00:00I guess when we flew in, it did look a little bit like Utah in the wintertime, only there
00:08are substantial portions of this land that are always covered in ice and it doesn't change.
00:15I really enjoyed talking to a number of you a little while ago as you were telling me
00:19that when you're deployed here, you're deployed here for a year, a year without your family,
00:24without your spouse, without your children.
00:27That is emblematic of so many of the sacrifices that so many of our armed services personnel
00:32make.
00:33And my conversations with our airmen and guardians this afternoon reminded me of the fact that
00:40the American people are indeed in good hands, they're in your hands.
00:45What you do here makes us safer.
00:48And when we're going about our business, our day-to-day lives at home, we don't have to
00:54worry about the things that you worry about because you're doing it for us.
00:58Thank you so much for that.
01:00And I look forward to learning more about what you do here and about the future of the
01:06United States and its interaction with this amazing land in this part of the world.
