do and we 

459
00:18:04,750 --> 00:18:06,806
comply with that . No problem . It's 

460
00:18:06,806 --> 00:18:09,470
british neutral . The second part talks 

461
00:18:09,470 --> 00:18:11,637
about the budget and when it discusses 

462
00:18:11,637 --> 00:18:13,581
budget , it talks about the budget 

463
00:18:13,581 --> 00:18:15,637
percolating up from the Secretary of 

464
00:18:15,637 --> 00:18:17,692
the Navy and Secretary of the army , 

465
00:18:17,692 --> 00:18:19,692
through the Secretary of Defense to 

466
00:18:19,692 --> 00:18:21,914
Congress . So to get after this first , 

467
00:18:21,914 --> 00:18:23,970
what I don't know is if the Navy can 

468
00:18:23,970 --> 00:18:26,380
use that same that same path , go 

469
00:18:26,380 --> 00:18:28,491
through D . O . D . To Congress or if 

470
00:18:28,491 --> 00:18:30,824
we need changes in the existing statute . 

471
00:18:30,824 --> 00:18:33,510
So that will be the first step . If we 

472
00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:35,576
let's say we have it , we've got the 

473
00:18:35,576 --> 00:18:37,520
authorization we need . I think we 

474
00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:39,576
would stand up a group In probably a 

475
00:18:39,576 --> 00:18:41,750
nasty 00 at the military personnel 

476
00:18:41,750 --> 00:18:43,583
office that surgery already uses 

477
00:18:44,120 --> 00:18:46,231
possibly put someone order someone on 

478
00:18:46,231 --> 00:18:49,050
orders similar to what we did for the 

479
00:18:49,530 --> 00:18:52,520
reserve mobilization and they could 

480
00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:55,710
flesh out this program . The Air Force 

481
00:18:55,710 --> 00:18:57,840
already has significant documentation 

482
00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:00,007
about how they do this in terms of the 

483
00:19:00,110 --> 00:19:03,220
like the granular details about leave 

484
00:19:03,220 --> 00:19:06,050
and policies . If people get hurt , all 

485
00:19:06,050 --> 00:19:08,217
that kind of stuff has worked out . It 

486
00:19:08,217 --> 00:19:10,439
would be a matter of getting someone in 

487
00:19:10,439 --> 00:19:12,550
the position that can transition that 

488
00:19:12,550 --> 00:19:12,170
to the Navy and translate it to the 

489
00:19:12,170 --> 00:19:14,392
Navy . Fantastic . Okay . And there are 

490
00:19:14,392 --> 00:19:16,503
issues there for the personnel . It's 

491
00:19:16,503 --> 00:19:18,726
about cost and authorities and benefits 

492
00:19:18,726 --> 00:19:20,670
that we can get after . But okay . 

493
00:19:20,670 --> 00:19:22,837
Thank you for that . Great one . Hey , 

494
00:19:22,837 --> 00:19:25,059
I'm gonna , I'm gonna toss this over to 

495
00:19:25,059 --> 00:19:27,226
chief select fannies who's our reserve 

496
00:19:27,226 --> 00:19:26,380
sailor of the year . I know she's got a 

497
00:19:26,380 --> 00:19:29,360
great question for you . Hello sir . 

498
00:19:29,360 --> 00:19:32,030
How are you doing ? My question for you 

499
00:19:32,030 --> 00:19:34,910
is right now the Navy does not have 

500
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:38,200
technicians . Are you able to estimate 

501
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:40,920
the cost to implement necessary changes 

502
00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:43,890
to I . T . And personnel systems to 

503
00:19:43,890 --> 00:19:45,810
accommodate this new category of 

504
00:19:45,810 --> 00:19:49,770
personnel ? Okay so I'll answer 

505
00:19:49,770 --> 00:19:51,881
the question I want to answer first . 

506
00:19:51,881 --> 00:19:53,992
Which is how much would this cost the 

507
00:19:53,992 --> 00:19:57,340
Navy ? I think the cost if we implement 

508
00:19:57,340 --> 00:20:00,070
this by converting existing billets to 

509
00:20:00,070 --> 00:20:03,220
reserve technician billets and existing 

510
00:20:03,230 --> 00:20:05,341
reserve billets to reserve technician 

511
00:20:05,341 --> 00:20:07,550
billets then we could from a top line 

512
00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:11,030
kind of manpower payment situation . 

513
00:20:11,230 --> 00:20:13,341
Not really cost the Navy very much at 

514
00:20:13,341 --> 00:20:15,286
all . Just putting this one guy on 

515
00:20:15,286 --> 00:20:17,397
orders in terms of the I . T . System 

516
00:20:17,397 --> 00:20:19,619
and kind of the administrative costs of 

517
00:20:19,619 --> 00:20:22,110
of putting this together . I don't know 

518
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:24,344
how much it would cost to do . I'm 

519
00:20:24,344 --> 00:20:27,820
hoping that if we hire if we keep Say a 

520
00:20:27,820 --> 00:20:30,700
captain on orders for say three years 

521
00:20:31,070 --> 00:20:34,520
figure 200,000 a year . So call it 

522
00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:38,320
600,000 to get that captain in . I 

523
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:40,487
guess that's my best guess of how much 

524
00:20:40,487 --> 00:20:42,598
it would cost to work out some of the 

525
00:20:42,598 --> 00:20:44,709
administrative details or put someone 

526
00:20:44,709 --> 00:20:44,180
in charge of working out the 

527
00:20:44,180 --> 00:20:46,458
administrative details . Thank you sir . 

528
00:20:46,458 --> 00:20:48,736
Thank you . Did you have any questions ? 

529
00:20:48,736 --> 00:20:51,230
Thanks a lot . Chief select L . T . How 

530
00:20:51,230 --> 00:20:53,397
you doing ? Doing well thanks for us . 

531
00:20:53,397 --> 00:20:55,341
Alright . Alright nice haircut . I 

532
00:20:55,341 --> 00:20:57,397
agree I was worried about the lights 

533
00:20:57,397 --> 00:21:01,120
but so far so good . Alright . Um Have 

534
00:21:01,120 --> 00:21:03,440
you considered using full time support 

535
00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:07,140
sailors . Vice creating a civilian 

536
00:21:07,150 --> 00:21:09,670
technician . Yes . Force in fact one of 

537
00:21:09,670 --> 00:21:11,892
the other contestants . Commander shu . 

538
00:21:11,892 --> 00:21:13,892
I had to give him credit because he 

539
00:21:13,892 --> 00:21:16,114
brought up this very good idea of using 

540
00:21:16,114 --> 00:21:18,281
Tar sailors basically to do this . The 

541
00:21:18,281 --> 00:21:20,281
issue with Tar sailors is that they 

542
00:21:20,281 --> 00:21:22,503
rotate so you can put the tar sailor in 

543
00:21:22,503 --> 00:21:24,726
there for say four years but four years 

544
00:21:24,726 --> 00:21:26,948
is just the apprenticeship program in a 

545
00:21:26,948 --> 00:21:28,948
shipyard . So you get them they get 

546
00:21:28,948 --> 00:21:31,059
trained up but then they're leaving . 

547
00:21:31,059 --> 00:21:33,281
If you have a civilian in this position 

548
00:21:33,281 --> 00:21:35,448
a dual status person , they stay there 

549
00:21:35,448 --> 00:21:35,380
for a long time . You give the 

550
00:21:35,380 --> 00:21:38,230
continuity , they develop deep skills 

551
00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:40,129
that you require for this kind of 

552
00:21:40,129 --> 00:21:42,820
maintenance . How long do you think 

553
00:21:42,820 --> 00:21:46,690
this would take to stand up ? So if we 

554
00:21:46,690 --> 00:21:48,920
have to request authorizations that's 

555
00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:51,087
gonna take at least a year because you 

556
00:21:51,087 --> 00:21:54,190
have to stick it in next year's NBA the 

557
00:21:54,190 --> 00:21:56,460
national Defense authorization . 

558
00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:00,207
That process will take we'll call it a 

559
00:22:00,207 --> 00:22:02,096
year , maybe two . Then you start 

560
00:22:02,096 --> 00:22:04,262
standing people up start hiring people 

561
00:22:04,262 --> 00:22:06,484
that's gonna take probably another year 

562
00:22:06,484 --> 00:22:08,540
to get the bill . It's converted and 

563
00:22:08,540 --> 00:22:10,970
then it takes roughly four years to 

564
00:22:10,970 --> 00:22:13,970
make eight journeymen level 

565
00:22:14,940 --> 00:22:16,890
person at the shipyard after they 

566
00:22:16,890 --> 00:22:19,240
complete their assessment . So that's 

567
00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:21,462
why the timing is critical . We have to 

568
00:22:21,462 --> 00:22:24,720
start now so we get ourselves available 

569
00:22:24,730 --> 00:22:26,900
in the time when the biggest threat is 

570
00:22:26,900 --> 00:22:29,011
happening from our peer adversaries . 

571
00:22:29,540 --> 00:22:32,170
Thank you very much . Fantastic . Okay . 

572
00:22:32,380 --> 00:22:34,602
Lt appreciate the input on this one and 

573
00:22:34,602 --> 00:22:36,658
I appreciate the articulation of the 

574
00:22:36,658 --> 00:22:38,713
vision and the execution . We'll get 

575
00:22:38,713 --> 00:22:40,880
back to you . We got some deliberation 

576
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:40,710
to take care of here but but thanks 

577
00:22:40,710 --> 00:22:44,610
again for being our next presenters 

578
00:22:44,610 --> 00:22:46,666
commander robert shoe . How did your 

579
00:22:46,666 --> 00:22:49,210
job inspire you with this idea as a 

580
00:22:49,210 --> 00:22:51,210
reserve center ceo you see a lot of 

581
00:22:51,210 --> 00:22:53,266
reservists struggling with trying to 

582
00:22:53,266 --> 00:22:55,488
get access to information that's locked 

583
00:22:55,488 --> 00:22:57,599
behind a firewall or put on different 

584
00:22:57,599 --> 00:22:59,766
systems . And I just would like for us 

585
00:22:59,766 --> 00:23:01,377
to change the way we deliver 

586
00:23:01,377 --> 00:23:03,488
information so it can be more readily 

587
00:23:03,488 --> 00:23:05,654
and easily accessed by our shipmates . 

588
00:23:05,654 --> 00:23:07,877
We'll go out there and give it what you 

589
00:23:07,877 --> 00:23:09,860
got . Mm 

590
00:23:22,740 --> 00:23:25,540
Admiral Panelists greetings . My name 

591
00:23:25,540 --> 00:23:27,596
is Commander bobby Shew and I'm here 

592
00:23:27,596 --> 00:23:29,429
today to ask for your support in 

593
00:23:29,429 --> 00:23:31,429
creating a new and different way of 

594
00:23:31,429 --> 00:23:33,651
delivering information and knowledge to 

595
00:23:33,651 --> 00:23:35,707
our navy reservists . One that helps 

596
00:23:35,707 --> 00:23:37,373
reserve sailors focus more on 

597
00:23:37,373 --> 00:23:39,484
productivity rather than dealing with 

598
00:23:39,484 --> 00:23:41,484
information technology or knowledge 

599
00:23:41,484 --> 00:23:43,429
management issues . Let me explain 

600
00:23:43,429 --> 00:23:45,484
about once every six years or so . A 

601
00:23:45,484 --> 00:23:47,484
car's air filter would have to be , 

602
00:23:47,484 --> 00:23:49,707
sorry , six months . A car's air filter 

603
00:23:49,707 --> 00:23:51,818
would have to be replaced . Now I can 

604
00:23:51,818 --> 00:23:54,040
take the car to the dealer and leave it 

605
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,096
there for about half a day and drive 

606
00:23:56,096 --> 00:23:58,096
away with the problem fixed . I pay 

607
00:23:58,096 --> 00:24:00,262
about $200 for parts and labor And the 

608
00:24:00,262 --> 00:24:02,318
privilege of drinking their terrible 

609
00:24:02,318 --> 00:24:04,373
coffee and leafing through a stained 

610
00:24:04,373 --> 00:24:06,910
copy of 1997 newsweek . What I actually 

611
00:24:06,910 --> 00:24:10,880
did Was I would Google 2013 Ford 

612
00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:13,010
Edge Air Filter replacement and that 

613
00:24:13,010 --> 00:24:15,177
would pull up a list of YouTube videos 

614
00:24:15,177 --> 00:24:17,066
of youtubers showing me how to do 

615
00:24:17,066 --> 00:24:19,580
exactly that . It would have links to 

616
00:24:19,580 --> 00:24:21,690
parts that I would need and I would 

617
00:24:21,690 --> 00:24:23,579
order it on Amazon , it would get 

618
00:24:23,579 --> 00:24:25,523
delivered to me and I paid $10 and 

619
00:24:25,523 --> 00:24:27,523
spend five minutes of my time doing 

620
00:24:27,523 --> 00:24:30,480
that same job . If I have questions I 

621
00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:32,702
posted right there on the channel , the 

622
00:24:32,702 --> 00:24:34,869
Youtuber or fellow viewer would answer 

623
00:24:34,869 --> 00:24:37,390
my questions contrast that with the way 

624
00:24:37,390 --> 00:24:39,390
that we search for knowledge in the 

625
00:24:39,390 --> 00:24:41,450
Navy reserves , we put everything 

626
00:24:41,450 --> 00:24:44,310
behind a VPN firewall . We split it up 

627
00:24:44,310 --> 00:24:46,870
into separately access systems that you 

628
00:24:46,870 --> 00:24:48,870
know , we can't index or search via 

629
00:24:48,870 --> 00:24:50,814
single search engine like google . 

630
00:24:51,340 --> 00:24:54,010
Finally we archive that information in 

631
00:24:54,010 --> 00:24:56,980
text files using a system called 

632
00:24:56,990 --> 00:24:59,660
standard subject identification code . 

633
00:24:59,860 --> 00:25:01,693
And what that is is the medieval 

634
00:25:01,693 --> 00:25:04,027
predecessor of the dewey decimal system . 

635
00:25:04,340 --> 00:25:06,940
So how do we change that ? We change 

636
00:25:06,940 --> 00:25:09,200
that by creating a Navy Reserve youtube 

637
00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:11,311
channel . You can see here an example 

638
00:25:11,311 --> 00:25:13,367
of what that might look like in this 

639
00:25:13,367 --> 00:25:15,550
example . We have a library of video 

640
00:25:15,550 --> 00:25:18,440
based content . How to guides first 

641
00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:20,607
aimed at new affiliate reserve sailors 

642
00:25:20,607 --> 00:25:22,607
but with a few more advanced topics 

643
00:25:22,607 --> 00:25:24,607
interspersed in between there , the 

644
00:25:24,607 --> 00:25:27,130
titles are immediately engaging and a 

645
00:25:27,130 --> 00:25:29,410
sailor can spend a lot of time just 

646
00:25:29,420 --> 00:25:31,476
absorbing the material clicking from 

647
00:25:31,476 --> 00:25:34,340
one to the next . Can you see a sailor 

648
00:25:34,340 --> 00:25:36,590
tracking down common common adverse for 

649
00:25:36,590 --> 00:25:38,534
3060 , reading that thing cover to 

650
00:25:38,534 --> 00:25:40,534
cover and then just because they're 

651
00:25:40,534 --> 00:25:42,312
interested clicking on the next 

652
00:25:42,312 --> 00:25:44,479
instruction , reading that thing cover 

653
00:25:44,479 --> 00:25:44,190
to cover so they can absorb more 

654
00:25:44,190 --> 00:25:46,740
knowledge . I don't think so . I 

655
00:25:46,740 --> 00:25:48,851
envision a future where they can type 

656
00:25:48,851 --> 00:25:50,907
in how to cancel your flight without 

657
00:25:50,907 --> 00:25:53,129
calling Sato takes less than 15 minutes 

658
00:25:53,129 --> 00:25:56,780
and John Maki Muhsin and Tracy , the 

659
00:25:56,780 --> 00:25:59,500
Hammer Hunt would have a video showing 

660
00:25:59,500 --> 00:26:01,333
you . How did you exactly ? That 

661
00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:03,896
wouldn't that be awesome ? I want to 

662
00:26:03,896 --> 00:26:05,729
see a future where we're putting 

663
00:26:05,729 --> 00:26:07,562
information and knowledge at the 

664
00:26:07,562 --> 00:26:07,550
fingertips of every reserve sailor with 

665
00:26:07,550 --> 00:26:09,661
a mobile device . You can just google 

666
00:26:09,661 --> 00:26:11,883
what they need . No CAC , no firewall , 

667
00:26:11,883 --> 00:26:14,217
no control FM PDFs Looking for keywords . 

668
00:26:14,740 --> 00:26:17,040
A future where sailors are excited to 

669
00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:19,050
find out about 10 flexible units in 

670
00:26:19,050 --> 00:26:20,860
Norfolk area . Top five coolest 

671
00:26:20,860 --> 00:26:23,250
mobilizations in 2022 thereby just 

672
00:26:23,250 --> 00:26:25,440
absorbing the knowledge of how to be a 

673
00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:28,310
Navy Reserve Sailor panelists . I need 

674
00:26:28,310 --> 00:26:30,532
your help to make that future a reality 

675
00:26:30,532 --> 00:26:33,430
and to make Maki Mustang the next big 

676
00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:36,780
youtube star . Thank you commander . 

677
00:26:36,780 --> 00:26:38,724
Thank you very much appreciate the 

678
00:26:38,724 --> 00:26:41,002
passion and uh , and the new call sign . 

679
00:26:41,002 --> 00:26:43,058
I think we're gonna leave that up to 

680
00:26:43,058 --> 00:26:42,990
the audience to determine if that has 

681
00:26:42,990 --> 00:26:45,870
legs or not . But uh , listen , very 

682
00:26:45,870 --> 00:26:48,110
thoughtful submission . And I like you 

683
00:26:48,110 --> 00:26:50,320
share a passion for the urgency of our 

684
00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:52,780
efficient communications at scale so 

685
00:26:52,780 --> 00:26:54,836
that we can eliminate administrative 

686
00:26:54,836 --> 00:26:57,002
inefficiencies . So the way that we do 

687
00:26:57,002 --> 00:26:59,600
this smartly wisely again , scalable E 

688
00:26:59,740 --> 00:27:02,050
is critically important to us . We do 

689
00:27:02,050 --> 00:27:03,994
some things like this via the Navy 

690
00:27:03,994 --> 00:27:06,280
recruiting command and within CMP and 

691
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:08,780
the personnel command . So how is what 

692
00:27:08,780 --> 00:27:11,550
you're suggesting ? Difference ? Oh , 

693
00:27:12,340 --> 00:27:14,340
so I'm not intimately familiar with 

694
00:27:14,340 --> 00:27:16,507
what we do with those other commands , 

695
00:27:16,507 --> 00:27:18,618
but I think content focused on how to 

696
00:27:18,618 --> 00:27:20,840
be and do for Navy Reserve Sailor , 

697
00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:22,784
especially those new affiliates is 

698
00:27:22,784 --> 00:27:25,390
incredibly important . I served to have 

699
00:27:25,390 --> 00:27:27,557
the honor and privilege of serving two 

700
00:27:27,557 --> 00:27:29,668
consecutive tours as the Navy Reserve 

701
00:27:29,668 --> 00:27:31,779
Center Ceo . And I can't tell you the 

702
00:27:31,779 --> 00:27:34,001
number of new Reserve sailors that I've 

703
00:27:34,001 --> 00:27:36,223
lost in that time because we cannot get 

704
00:27:36,223 --> 00:27:38,557
them engaged . Sometimes it's very hard . 

705
00:27:38,557 --> 00:27:40,612
They come in being recruited for one 

706
00:27:40,612 --> 00:27:42,779
reason or they have something in their 

707
00:27:42,779 --> 00:27:44,668
mind and they maybe can't get the 

708
00:27:44,668 --> 00:27:44,650
mentorship that they need to proceed 

709
00:27:44,650 --> 00:27:46,761
forward . I think this is a great way 

710
00:27:46,761 --> 00:27:49,240
to attack that problem by engaging that 

711
00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:51,240
generation . This new generation of 

712
00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:53,184
sailors with information that they 

713
00:27:53,184 --> 00:27:55,140
routinely use in a place that they 

714
00:27:55,150 --> 00:27:57,483
routinely go to go get that information . 

715
00:27:57,483 --> 00:27:59,539
Fantastic . Okay , well , love where 

716
00:27:59,539 --> 00:28:01,594
your head is on this and it's a very 

717
00:28:01,594 --> 00:28:03,594
thoughtful submission . I'm gonna I 

718
00:28:03,594 --> 00:28:05,790
know that Mr Bruce Mosler , who is our 

719
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:08,000
captain of Industry , has a couple of 

720
00:28:08,230 --> 00:28:10,470
questions for you too , commander , 

721
00:28:10,470 --> 00:28:12,081
thank you very much for your 

722
00:28:12,081 --> 00:28:14,026
presentation . Couple of questions 

723
00:28:14,030 --> 00:28:16,252
seems to me that you're very focused on 

724
00:28:16,252 --> 00:28:18,370
accessibility , quality of training . 

725
00:28:18,380 --> 00:28:20,940
Do you intend to or is your intention 

726
00:28:20,940 --> 00:28:23,820
to replace in person training with the 

727
00:28:23,820 --> 00:28:26,330
videos ? And let me ask you , just as a 

728
00:28:26,330 --> 00:28:28,640
business person , technology constantly 

729
00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:30,751
changes . Have you thought about what 

730
00:28:30,751 --> 00:28:33,460
might replace the youtube or video down 

731
00:28:33,460 --> 00:28:36,140
the road ? So that's a great question 

732
00:28:36,150 --> 00:28:38,261
and thank you for them . So , I think 

733
00:28:38,261 --> 00:28:40,428
the answer to your first question is I 

734
00:28:40,428 --> 00:28:42,650
don't I never envisioned this replacing 

735
00:28:42,650 --> 00:28:44,706
in person training , you know , as a 

736
00:28:44,706 --> 00:28:47,550
commander . SeO I always felt that was 

737
00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:49,840
invaluable to have that option to have 

738
00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:51,880
that . Right ? So , you know , if I 

739
00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:54,213
choose to and I had a good video to use , 

740
00:28:54,213 --> 00:28:56,324
I could certainly use that to provide 

741
00:28:56,324 --> 00:28:58,547
the training . And I thought that meant 

742
00:28:58,547 --> 00:29:00,769
the objectives , but I'm not sure about 

743
00:29:00,769 --> 00:29:02,991
mandating a replacement as a supplement 

744
00:29:02,991 --> 00:29:02,940
as a tool . I think that would be , it 

745
00:29:02,940 --> 00:29:05,360
would be fantastic . And as interest 

746
00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:08,270
items for sailors to learn about things . 

747
00:29:09,780 --> 00:29:11,760
As for your second question , as 

748
00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:13,982
technology changes , we have to adapt , 

749
00:29:13,982 --> 00:29:16,038
right ? But I feel like the Navy and 

750
00:29:16,038 --> 00:29:18,093
the Navy reserves and specifics , we 

751
00:29:18,093 --> 00:29:19,982
tend to be on the back end of the 

752
00:29:19,982 --> 00:29:22,316
adaptation curve right now in the front , 

753
00:29:22,316 --> 00:29:22,080
not in the second group , but third or 

754
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:24,302
fourth , maybe the 20th group . I'm not 

755
00:29:24,302 --> 00:29:26,302
sure you know , this technology has 

756
00:29:26,302 --> 00:29:28,469
been out there for a long time already 

757
00:29:28,469 --> 00:29:30,691
and we haven't adopted it yet . Right ? 

758
00:29:30,691 --> 00:29:32,858
So I would like for us to move further 

759
00:29:32,858 --> 00:29:35,080
up the chain in terms of where we're at 

760
00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:37,136
with technology adoption . How do we 

761
00:29:37,136 --> 00:29:39,191
drive that ? I'm not sure I have the 

762
00:29:39,191 --> 00:29:41,413
answer . But I think adopting something 

763
00:29:41,413 --> 00:29:43,580
like this would go a long ways towards 

764
00:29:43,580 --> 00:29:45,636
encouraging that culture of adopting 

765
00:29:45,636 --> 00:29:47,880
technology . Hello sir , I have one 

766
00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:50,010
question for you . This is an amazing 

767
00:29:50,010 --> 00:29:52,790
presentation . Are there any other 

768
00:29:52,790 --> 00:29:55,400
solutions or platforms that are out 

769
00:29:55,410 --> 00:29:57,730
already ? And if so , what caused you 

770
00:29:57,730 --> 00:29:59,952
to bypass those ? Yeah , that's a great 

771
00:29:59,952 --> 00:30:02,500
question . So one of the platforms that 

772
00:30:02,500 --> 00:30:04,667
we used routinely in the Navy reserves 

773
00:30:04,667 --> 00:30:07,800
is facebook . So I've seen the put out 

774
00:30:07,810 --> 00:30:10,210
information force mass . She put out 

775
00:30:10,210 --> 00:30:12,432
information via facebook . A lot of the 

776
00:30:12,432 --> 00:30:14,600
reserve centers have their own , I use 

777
00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:17,170
my own facebook to broadcast my drill 

778
00:30:17,170 --> 00:30:19,281
weekends , every single drill weekend 

779
00:30:19,281 --> 00:30:21,114
during covid when we're fighting 

780
00:30:21,114 --> 00:30:23,059
disinformation and we're trying to 

781
00:30:23,059 --> 00:30:25,226
encourage folks to get shots . I would 

782
00:30:25,226 --> 00:30:27,780
put out videos , talking about some of 

783
00:30:27,780 --> 00:30:29,947
the precautions and trying to reassure 

784
00:30:29,947 --> 00:30:32,169
our sailors because they weren't coming 

785
00:30:32,169 --> 00:30:34,391
in . I did not get time to talk to them 

786
00:30:34,391 --> 00:30:36,447
face to face . And that was the only 

787
00:30:36,447 --> 00:30:38,447
way to do that . The challenge with 

788
00:30:38,447 --> 00:30:40,391
some of these platforms , the Navy 

789
00:30:40,391 --> 00:30:42,391
reserve website or whatever else is 

790
00:30:42,391 --> 00:30:44,613
that you can't really search for them , 

791
00:30:44,613 --> 00:30:46,780
right . If I'm looking for knowledge . 

792
00:30:46,780 --> 00:30:48,947
You put it behind facebook , right ? I 

793
00:30:48,947 --> 00:30:51,002
can't go to google type it in , it's 

794
00:30:51,002 --> 00:30:50,990
not going to pull up some facebook 

795
00:30:50,990 --> 00:30:53,720
video that was recorded a year ago . If 

796
00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:55,553
you created a channel where some 

797
00:30:55,553 --> 00:30:57,860
repository where it was centralized , 

798
00:30:58,040 --> 00:30:59,929
it was index . You can manage the 

799
00:30:59,929 --> 00:31:01,818
content . I think that would be a 

800
00:31:01,818 --> 00:31:03,929
better way of delivering this type of 

801
00:31:03,929 --> 00:31:05,707
information than something like 

802
00:31:05,707 --> 00:31:07,651
facebook . Thank you Sir . Admiral 

803
00:31:07,651 --> 00:31:11,230
louis your thoughts . So what so based 

804
00:31:11,230 --> 00:31:13,397
upon what you just said , why would it 

805
00:31:13,397 --> 00:31:16,330
be more cost effective to have an index 

806
00:31:16,330 --> 00:31:18,450
site rather than have a stand alone ? 

807
00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:21,600
Uh , you know , navy side , if you're 

808
00:31:21,610 --> 00:31:24,310
or navy Youtube channel , what what's 

809
00:31:24,310 --> 00:31:26,643
the advantage of having the stand alone ? 

810
00:31:27,230 --> 00:31:31,160
You know , navy sanctioned youtube . 

811
00:31:32,140 --> 00:31:35,110
The advantage with this is that I think 

812
00:31:35,110 --> 00:31:37,332
we can control the information better . 

813
00:31:37,332 --> 00:31:39,332
So there's a lot of other folks out 

814
00:31:39,332 --> 00:31:41,388
there already . Ever since I came in 

815
00:31:41,388 --> 00:31:43,054
the reserve force as a , as a 

816
00:31:43,054 --> 00:31:45,221
lieutenant , there have been folks out 

817
00:31:45,221 --> 00:31:47,054
there that have been putting out 

818
00:31:47,054 --> 00:31:49,277
information exactly like this , right ? 

819
00:31:49,277 --> 00:31:51,443
There is a lieutenant commander at the 

820
00:31:51,443 --> 00:31:53,721
time kelly Bemis , I think his name is , 

821
00:31:53,721 --> 00:31:55,943
lots of reservists have used his or her 

822
00:31:55,943 --> 00:31:57,999
website . There's lots of unofficial 

823
00:31:57,999 --> 00:31:59,832
channels out there . Some of the 

824
00:31:59,832 --> 00:32:01,888
information is really good . Some of 

825
00:32:01,888 --> 00:32:03,860
the information is not as good . I 

826
00:32:03,860 --> 00:32:06,027
think it's important for us to control 

827
00:32:06,027 --> 00:32:09,300
the accuracy of the information and the 

828
00:32:09,310 --> 00:32:11,477
ability to update it and get the right 

829
00:32:11,477 --> 00:32:13,477
stuff out there . So in the break , 

830
00:32:13,477 --> 00:32:15,532
Admiral and I were talking about the 

831
00:32:15,532 --> 00:32:17,754
updated policy . Right . So some of the 

832
00:32:17,754 --> 00:32:20,088
content out there if it's not refreshed , 

833
00:32:20,088 --> 00:32:19,660
it wouldn't reflect that updated policy . 

834
00:32:19,670 --> 00:32:21,990
So your sailors would come uh and try 

835
00:32:21,990 --> 00:32:24,157
to try to manipulate the system or use 

836
00:32:24,157 --> 00:32:26,157
the system to to get what they need 

837
00:32:26,157 --> 00:32:28,212
where they may not need to do that . 

838
00:32:28,212 --> 00:32:30,268
Right , Because the policy's already 

839
00:32:30,268 --> 00:32:32,434
changed . Alright , well bobby , thank 

840
00:32:32,434 --> 00:32:32,380
you for the great input on this . I 

841
00:32:32,380 --> 00:32:34,269
love the idea . I think there's a 

842
00:32:34,269 --> 00:32:36,380
general acknowledgement that this can 

843
00:32:36,380 --> 00:32:38,547
work . It's implemented ble you know , 

844
00:32:38,547 --> 00:32:40,658
I think that that we probably want to 

845
00:32:40,658 --> 00:32:42,820
talk about organic content management 

846
00:32:42,820 --> 00:32:44,876
and really kind of rights management 

847
00:32:44,876 --> 00:32:46,876
who owns it . Is it centralized via 

848
00:32:46,876 --> 00:32:49,098
public affairs or something else ? Just 

849
00:32:49,098 --> 00:32:51,209
to get that centralized approved view 

850
00:32:51,209 --> 00:32:53,431
of what goes on here . But but we thank 

851
00:32:53,431 --> 00:32:55,153
you very much . We've got some 

852
00:32:55,153 --> 00:32:57,264
deliberating to do here and we'll get 

853
00:32:57,264 --> 00:32:57,200
back to you on this one . So hang in 

854
00:32:57,200 --> 00:32:58,700
there but thanks again for 

855
00:32:58,700 --> 00:33:00,478
participating and for the great 

856
00:33:00,478 --> 00:33:02,710
thinking . Our next presenters are 

857
00:33:02,710 --> 00:33:04,766
Commander SAra McGann and Lieutenant 

858
00:33:04,766 --> 00:33:06,766
Joshua . Did how did the two of you 

859
00:33:06,766 --> 00:33:09,080
come up with this idea together ? Well 

860
00:33:09,090 --> 00:33:11,034
actually , ma'am , we were serving 

861
00:33:11,034 --> 00:33:13,300
together in the Navy personnel Command 

862
00:33:13,300 --> 00:33:16,700
reserve unit and it just really came 

863
00:33:16,700 --> 00:33:19,060
down to right place at the right time . 

864
00:33:19,940 --> 00:33:22,162
Yeah , there have been dozens of people 

865
00:33:22,162 --> 00:33:24,329
that have working on this for the last 

866
00:33:24,329 --> 00:33:26,218
several years , both military and 

867
00:33:26,218 --> 00:33:27,940
civilians . So we're just here 

868
00:33:27,940 --> 00:33:29,940
representing their efforts . Well , 

869
00:33:29,940 --> 00:33:29,710
that means there's a lot of people 

870
00:33:29,710 --> 00:33:31,950
rooting for you . Good luck . Thank 

871
00:33:31,950 --> 00:33:33,750
you . 

872
00:33:49,710 --> 00:33:52,310
Admiral Panelist . Thank you for having 

873
00:33:52,310 --> 00:33:54,920
us . Imagine you've dedicated 20 or 

874
00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:57,170
more years to a career . But when you 

875
00:33:57,170 --> 00:33:59,400
get close to the finish line , you lack 

876
00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:01,622
clarity on how to get to where you want 

877
00:34:01,622 --> 00:34:03,900
to go and you don't know where to turn . 

878
00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:06,440
Most reservists will go through two 

879
00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:10,060
transitions what awaiting retiring 

880
00:34:10,070 --> 00:34:12,760
awaiting pay often called the gray area . 

881
00:34:13,300 --> 00:34:15,910
Then later on in life retiring with pay , 

882
00:34:16,420 --> 00:34:18,364
reservists can be in the gray area 

883
00:34:18,500 --> 00:34:22,210
anywhere from one month Up to 22 years 

884
00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:25,670
awaiting to retire with pay 3.5 years 

885
00:34:25,670 --> 00:34:27,670
ago we started building what is now 

886
00:34:27,670 --> 00:34:30,640
called retirement transition outreach R . 

887
00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:33,150
T . O . In an effort to improve the 

888
00:34:33,150 --> 00:34:35,660
reserve retirement process . This 

889
00:34:35,660 --> 00:34:37,850
started with an idea born out of an 

890
00:34:37,850 --> 00:34:40,070
observation that reserve retirements 

891
00:34:40,070 --> 00:34:42,430
were not going well . The transition 

892
00:34:42,430 --> 00:34:44,990
assistance program focuses on active 

893
00:34:44,990 --> 00:34:47,420
duty and doesn't address issues 

894
00:34:47,420 --> 00:34:49,350
relevant to reserve retirements . 

895
00:34:49,940 --> 00:34:52,107
Reservists were experiencing delays in 

896
00:34:52,107 --> 00:34:54,390
starting their retirement pay and staff 

897
00:34:54,390 --> 00:34:57,020
and my Navy HR We're wondering why 

898
00:34:57,020 --> 00:34:58,909
reservists didn't know what to do 

899
00:34:58,909 --> 00:35:00,631
because after all , it's their 

900
00:35:00,631 --> 00:35:03,600
retirement . Sir , you're fighting 

901
00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:05,656
instructions describe sailors as our 

902
00:35:05,656 --> 00:35:07,640
asymmetric advantage , our 

903
00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:09,970
responsibility as leaders is to take 

904
00:35:09,970 --> 00:35:12,026
care of our sailors and ensure we're 

905
00:35:12,026 --> 00:35:14,950
fighting readiness . We must educate 

906
00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:17,320
and empower sailors , helping them 

907
00:35:17,330 --> 00:35:20,260
understand and plan for one of the most 

908
00:35:20,260 --> 00:35:22,830
valuable benefits they have as a 

909
00:35:22,830 --> 00:35:26,300
reservist Admiral 

910
00:35:26,390 --> 00:35:29,000
Distinguished panelists Over these 

911
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:31,056
three years . Our team has delivered 

912
00:35:31,056 --> 00:35:34,840
about 60 events to over 10,000 Navy 

913
00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:37,340
reservists at all . Retirement 

914
00:35:37,340 --> 00:35:41,230
milestones . Results have 

915
00:35:41,230 --> 00:35:44,910
included establishing direct contact 

916
00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:46,531
with sailors approaching pay 

917
00:35:46,531 --> 00:35:49,550
eligibility , increasing contact 

918
00:35:49,550 --> 00:35:52,440
ability with those gray area retirees 

919
00:35:52,450 --> 00:35:54,617
in particular who are in fact still on 

920
00:35:54,617 --> 00:35:56,860
the Navy Reserve team sir . 

921
00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:00,320
And yielding a 

922
00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:03,350
57% 

923
00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:07,010
decrease in the time it took my Navy 

924
00:36:07,010 --> 00:36:09,490
HR to process their application for 

925
00:36:09,490 --> 00:36:13,260
retired pay Admiral . 

926
00:36:13,830 --> 00:36:16,640
We are asking for you to put money now 

927
00:36:16,650 --> 00:36:18,940
behind your new Navy Reserve fighting 

928
00:36:18,940 --> 00:36:22,220
instructions 2022 X sword , your new 

929
00:36:22,220 --> 00:36:25,680
line of effort developed the force Sir . 

930
00:36:25,690 --> 00:36:29,310
We think that about $500,000 out of the 

931
00:36:29,310 --> 00:36:31,770
gate is going to have enormous impact . 

932
00:36:31,780 --> 00:36:34,360
In fact , we think that even as little 

933
00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:37,440
as $10,000 in the near term could 

934
00:36:37,450 --> 00:36:39,561
address one of the biggest problems . 

935
00:36:39,561 --> 00:36:42,160
Navy reservists have their point record . 

936
00:36:43,730 --> 00:36:46,510
We have a couple of concepts that we 

937
00:36:46,510 --> 00:36:49,750
want you to consider . You've already 

938
00:36:49,750 --> 00:36:51,750
teed it up in your fighting 

939
00:36:51,750 --> 00:36:54,560
instructions to task this out through 

940
00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:58,470
the X sort . We're already aware that 

941
00:36:58,470 --> 00:37:00,640
the team is forming now , but we don't 

942
00:37:00,650 --> 00:37:04,250
have dedicated resources . We can't 

943
00:37:04,250 --> 00:37:06,417
continue the work that our T . O . Has 

944
00:37:06,417 --> 00:37:09,400
been doing For three years and already 

945
00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:13,030
established model . We certainly can't 

946
00:37:13,030 --> 00:37:15,530
take it to the next level without 

947
00:37:15,530 --> 00:37:16,950
dedicated resources . 

948
00:37:18,630 --> 00:37:21,150
Fantastic . L . O . E . Four is 

949
00:37:21,150 --> 00:37:23,790
obviously a new launch initiative in 

950
00:37:23,790 --> 00:37:26,430
the fighting instructions 2022 it's 

951
00:37:26,430 --> 00:37:29,440
being spearheaded by nancy liqueur . 

952
00:37:29,570 --> 00:37:31,800
but my right hand and consigliere area 

953
00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:33,911
on this is force hunt and I know he's 

954
00:37:33,911 --> 00:37:36,022
got a question about this . Yes sir , 

955
00:37:36,022 --> 00:37:38,244
thank you , thank you . And I feel that 

956
00:37:38,244 --> 00:37:40,244
passionate . I hear it . I mean the 

957
00:37:40,244 --> 00:37:42,356
business of taking care of sales just 

958
00:37:42,356 --> 00:37:42,020
like you are , so I really appreciate 

959
00:37:42,020 --> 00:37:44,242
all your efforts and leadership in this 

960
00:37:44,242 --> 00:37:47,580
area . Um Being being a policy though , 

961
00:37:47,590 --> 00:37:50,240
is anything in our wheelhouse under our 

962
00:37:50,240 --> 00:37:54,060
umbrella that we can um um you know , 

963
00:37:54,060 --> 00:37:56,640
address the shortfalls in this instead 

964
00:37:56,640 --> 00:37:58,918
of going all the way up to second half , 

965
00:37:59,030 --> 00:38:01,940
we we think some of the easiest in 

966
00:38:02,670 --> 00:38:05,010
fastest options to move on . Master 

967
00:38:05,010 --> 00:38:08,010
Chief are things that can be done at 

968
00:38:08,010 --> 00:38:10,700
the unit or reserve center level and 

969
00:38:10,700 --> 00:38:12,811
its implementing , you know , as part 

970
00:38:12,811 --> 00:38:14,867
of unit in the spotlight , a regular 

971
00:38:14,867 --> 00:38:17,090
point review . Um it's it's short 

972
00:38:17,090 --> 00:38:19,490
trainings from , you know , unit 

973
00:38:19,490 --> 00:38:22,370
leadership or whomever to sailors about 

974
00:38:22,370 --> 00:38:24,680
reviewing their point record . And even 

975
00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:27,420
beyond that we think for a relatively 

976
00:38:27,420 --> 00:38:29,253
small investment , you could put 

977
00:38:29,253 --> 00:38:31,309
together some great online trainings 

978
00:38:31,620 --> 00:38:33,398
that could be published using . 

979
00:38:34,890 --> 00:38:37,750
Exactly , yeah , I just heard of a 

980
00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:41,740
great idea about that . Yeah . Um and 

981
00:38:41,740 --> 00:38:43,740
also things that can go on a mobile 

982
00:38:43,740 --> 00:38:46,420
platform . Um so recognizing that , you 

983
00:38:46,420 --> 00:38:48,587
know , a lot of what sailors are gonna 

984
00:38:48,587 --> 00:38:50,587
consume now is gonna probably be on 

985
00:38:50,587 --> 00:38:52,698
their phone or a tablet . Fantastic . 

986
00:38:52,698 --> 00:38:56,080
Thank you . Thank you . This is an 

987
00:38:56,080 --> 00:38:58,630
admirable idea . But what does it have 

988
00:38:58,630 --> 00:39:00,574
to do with readiness to be able to 

989
00:39:00,574 --> 00:39:02,970
fight tomorrow because we gotta be 

990
00:39:02,970 --> 00:39:05,081
ready to fight tomorrow as a , as a , 

991
00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:07,231
as a reserve active component force . 

992
00:39:07,350 --> 00:39:09,128
So what does it have to do that 

993
00:39:09,128 --> 00:39:12,500
Absolutely issues with point records 

994
00:39:12,500 --> 00:39:14,611
alone . An enormous distraction . Too 

995
00:39:14,611 --> 00:39:16,611
many sailors . I will tell you that 

996
00:39:16,611 --> 00:39:18,611
even just in the past week , in the 

997
00:39:18,611 --> 00:39:20,389
past several days , we've had a 

998
00:39:20,389 --> 00:39:22,500
conversation with the sailor who's in 

999
00:39:22,500 --> 00:39:24,722
this building right now , Who is a cell 

1000
00:39:24,722 --> 00:39:27,020
rez who is considering transferring to 

1001
00:39:27,020 --> 00:39:29,510
the V . T . U . Which would mean they 

1002
00:39:29,510 --> 00:39:32,700
were less able to go war fight because 

1003
00:39:32,700 --> 00:39:34,750
they know their point record is 

1004
00:39:34,750 --> 00:39:38,220
incorrect and they need more time back 

1005
00:39:38,230 --> 00:39:40,174
in their personal life to go about 

1006
00:39:40,174 --> 00:39:42,610
fixing that . That's just one sailor 

1007
00:39:42,610 --> 00:39:44,832
who is in this building right now . You 

1008
00:39:44,832 --> 00:39:46,943
can scale that across the entire Navy 

1009
00:39:46,943 --> 00:39:49,166
Reserve . I'll pass it to Bruce . Now , 

1010
00:39:49,750 --> 00:39:51,417
thank you . Thank you for the 

1011
00:39:51,417 --> 00:39:53,639
presentation was very , very insightful 

1012
00:39:53,639 --> 00:39:55,306
as a business person . We are 

1013
00:39:55,306 --> 00:39:57,417
constantly concerned about in the war 

1014
00:39:57,417 --> 00:39:59,472
for talent retention . You mentioned 

1015
00:39:59,472 --> 00:40:03,330
retention . So tell me how this will 

1016
00:40:03,330 --> 00:40:06,030
help retain the talent , spend a little 

1017
00:40:06,030 --> 00:40:08,310
more time . And what is the , and , and 

1018
00:40:08,310 --> 00:40:10,477
spell it ? If you can , what you think 

1019
00:40:10,477 --> 00:40:12,810
the real return is based on that . Sure . 

1020
00:40:12,810 --> 00:40:15,160
Our sailors have , they have off ramps 

1021
00:40:15,170 --> 00:40:18,110
at certain points in their career . And 

1022
00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:19,970
when we talk about educating and 

1023
00:40:19,970 --> 00:40:21,970
empowering . You know , sailors are 

1024
00:40:21,970 --> 00:40:24,192
gonna make their own decisions , but we 

1025
00:40:24,192 --> 00:40:26,303
want them to have all the information 

1026
00:40:26,303 --> 00:40:30,140
and what other job can you have in the 

1027
00:40:30,140 --> 00:40:32,730
military where you can lean in when it 

1028
00:40:32,730 --> 00:40:35,250
makes sense , lean back at certain 

1029
00:40:35,250 --> 00:40:37,472
points in your life when it when it may 

1030
00:40:37,472 --> 00:40:39,910
not be as convenient , but still have 

1031
00:40:39,910 --> 00:40:42,540
the opportunity for retirement , for 

1032
00:40:42,540 --> 00:40:45,220
health care and things like that . Um 

1033
00:40:45,230 --> 00:40:48,610
it truly is a valuable benefit but 

1034
00:40:48,620 --> 00:40:50,676
going back to the blended retirement 

1035
00:40:50,676 --> 00:40:53,390
system , we have to make sure that that 

1036
00:40:53,390 --> 00:40:56,630
junior sailors understand , you know , 

1037
00:40:56,640 --> 00:40:58,696
if they want to take that off ramp , 

1038
00:40:58,696 --> 00:41:01,540
that's fine . But understand what a few 

1039
00:41:01,540 --> 00:41:03,860
more years , what a slightly longer 

1040
00:41:03,860 --> 00:41:05,860
commitment could look like . That's 

1041
00:41:05,860 --> 00:41:07,220
what we want to do . 

1042
00:41:09,710 --> 00:41:11,740
Your presentation was amazing and 

1043
00:41:11,740 --> 00:41:13,907
you've obviously put a lot of research 

1044
00:41:13,907 --> 00:41:16,600
into this with a very detailed visible 

1045
00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:19,570
plan for sailors to better understand 

1046
00:41:19,580 --> 00:41:22,130
the retirement system . My question for 

1047
00:41:22,130 --> 00:41:24,370
you is does the Navy , does Navy 

1048
00:41:24,370 --> 00:41:26,590
personnel command have an existing 

1049
00:41:26,590 --> 00:41:28,930
website with this comprehensive 

1050
00:41:28,930 --> 00:41:31,152
retirement information available to the 

1051
00:41:31,152 --> 00:41:33,460
average sailor ? And if not , do you 

1052
00:41:33,460 --> 00:41:36,840
know of any efforts to do so I'll take 

1053
00:41:36,850 --> 00:41:39,072
that one . Absolutely . Chief select my 

1054
00:41:39,072 --> 00:41:42,470
Navy Hr dot navy dot mil and thank you 

1055
00:41:42,470 --> 00:41:44,670
for the opportunity to signal boost 

1056
00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:47,200
because that website alone has 

1057
00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:49,610
transitioned the U . R . L . Has 

1058
00:41:49,610 --> 00:41:51,930
changed a lot of our great area 

1059
00:41:51,930 --> 00:41:54,460
retirees were familiar with going to 

1060
00:41:54,460 --> 00:41:58,000
bumpers NPC . And so one of the things 

1061
00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:00,056
that I do when I call our great area 

1062
00:42:00,056 --> 00:42:02,278
retirees on the phone , one sailor at a 

1063
00:42:02,278 --> 00:42:04,930
time is even if I get only their voice 

1064
00:42:04,930 --> 00:42:08,450
mail , I leave the steer too . That my 

1065
00:42:08,450 --> 00:42:12,310
Navy Hr dot navy dot mil website and I 

1066
00:42:12,310 --> 00:42:15,070
tell them when you get there to my Navy 

1067
00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:18,750
Hr dot navy dot mil . Use the search 

1068
00:42:18,750 --> 00:42:21,450
bar and search reserve retirements . 

1069
00:42:21,470 --> 00:42:23,570
You will get right to the page that 

1070
00:42:23,570 --> 00:42:25,570
tells you what forms you need to do 

1071
00:42:25,570 --> 00:42:27,681
where to mail them . And we also have 

1072
00:42:27,681 --> 00:42:29,848

1073
00:42:29,848 --> 00:42:31,570
so I know what's on there . It 

1074
00:42:31,570 --> 00:42:34,810
literally gives the short burst of what 

1075
00:42:34,820 --> 00:42:36,987
you need to know to correctly fill out 

1076
00:42:36,987 --> 00:42:40,730
your forms further the R . T . O team . 

1077
00:42:40,740 --> 00:42:43,070
Our team has a sub page right there 

1078
00:42:43,070 --> 00:42:45,440
within reserve retirements and we have 

1079
00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:47,440

00:43:10,970 --> 00:43:13,192
Lieutenant Commander Jonathan calhoun . 

1093
00:43:13,192 --> 00:43:15,414
How are you feeling being today's final 

1094
00:43:15,414 --> 00:43:17,637
presenter , ma'am . I'm just honored to 

1095
00:43:17,637 --> 00:43:19,748
be here with such an impressive group 

1096
00:43:19,748 --> 00:43:18,950
of finalists and look forward to 

1097
00:43:18,950 --> 00:43:21,061
speaking with the judges . You're the 

1098
00:43:21,061 --> 00:43:23,117
last one episode . Hit it out of the 

1099
00:43:23,117 --> 00:43:22,380
park . Thank you , ma'am . 

1100
00:43:37,050 --> 00:43:39,217
Admiral . Distinguished panelists . My 

1101
00:43:39,217 --> 00:43:41,550
name is Lieutenant Commander , Jonathan , 

1102
00:43:41,550 --> 00:43:43,550
calhoun and thank you for your time 

1103
00:43:43,550 --> 00:43:45,661
today , Admiral . In your most recent 

1104
00:43:45,661 --> 00:43:47,661
fighting instructions , you said we 

1105
00:43:47,661 --> 00:43:49,439
must ensure our ability to mass 

1106
00:43:49,439 --> 00:43:52,460
mobilize predictably at scale . And 

1107
00:43:52,460 --> 00:43:55,010
with seamless administrative activation 

1108
00:43:55,010 --> 00:43:57,770
workflows , Our unit participated in 

1109
00:43:57,770 --> 00:43:59,659
one of the mobilization exercises 

1110
00:43:59,659 --> 00:44:01,659
earlier this year . And having gone 

1111
00:44:01,659 --> 00:44:03,714
through that process . I think there 

1112
00:44:03,714 --> 00:44:05,826
are some ways that we can improve and 

1113
00:44:05,826 --> 00:44:08,040
further optimize the process . So my 

1114
00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:11,500
idea is on leveraging mobile technology 

1115
00:44:11,510 --> 00:44:13,790
in order to streamline the distributed 

1116
00:44:13,790 --> 00:44:15,790
mobilization process while saving 

1117
00:44:15,790 --> 00:44:18,640
valuable time for both sailors and Navy 

1118
00:44:18,640 --> 00:44:20,880
Reserve Center Staff . So when we 

1119
00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:23,047
completed the most recent mobilization 

1120
00:44:23,047 --> 00:44:25,930
exercise I realize three things . One . 

1121
00:44:25,940 --> 00:44:28,060
Not all sailors have the ability to 

1122
00:44:28,060 --> 00:44:31,100
quickly access CAC enabled sites as 

1123
00:44:31,100 --> 00:44:34,200
well as Navy email two Navy Reserve 

1124
00:44:34,200 --> 00:44:36,230
Center Staff all of a sudden had an 

1125
00:44:36,240 --> 00:44:38,960
influx in their inbox full of either 

1126
00:44:38,970 --> 00:44:41,700
partially or inaccurately completed 

1127
00:44:41,700 --> 00:44:44,680
documentation , resulting in more back 

1128
00:44:44,680 --> 00:44:47,930
and forth email and lastly , unit 

1129
00:44:47,930 --> 00:44:50,980
leadership had no real time visibility 

1130
00:44:50,990 --> 00:44:52,990
into the status of where their unit 

1131
00:44:52,990 --> 00:44:55,157
members stood in the submission of the 

1132
00:44:55,157 --> 00:44:57,157
various mobilization administrative 

1133
00:44:57,157 --> 00:44:59,323
requirements . So this process full of 

1134
00:44:59,323 --> 00:45:01,210
non standardized many times . 

1135
00:45:01,210 --> 00:45:04,220
Duplicative administrative requirements 

1136
00:45:04,220 --> 00:45:06,250
will make it difficult to mobilize 

1137
00:45:06,250 --> 00:45:09,270
close to 50,000 sailors within a 30 day 

1138
00:45:09,270 --> 00:45:11,920
time period . So in my civilian were 

1139
00:45:11,930 --> 00:45:14,041
career I work in banking where I have 

1140
00:45:14,041 --> 00:45:16,370
the opportunity to meet a number of 

1141
00:45:16,380 --> 00:45:18,460
innovative up and coming technology 

1142
00:45:18,460 --> 00:45:21,130
companies And a few months ago a board 

1143
00:45:21,130 --> 00:45:23,352
member for one of my clients introduced 

1144
00:45:23,352 --> 00:45:25,241
me to another company that he was 

1145
00:45:25,241 --> 00:45:27,463
working with , a company that's focused 

1146
00:45:27,463 --> 00:45:30,220
solely on providing mobile technology 

1147
00:45:30,290 --> 00:45:32,750
for use by the US military . And our 

1148
00:45:32,750 --> 00:45:34,806
meeting was shortly after I had gone 

1149
00:45:34,806 --> 00:45:36,972
through the mobilization exercise . So 

1150
00:45:36,972 --> 00:45:38,917
it's still fresh in my mind and in 

1151
00:45:38,917 --> 00:45:41,083
sharing my experience with them , they 

1152
00:45:41,083 --> 00:45:43,139
quickly identified that this was the 

1153
00:45:43,139 --> 00:45:45,083
exact type of problem that they're 

1154
00:45:45,083 --> 00:45:47,139
currently solving today for multiple 

1155
00:45:47,139 --> 00:45:49,250
branches within the dod . So while we 

1156
00:45:49,250 --> 00:45:51,250
were discussing ways to address the 

1157
00:45:51,250 --> 00:45:53,417
various challenges from the exercise , 

1158
00:45:53,417 --> 00:45:55,472
it became clear that by shifting the 

1159
00:45:55,472 --> 00:45:57,028
administrative mobilization 

1160
00:45:57,028 --> 00:45:59,110
requirements as well as all the back 

1161
00:45:59,110 --> 00:46:01,660
and forth communication to a mobile 

1162
00:46:01,660 --> 00:46:04,570
platform . You're reaching every sailor 

1163
00:46:04,580 --> 00:46:06,913
in a much more timely and efficient way . 

1164
00:46:07,580 --> 00:46:09,524
So I think the impact would create 

1165
00:46:09,524 --> 00:46:11,636
three main improvements . So first of 

1166
00:46:11,636 --> 00:46:14,050
all reduce the time that it takes for 

1167
00:46:14,050 --> 00:46:17,350
sailors to receive and respond to the 

1168
00:46:17,350 --> 00:46:19,370
administrative requests by auto 

1169
00:46:19,370 --> 00:46:22,310
populating data fields with information 

1170
00:46:22,310 --> 00:46:25,140
that we already have on file , name , 

1171
00:46:25,150 --> 00:46:28,520
address , date of birth etcetera and 

1172
00:46:28,520 --> 00:46:30,353
then allowing the sailor to just 

1173
00:46:30,353 --> 00:46:33,180
confirm or update the other a mobile 

1174
00:46:33,190 --> 00:46:36,240
app on their phone . Um as opposed to 

1175
00:46:36,250 --> 00:46:38,306
completing the document from scratch 

1176
00:46:38,306 --> 00:46:40,417
and sending it back . The email . And 

1177
00:46:40,417 --> 00:46:42,850
second benefit would be to provide real 

1178
00:46:42,850 --> 00:46:45,310
time visibility into the status of each 

1179
00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:48,320
requirement for both the sailor as well 

1180
00:46:48,320 --> 00:46:50,431
as leadership as to whether or not it 

1181
00:46:50,431 --> 00:46:52,653
was completed correctly . And lastly it 

1182
00:46:52,653 --> 00:46:55,300
would enable data and reporting with 

1183
00:46:55,300 --> 00:46:57,950
customizable views for all levels of 

1184
00:46:57,960 --> 00:47:00,270
leadership that doesn't involve 

1185
00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:02,220
collating multiple time late 

1186
00:47:02,220 --> 00:47:04,164
spreadsheets , each in a different 

1187
00:47:04,164 --> 00:47:06,670
format . So in this era of strategic 

1188
00:47:06,670 --> 00:47:09,700
competition we must be ready on day one 

1189
00:47:10,180 --> 00:47:12,440
and by empowering sailors to use their 

1190
00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:14,740
mobile device to complete a significant 

1191
00:47:14,740 --> 00:47:16,629
portion of their pre mobilization 

1192
00:47:16,629 --> 00:47:18,740
administrative requirements , it will 

1193
00:47:18,740 --> 00:47:20,907
improve the overall experience for the 

1194
00:47:20,907 --> 00:47:23,730
modern day sailor as well as ensure 

1195
00:47:23,730 --> 00:47:25,508
warfighting readiness . When we 

1196
00:47:25,508 --> 00:47:27,730
mobilize the force . Thank you for your 

1197
00:47:27,730 --> 00:47:30,700
time . Fantastic . Clearly 

1198
00:47:31,180 --> 00:47:33,500
modernization is critical path for our 

1199
00:47:33,500 --> 00:47:36,140
transformative readiness and our 

1200
00:47:36,150 --> 00:47:38,206
ability to compete in the future . I 

1201
00:47:38,206 --> 00:47:40,530
mean we have got to apply and implement 

1202
00:47:40,540 --> 00:47:42,707
modern technology to do what right now 

1203
00:47:42,707 --> 00:47:45,110
is constrained by legacy systems . So 

1204
00:47:45,120 --> 00:47:47,120
so thank you for reinterpreting and 

1205
00:47:47,120 --> 00:47:49,120
spitting back my language at me . I 

1206
00:47:49,120 --> 00:47:51,287
appreciate that in particular what I'm 

1207
00:47:51,287 --> 00:47:53,150
curious about is as we look to 

1208
00:47:53,150 --> 00:47:55,570
implementation , what kind of timeline 

1209
00:47:55,570 --> 00:47:58,150
do you think is associated with 

1210
00:47:58,160 --> 00:48:00,104
building this some of this ? We're 

1211
00:48:00,104 --> 00:48:02,160
building from scratch some of this . 

1212
00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:01,780
We're going to leverage existing 

1213
00:48:01,980 --> 00:48:04,400
databases or other systems . How long 

1214
00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:06,511
would it take for us to see this come 

1215
00:48:06,511 --> 00:48:08,733
to fruition , correct . And I think the 

1216
00:48:08,733 --> 00:48:10,622
key here is leveraging . What has 

1217
00:48:10,622 --> 00:48:12,789
already been done before . There are a 

1218
00:48:12,789 --> 00:48:14,844
number of companies that are working 

1219
00:48:14,844 --> 00:48:17,011
with the D O D today that have already 

1220
00:48:17,011 --> 00:48:19,067
started to use the mobile devices in 

1221
00:48:19,067 --> 00:48:21,200
order to have apps as well as sites 

1222
00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:23,870
that can be accessed . Um and then even 

1223
00:48:23,870 --> 00:48:25,981
just a few years ago ready to serve , 

1224
00:48:25,981 --> 00:48:28,203
even though it had a CAC enabled , that 

1225
00:48:28,203 --> 00:48:32,080
was a huge huge benefit for for 

1226
00:48:32,080 --> 00:48:34,340
reservists who needed to have access to 

1227
00:48:34,350 --> 00:48:37,210
in rows and websites um when they were 

1228
00:48:37,210 --> 00:48:40,270
traveling . Um so I think that the key 

1229
00:48:40,270 --> 00:48:42,770
to a quick implementation is partnering 

1230
00:48:42,770 --> 00:48:45,650
with a third party technology provider 

1231
00:48:45,660 --> 00:48:47,240
that already has done the 

1232
00:48:47,250 --> 00:48:49,417
infrastructure work both on the mobile 

1233
00:48:49,417 --> 00:48:51,850
app side and most importantly on the 

1234
00:48:51,850 --> 00:48:54,240
security and encryption on the back end 

1235
00:48:54,240 --> 00:48:56,018
because that is one of the most 

1236
00:48:56,018 --> 00:48:58,129
critical components , especially when 

1237
00:48:58,129 --> 00:49:00,018
you're talking about all the data 

1238
00:49:00,018 --> 00:49:02,073
fields that are provided when you're 

1239
00:49:02,073 --> 00:49:04,296
mobilizing roger that in many disparate 

1240
00:49:04,296 --> 00:49:06,407
systems too but we can certainly work 

1241
00:49:06,407 --> 00:49:08,629
the interfaces on the technology side . 

1242
00:49:08,629 --> 00:49:10,851
Okay . We're very fortunate to have our 

1243
00:49:10,851 --> 00:49:12,851
reserve sale of the year here and I 

1244
00:49:12,851 --> 00:49:12,750
know she's got a couple of penetrating 

1245
00:49:12,750 --> 00:49:15,040
questions for you . Thank you Admiral . 

1246
00:49:15,660 --> 00:49:17,993
Thank you so much for your presentation . 

1247
00:49:17,993 --> 00:49:20,216
It was very informative in the examples 

1248
00:49:20,216 --> 00:49:22,670
that you mentioned of other services 

1249
00:49:22,670 --> 00:49:26,040
doing similar applications . Do you 

1250
00:49:26,040 --> 00:49:28,060
know how they migrated the privacy 

1251
00:49:28,060 --> 00:49:30,550
issues presented by P . Ii or Hipaa . 

1252
00:49:30,560 --> 00:49:32,560
And were there any such issues that 

1253
00:49:32,560 --> 00:49:34,950
they could not overcome ? So I don't 

1254
00:49:34,950 --> 00:49:37,117
have any specific issues that couldn't 

1255
00:49:37,117 --> 00:49:39,339
overcome but I know that in the company 

1256
00:49:39,339 --> 00:49:40,950
based off of the individuals 

1257
00:49:40,950 --> 00:49:43,480
backgrounds , both on the military side 

1258
00:49:43,480 --> 00:49:45,647
as well as the I . T . Security side . 

1259
00:49:45,647 --> 00:49:49,170
Having that P I I . Was . Was critical 

1260
00:49:49,960 --> 00:49:53,030
and so that was one of the things that 

1261
00:49:53,030 --> 00:49:54,752
first and foremost when you're 

1262
00:49:54,752 --> 00:49:57,000
communicating Through a personal device 

1263
00:49:57,160 --> 00:50:00,370
must be established round one . Um And 

1264
00:50:00,370 --> 00:50:03,950
then in terms of um I'm sorry 

1265
00:50:03,950 --> 00:50:06,117
was the second part of your question . 

1266
00:50:06,160 --> 00:50:10,060
Um how did they 

1267
00:50:10,070 --> 00:50:13,200
mitigate the privacy issues ? And 

1268
00:50:13,200 --> 00:50:15,440
that's that's where the back encryption 

1269
00:50:15,440 --> 00:50:18,080
and security is critical . Okay thank 

1270
00:50:18,080 --> 00:50:20,302
you so much . Thank you sir . Thank you 

1271
00:50:20,302 --> 00:50:22,469
sir . Um Well you hit it on the head a 

1272
00:50:22,469 --> 00:50:24,524
lot of points of some of my concerns 

1273
00:50:24,524 --> 00:50:27,350
with your presentation sur um and 

1274
00:50:27,350 --> 00:50:29,183
really tied into the warfighting 

1275
00:50:29,183 --> 00:50:31,380
readiness piece and obviously more 

1276
00:50:31,380 --> 00:50:35,160
bread . Um So with all the innovations 

1277
00:50:35,160 --> 00:50:37,327
we have now which I'm loving it , this 

1278
00:50:37,327 --> 00:50:39,327
is what we're here for , suppose it 

1279
00:50:39,327 --> 00:50:42,520
goes down what we do . Yeah . So 

1280
00:50:42,530 --> 00:50:45,320
ideally everyone has the mobilization 

1281
00:50:45,320 --> 00:50:48,050
app on their phone , 90% of the 

1282
00:50:48,050 --> 00:50:50,210
information is already pre populated 

1283
00:50:50,220 --> 00:50:52,442
and complete based off of what you have 

1284
00:50:52,442 --> 00:50:54,331
provided previously or during the 

1285
00:50:54,331 --> 00:50:56,840
actual mobilization exercises . And 

1286
00:50:56,840 --> 00:50:59,180
then it's just a matter of going to 

1287
00:50:59,190 --> 00:51:01,246
your Navy Reserve Center to do those 

1288
00:51:01,246 --> 00:51:04,390
final mobilization steps , putting in 

1289
00:51:04,390 --> 00:51:06,910
your CAC CAC signature required in some 

1290
00:51:06,910 --> 00:51:09,800
instances is not necessary . And you're 

1291
00:51:09,800 --> 00:51:12,130
able to finalize that within a 10 to 15 

1292
00:51:12,130 --> 00:51:14,130
minute period as opposed to sending 

1293
00:51:14,130 --> 00:51:16,710
multiple days at a Navy Reserve center 

1294
00:51:16,720 --> 00:51:20,600
waiting to use a computer Especially if 

1295
00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:23,810
there's a force of 50,000 plus . They 

1296
00:51:23,810 --> 00:51:25,890
are going to be very backed up and 

1297
00:51:25,890 --> 00:51:27,890
resource constraints at each of the 

1298
00:51:27,890 --> 00:51:30,510
Navy reserve centers . Thank you sir 

1299
00:51:31,230 --> 00:51:34,690
chief . So I like it . 

1300
00:51:35,260 --> 00:51:38,290
And my question really is to animal 

1301
00:51:38,290 --> 00:51:41,120
must in and why why haven't you done 

1302
00:51:41,120 --> 00:51:44,060
this yet ? But we got to get busy . 

1303
00:51:44,070 --> 00:51:47,450
But the question I would have you laid 

1304
00:51:47,450 --> 00:51:50,980
out you characterize some of the 

1305
00:51:50,980 --> 00:51:54,080
barriers , you know , private partner 

1306
00:51:54,090 --> 00:51:57,860
uh partnerships with private 

1307
00:51:57,960 --> 00:52:01,940
industry , the the security piece of 

1308
00:52:01,940 --> 00:52:04,740
it . The you know , if it goes down all 

1309
00:52:04,740 --> 00:52:07,230
those kind of characters , what other 

1310
00:52:07,230 --> 00:52:09,880
barriers are there to implementation ? 

1311
00:52:11,650 --> 00:52:13,817
Yes . So I think one of the bearers is 

1312
00:52:13,817 --> 00:52:16,340
going to be the adoption effect and so 

1313
00:52:16,340 --> 00:52:19,150
I think about there are certain Navy 

1314
00:52:19,150 --> 00:52:21,860
sites I think of that are stand alone 

1315
00:52:21,870 --> 00:52:24,230
think of like and fast where you're 

1316
00:52:24,230 --> 00:52:27,030
going there just a couple of times a 

1317
00:52:27,030 --> 00:52:29,630
year you have to have a reminder . This 

1318
00:52:29,630 --> 00:52:31,741
is where I need to go . These are the 

1319
00:52:31,741 --> 00:52:33,908
things that I need to do . I think one 

1320
00:52:33,908 --> 00:52:36,074
of the bearers is going to be , how do 

1321
00:52:36,074 --> 00:52:38,670
we make it so that using the app and 

1322
00:52:38,680 --> 00:52:41,600
and the technology is natural and 

1323
00:52:41,600 --> 00:52:43,767
recurring and I think we can certainly 

1324
00:52:43,767 --> 00:52:46,050
do that through mobilization exercises 

1325
00:52:46,060 --> 00:52:47,949
but I think it's also going to be 

1326
00:52:47,949 --> 00:52:50,004
similar to what we've done with with 

1327
00:52:50,004 --> 00:52:52,200
teams as we use one component within 

1328
00:52:52,200 --> 00:52:54,256
teams . We get more comfortable with 

1329
00:52:54,256 --> 00:52:56,750
using other capabilities and then there 

1330
00:52:56,750 --> 00:52:59,050
are knock on effects and then from that 

1331
00:52:59,060 --> 00:53:01,820
increased adoption . Fantastic . I love 

1332
00:53:01,820 --> 00:53:03,876
where your head is on this and we've 

1333
00:53:03,876 --> 00:53:06,640
got some existing new products that 

1334
00:53:06,640 --> 00:53:08,640
would integrate perfectly with this 

1335
00:53:08,640 --> 00:53:10,807
already , arc is another example where 

1336
00:53:10,807 --> 00:53:12,918
an app based version would make a lot 

1337
00:53:12,918 --> 00:53:15,029
of sense . And I would think to force 

1338
00:53:15,029 --> 00:53:17,251
this point , you know , if the app goes 

1339
00:53:17,251 --> 00:53:19,418
down , there's cloud based storage for 

1340
00:53:19,418 --> 00:53:21,640
all the information so that it could be 

1341
00:53:21,640 --> 00:53:23,862
restored pretty easily . But but I love 

1342
00:53:23,862 --> 00:53:23,790
where your head is . We've got some 

1343
00:53:23,790 --> 00:53:25,957
decisions to make here and we're going 

1344
00:53:25,957 --> 00:53:28,179
to get back to you . But thanks for the 

1345
00:53:28,179 --> 00:53:28,050
great submission . Thanks for the great 

1346
00:53:28,050 --> 00:53:30,900
thinking on this and stand by . Thank 

1347
00:53:30,900 --> 00:53:33,067
you . Thank you everyone . Thank you . 

1348
00:53:34,650 --> 00:53:36,817
Yeah , we're gonna short list a couple 

1349
00:53:36,817 --> 00:53:39,590
of these . You know , one way to do 

1350
00:53:39,590 --> 00:53:42,330
this is is for us each to kind of rank 

1351
00:53:42,330 --> 00:53:44,430
1-5 and and see if there's a natural 

1352
00:53:44,430 --> 00:53:46,670
break on now that we've seen all these 

1353
00:53:46,670 --> 00:53:48,892
great ideas . We've come to the hardest 

1354
00:53:48,892 --> 00:53:50,948
part of the show choosing a winner . 

1355
00:53:59,950 --> 00:54:03,830
All right , well , team after rigorous 

1356
00:54:03,830 --> 00:54:07,080
debate . We've come to conclusion and I 

1357
00:54:07,080 --> 00:54:09,191
will tell you that every one of these 

1358
00:54:09,191 --> 00:54:11,413
ideas was fantastic . And we appreciate 

1359
00:54:11,413 --> 00:54:13,640
you being shortlisted from over 100 

1360
00:54:13,640 --> 00:54:16,740
submissions to the final five . Not 

1361
00:54:16,740 --> 00:54:18,907
surprisingly , every one of your ideas 

1362
00:54:18,907 --> 00:54:21,018
has merit . Some are more implemented 

1363
00:54:21,018 --> 00:54:23,129
ble in a short term . Others are kind 

1364
00:54:23,129 --> 00:54:25,296
of a long burned strategic implication 

1365
00:54:25,340 --> 00:54:27,451
yet every one of them is important to 

1366
00:54:27,451 --> 00:54:29,562
us . So I appreciate your submissions 

1367
00:54:29,562 --> 00:54:31,618
and your willingness to be a part of 

1368
00:54:31,618 --> 00:54:33,562
this force hunt and I are going to 

1369
00:54:33,562 --> 00:54:35,673
award a couple of things for you . So 

1370
00:54:35,673 --> 00:54:38,170
let's come on . All right . 

1371
00:54:40,340 --> 00:54:44,250
Okay . So first commander again and 

1372
00:54:44,250 --> 00:54:46,472
lieutenant did away thank you very much 

1373
00:54:46,472 --> 00:54:48,694
for your thoughtful submissions . I can 

1374
00:54:48,694 --> 00:54:50,806
tell you that there are elements that 

1375
00:54:50,806 --> 00:54:52,528
we are going to take action on 

1376
00:54:52,528 --> 00:54:54,639
immediately . In fact , you know , we 

1377
00:54:54,639 --> 00:54:54,540
are via the R . T . O . Effort and what 

1378
00:54:54,540 --> 00:54:56,318
we're doing with our retirement 

1379
00:54:56,318 --> 00:54:58,484
workshops , we're going to continue to 

1380
00:54:58,484 --> 00:54:58,410
aggressively address this and we're 

1381
00:54:58,410 --> 00:55:00,299
going to seek your leadership and 

1382
00:55:00,299 --> 00:55:02,410
bringing this to fruition . Thank you 

1383
00:55:02,410 --> 00:55:04,577
very much for uh for your being here . 

1384
00:55:04,577 --> 00:55:06,880
And I am happy to award you this on our 

1385
00:55:06,890 --> 00:55:08,946
inaugural I three way points . Thank 

1386
00:55:08,946 --> 00:55:10,834
you very much . Thank you ma'am . 

1387
00:55:10,834 --> 00:55:13,300
Alright , lieutenant . Well done . 

1388
00:55:13,810 --> 00:55:15,921
Great presentation . Supposed to make 

1389
00:55:15,921 --> 00:55:18,880
your acquaintance . All right . Alright . 

1390
00:55:18,890 --> 00:55:22,000
Thanks . All right . 

1391
00:55:22,740 --> 00:55:25,970
What's that ? Lieutenant , 

1392
00:55:26,830 --> 00:55:29,710
love your idea . I will tell you that 

1393
00:55:29,710 --> 00:55:31,930
what you have suggested to us is a 

1394
00:55:31,930 --> 00:55:34,152
policy change and that's something that 

1395
00:55:34,152 --> 00:55:36,208
I'm going to get busy on immediately 

1396
00:55:36,208 --> 00:55:38,374
with my N one . Okay , so my personnel 

1397
00:55:38,374 --> 00:55:40,541
folks , we're going to talk about what 

1398
00:55:40,541 --> 00:55:42,708
it takes across D . O . D . To add the 

1399
00:55:42,708 --> 00:55:44,874
technician category to what we already 

1400
00:55:44,874 --> 00:55:48,870
do as I ar cel rez and Tar , I 

1401
00:55:48,870 --> 00:55:51,190
wish that I could do this faster . It 

1402
00:55:51,190 --> 00:55:53,430
may be a slow burn , but it is probably 

1403
00:55:53,430 --> 00:55:55,580
the most strategic of the submissions 

1404
00:55:55,590 --> 00:55:58,040
out of 107 that we received . So I 

1405
00:55:58,040 --> 00:56:00,262
appreciate your great thinking . I know 

1406
00:56:00,262 --> 00:56:02,207
that admiral Galina said , Nazi is 

1407
00:56:02,207 --> 00:56:04,373
equally appreciative of the way you're 

1408
00:56:04,373 --> 00:56:06,540
approaching this , but thank you , sir 

1409
00:56:06,540 --> 00:56:08,540
for being a part of this and it's a 

1410
00:56:08,540 --> 00:56:07,690
pleasure to make your acquaintance . 

1411
00:56:09,330 --> 00:56:13,140
Thanks . Okay . Which leaves us with 

1412
00:56:13,140 --> 00:56:16,270
two . Both of your submissions were 

1413
00:56:16,270 --> 00:56:19,630
fantastic , intriguing for me as a 

1414
00:56:19,640 --> 00:56:23,080
marketing technology veteran . And I 

1415
00:56:23,080 --> 00:56:25,247
can tell you that I hold dear the need 

1416
00:56:25,247 --> 00:56:27,136
for us to communicate effectively 

1417
00:56:27,136 --> 00:56:29,302
efficiently and also to make sure that 

1418
00:56:29,302 --> 00:56:31,413
we can affect at scale the ability to 

1419
00:56:31,413 --> 00:56:33,430
mobilize . There is great overlap 

1420
00:56:33,440 --> 00:56:35,496
between your submissions . In fact , 

1421
00:56:35,496 --> 00:56:37,607
part of our deliberations included us 

1422
00:56:37,607 --> 00:56:39,718
saying what if we awarded both of you 

1423
00:56:39,718 --> 00:56:39,610
and said you guys get together and 

1424
00:56:39,610 --> 00:56:41,554
figure out how to do both of these 

1425
00:56:41,554 --> 00:56:43,666
things simultaneously . And yet there 

1426
00:56:43,666 --> 00:56:45,777
is a bit of a Sophie's choice here in 

1427
00:56:45,777 --> 00:56:49,720
this case bobby , we're going to go and 

1428
00:56:49,720 --> 00:56:51,950
thank you for your input and tell you 

1429
00:56:51,960 --> 00:56:54,182
that we're gonna follow up with you and 

1430
00:56:54,182 --> 00:56:56,293
we will implement everything that you 

1431
00:56:56,293 --> 00:56:58,516
described whether that's via Youtube or 

1432
00:56:58,516 --> 00:57:00,738
another branded submission , but I want 

1433
00:57:00,738 --> 00:57:02,738
to pick your brain on that and many 

1434
00:57:02,738 --> 00:57:04,849
other things that you suggested and I 

1435
00:57:04,849 --> 00:57:06,738
can tell , I can tell that we are 

1436
00:57:06,738 --> 00:57:08,904
similar characters with an interest in 

1437
00:57:08,904 --> 00:57:11,016
innovation and technology . So I want 

1438
00:57:11,016 --> 00:57:10,590
to pick your brain more . So thank you 

1439
00:57:10,590 --> 00:57:12,534
for your great submission and your 

1440
00:57:12,534 --> 00:57:14,312
fantastic presentation . That's 

1441
00:57:14,312 --> 00:57:18,170
wonderful . Which brings us to 

1442
00:57:18,170 --> 00:57:21,180
Lieutenant Commander calhoun . What you 

1443
00:57:21,180 --> 00:57:23,920
described is something that I feel I'm 

1444
00:57:23,920 --> 00:57:25,870
already behind in implementing and 

1445
00:57:25,870 --> 00:57:27,759
something that we have got to get 

1446
00:57:27,759 --> 00:57:29,926
rolled out for our reserve force to be 

1447
00:57:29,926 --> 00:57:32,092
ready to mobilize at scale efficiently 

1448
00:57:32,310 --> 00:57:34,940
and with certainty to eliminate errors 

1449
00:57:34,940 --> 00:57:36,970
to reduce administrative overhead . 

1450
00:57:37,180 --> 00:57:39,291
We've got to get busy on this . There 

1451
00:57:39,291 --> 00:57:40,902
are several elements of your 

1452
00:57:40,902 --> 00:57:42,847
presentation that are still TBD in 

1453
00:57:42,847 --> 00:57:45,069
terms of cost and time to implement and 

1454
00:57:45,069 --> 00:57:46,960
access to different databases and 

1455
00:57:46,960 --> 00:57:49,340
systems . So I can't promise you that 

1456
00:57:49,340 --> 00:57:51,451
this is something that we're going to 

1457
00:57:51,451 --> 00:57:53,562
be able to go live on immediately . I 

1458
00:57:53,562 --> 00:57:55,673
love your aspirational description of 

1459
00:57:55,673 --> 00:57:57,980
about a 2-3 week pilot . I would say we 

1460
00:57:57,980 --> 00:57:59,758
probably have some requirements 

1461
00:57:59,758 --> 00:58:01,369
definition some features and 

1462
00:58:01,369 --> 00:58:03,202
functionality discussions to get 

1463
00:58:03,202 --> 00:58:05,369
through . But what you described would 

1464
00:58:05,369 --> 00:58:07,536
touch every one of our sailors and you 

1465
00:58:07,536 --> 00:58:09,591
said save an hour . I would tell you 

1466
00:58:09,591 --> 00:58:11,536
probably would save many weeks per 

1467
00:58:11,536 --> 00:58:13,647
person . So there's cost efficiencies 

1468
00:58:13,647 --> 00:58:15,480
there . There's certainly a cost 

1469
00:58:15,480 --> 00:58:17,702
investment up front to make this work . 

1470
00:58:17,702 --> 00:58:17,380
But we're going to figure out those 

1471
00:58:17,380 --> 00:58:19,460
details together and I will have my 

1472
00:58:19,460 --> 00:58:21,150
insects , Captain Chris Pepel 

1473
00:58:21,330 --> 00:58:23,552
immediately contact you and we're going 

1474
00:58:23,552 --> 00:58:25,719
to get started on how we can do this . 

1475
00:58:25,719 --> 00:58:27,830
My hope would be that when we convene 

1476
00:58:27,830 --> 00:58:29,719
for the second of our I three way 

1477
00:58:29,719 --> 00:58:31,886
points roughly a year from now . We're 

1478
00:58:31,886 --> 00:58:33,886
going to provide an update with you 

1479
00:58:33,886 --> 00:58:35,719
here to say how we doing . Is it 

1480
00:58:35,719 --> 00:58:37,719
already on the street ? We're still 

1481
00:58:37,719 --> 00:58:39,830
working it . What is required to make 

1482
00:58:39,830 --> 00:58:41,997
it happen , But I want to get busy and 

1483
00:58:41,997 --> 00:58:44,274
frankly , we're already behind on this . 

1484
00:58:44,274 --> 00:58:46,274
So congratulations . Thank you very 

1485
00:58:46,274 --> 00:58:48,163
much for your great ideas for the 

1486
00:58:48,163 --> 00:58:50,274
thoughtful presentation , and it's my 

1487
00:58:50,274 --> 00:58:52,219
privilege to award you the first I 

1488
00:58:52,219 --> 00:58:51,800
