 Hello, team. I'm Vice Admiral John Mustin, the 15th Chief of the Navy Reserve. Leading the greatest reserve force in the world is my highest honor and privilege. I'm going to take about 90 seconds to share a few thoughts with you as I take command. First, I want you to know our mission as reserve sailors and officers is incredibly important. As a reserve force, what we do and how we do it is seamlessly integrated into our Navy's operations in every domain. Our Navy, Marine Corps, and joint leaders depend on the strategic depth we contribute to national security. As well as the operational support we provide every single day around the world in every theater of the globe. Collectively, we're a force that is, by design and by necessity, focused on being ready to win. Ready to win isn't a bumper sticker. It's a promise to our nation that each of us is trained, available, and ready to win when we arrive on station. That is, on day one, we will arrive ready to think creatively, operate boldly, and generate a leverage multiplier to our nation's combat power. To that end, I seek your commitment that you're going to get and remain tactically, operationally, and strategically ready. In return for your commitment, you have my assurance that my staff and I will work tirelessly to remove administrative barriers, any inefficiencies or roadblocks that impact your ability to deliver. In closing, you have much to be proud of. We are doing many things well, and yet we still have much to do. I am energized by the road ahead, and I know we're going to accomplish great things together. Most importantly, I look forward to seeing you in the fleet. Keep up the great work. Now let's get busy.
